Somebody That I Used To Know


Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
I told myself that you were right for me 
But felt so lonely in your company 
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember 
You can get addicted to a certain kinds sadness 
Like resignation to the end, always the end 
So when we found that we could not make sense 
Well you said that we would still be friends 
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over 

But you didn't have to cut me off 
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing 
I don't need your love, but you treat me like a stranger 
And that feels so rough 
No, you didn't have to stoop so low 
Have your friends collect your records 
And then change your number 
Guess that I don't need that though 
Now you're just somebody that I used to know 

Now and then i think of all the times you screwed me over 
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done 
But I don't wanna live that way 
Reading into every word you say 
You said that you could let it go 
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know 

But you didn't have to cut me off 
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing 
I don't need your love, but you treat me like a stranger 
And that feels so rough 
No, you didn't have to stoop so low 
Have your friends collect your records 
And then change your number 
Guess that I don't need that though 
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
