Somebody That I Used To Know Sunday, March 04, 2012

     It was about 2am when I first heard this song, maybe it was lack of sleep or maybe it was because I was insanely exhausted from the day before that I kind of just wrote it off and didn't really pay any attention to it. I heard it again a few weeks later and this time I really listened to it... boy did I feel stupid for just ignoring it. It's easy for me to relate to this song mostly because my last 'boyfriend' and I did this to each other. After a rough breakup we let ourselves become strangers.Not at all how I would have liked for things to go but sometimes you don't really have a choice in the matter.  Obviously if I could go back and do things over it'd be different, I would have not said so many things I didn't mean. Now, for me, it's really hard to get close to any guy. My best friend likes to say that my walls are high and thick "No ones ever going to knock 'em down." Which for my sake I hope she's wrong. I'm trying to tear down my own walls... I guess its just going to have to take some time.
Hasta la proxima amigos.


Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
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 kind of 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 it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing
And 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
I 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 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
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
And you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know



-love & rockets
