Somebody That I Used to Know
Angie Lyrics

Now and then I think of when we were together
After we broke up, I still think about our time together

Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
I remember when you told me how happy you were

I told myself that you were right for me
I convinced myself that we were meant to be together

But felt so lonely in your company
But I was always so lonely when I was with you

But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
I now realize that was love, even though it still hurts

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
It's easy to become accustomed to feeling sad

Like resignation to the end, always the end
Accepting that it's over, and it'll never change

So when we found that we could not make sense
When we had problems and couldn't make things work

Well you said that we would still be friends
You said we'd still be friends, without any hard feelings

But I'll admit that I was glad it was over
But, to be honest, I'm happy it's done

But you didn't have to cut me off
You didn't need to completely cut me out of your life

Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
Act like our relationship never occurred, and we were nothing

And I don't even need your love
I don't require your love

But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
But treating me like a stranger feels harsh

No you didn't have to stoop so low
You didn't need to be so hateful

Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
Passing my personal items and then changing contact information was unnecessary

Guess that I don't need that though
Although it hurts, I don't really miss that situation

Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now, you're simply an individual from my past

Now you're just somebody that I used to know
You're nothing more than an old acquaintance at this point

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
Sometimes, I think about all the times you hurt me

But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And even though it was your fault, you convinced me it was mine

But I don't wanna live that way
But I don't want to live my life like that anymore

Reading into every word you say
Trying to read too much into every little thing you say

You said that you could let it go
But you told me you could move on from the situation

And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
I wouldn't find out that you're still thinking about someone from your past

(I used to know)

(I used to know)

(I used to know)
