Dear her..
Now and then i think of when we were together, like when you said you felt so happy you could die. i told myself [we’d be friends forever, always enjoyed each others] company, but that was love now its an ache i still remember.
you can get addicted to a certain kind of [friendship,] like [being with someone] to the end. always the end. so when we found that we could not make sense. [we agreed that we would not be friends] but ill admit [im not glad it is over, so you didn’t have to call me names, act like we were never friends] and that we were nothing. and i don’t even need [you though] but you treat me like a stranger and i feel so rough. no, you didn’t have to stoop so low, [turn your back on me and act like the past years never mattered. i know] i don’t need that though.
now your just somebody that i use to know, now your just somebody that i use to know, now your just somebody that i use to know.
now and then i think of all the times you screwed me over, but had me believing it was always something that id done. and i don’t wanna live that way. reading into every word you say. [but i don’t want to let this go, truth is i miss you but you are just] somebody that [i] use to know.
[so you didn’t have to call me names, act like we were never friends] and that we were nothing. and i don’t even need [you though] but you treat me like a stranger and i feel so rough. no, you didn’t have to stoop so low, [turn your back on me and act like the past years never mattered. i know] that i don’t need that though.
now your just somebody that i use to know, somebody, i use to know. somebody. now your just somebody that i use to know……..
my paraphrasing of the song “somebody i use to know” by gotye.
