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 kinda 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 even 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 you're just somebody that I used to know
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 believin it was always something that I'd done
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/somebody-that-i-used-to-know-lyrics-gotye.html ]
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-oh-oh
But you didn't have cut me off
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing (oh)
I don't even need your love, but you treat me like a stranger
and that feels so rough
(oh)
No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect you records
And then change your number (oh)
Guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody that I used to know
Somebody (now your just somebody that I used to know)
That I used to know
Somebody that I used to know
Somebody (somebody) (now your just somebody that I used to know)
That I used to know
I used to know
That I used to know
I used to know
Somebody

k8ykat, I can totally relate... I'm experiencing this strange mix of feelings right now... my "best" friend of 13 years and a new "friend" of about a year ... sneaking behind my back ... i miss them both and yet i know it's gone forever... betrayal is an interesting teacher...

amazingly enough, this song describes my relationship with a friend of mine, only he and i were never a couple, it just seemed like it at times.

This song meant a lot to me and kinda sums up a lot of things but also the person that did the meaning to the lyrics -__- obviously the didn't see that she broke a promise and he just still wanted to know her and maybe that person should back off because obviously they don't know
xxxx-ivy-xxxx
they're not hateful, they're offended and they miss each other, a strange mix of feelings.
