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 1 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 that it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off

Make out 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

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 and then I think of all the times you screwed me over

But had me believing it was always something that I'd done

And 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 out 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

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

I used to know

That I used to know

Somebody



偶尔会想起我们还在一起的时候

像当你说你高兴的几乎要死了

告诉自己你是对的选择

可在你身边仍觉得孤单

但那就是爱 也是我忘不掉的伤痛

你会沉迷于某种悲伤中

像无可奈何到最后 总是这样到最后

于是当我们发现彼此间并不来电时

你说我们还是做朋友吧

但我要承认我当时也为解脱了而高兴

可是你不必这样绝情

弄得像我们曾经什麼也没有发生过

好像我们什么都不是

我根本不需要你的爱

可你却视我如同路人一般

让我觉得（这种做法）太粗暴

你不必如此薄情吧

让你朋友来帮收拾东西

接着换掉手机号码

我猜我也不需要了

现在我们只是最熟悉的陌生人

前女友：

偶尔我会想起你招惹我的那些时候

能让我相信的我们曾经的事也只有它了

我不想再过那样的生活了

从你说的每句话中揣度字里行间的意思

你说了你可以放下这段感情的

而我也不理解你还挂念着你曾经熟悉的某人（指自己）

可是你不必这样绝情

弄得像我们什么都没发生过也毫无瓜葛

我可以不需要你的爱

可你却视我如同路人一般

我感到（这种行为）很粗暴

你不必如此薄情

让你朋友来帮收拾东西

接着换掉手机号码

我想我也不需要了

现在我们只是最熟悉的陌生人

曾经相识

曾经相识的

那个人
