    I was 18 when this song came out and it coincided perfectly with my highschool sweetheart moving to another country and us ending it. We tried the whole long distance thing (Skype in 2012/2013 was not nearly as popular as today lol) I just remember us meeting there every couple of days and each time you could just tell things were slipping through the cracks. She finally told me we both deserved to go our own ways, and this song came out the week that it happened, ultimately being the catalyst behind reality sinking in that the fairy-tail was over.
    This song always reminds me of those moments - it always takes me right back as if at all happened yesterday. It may sound sad but I made peace with it a long time ago, and as I get older I actually find it kind of comforting to have a time capsule that vividly reminds me of those times.

    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 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
    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
    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 (aah-ooh)
    And I don't even need your love (ooh)
    But you treat me like a stranger, and that feels so rough (aah)
    No, you didn't have to stoop so low (ooh)
    Have your friends collect your records and then change your number (aah)
    I guess that I don't need that, though
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know
    Somebody (I used to know)
    Somebody (now you're just somebody that I used to know)
    Somebody (I used to know)
    Somebody (now you're just somebody that I used to know)
    I used to know
    That I used to know
    I used to know
    Somebody

      I'd be honored if some fans of '010s nostalgia who appreciate 80s/90s classics would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal YT performances of PURPLE RAIN by Prince ua-cam.com/video/Db-tWlDyFWM/v-deo.html and PRAYING FOR TIME by George Michael in tribute to 2 of the greatest vocalist-songwriters in music history. Live acoustic with no autotune. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
