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
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
= My relationship. And I can’t even talk about it with any of my friends. I can’t even talk to him about how I feel because he just judges me on every little thing that makes me, me. He doesn’t want me, he wants someone that he used to know. Maybe Caity considering he’s really sensitive when it comes to me seeing her. Or maybe he wants me to be ‘Sami’, the pageant winner. I mean all he looks at on facebook is her page and all of her pictures. heh, if you can’t have me, then don’t think you even have even the mildest chance with her. She’s an upgrade from me and I doubt she’ll put up with your bullshit like I have. I have sat here taking your judgement, your mockery of my life, your constant “hot n cold” act, and your not creative thoughts for almost 6 months now. I’m at the point where I have to fight MYSELF to continue to find reason to date you. I have to CONVINCE myself to stay with you when I wake up in the morning. Is that how a relationship should be? No. And don’t say this is my fault because it is NOT. I have tried to get you to listen to me, I’ve tried talking to you, i’ve tried ignoring your bad decisions. I can honestly say at this point, I can’t even fully care about you anymore. I have to just think “I don’t care if he fucks up his life. I don’t care if he screws up his truck. I don’t care if he drinks all the fucking time! I don’t care that he’s not going anywhere with his life.” And look where that’s got us. You’re more than frustrated with me because i’m done making up excuses for your behavior, and that I don’t say anything. I can’t talk when i’m around you because I’m afraid you’ll yell at me or make fun of me in some way. Is that what you want? A girlfriend that’s afraid of you. Well CONGRATU-FUCKING-LATIONS! You have succeeded in having a girlfriend afraid of you. But not in a way that it matters. I just won’t say anything to you. Very few words, will you get out of me from now on.
“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 want to live that way.”
