    The song is about a dysfunctional relationship. The male vocals describe what happened in that relationship from his point of view. It started off well, with the woman very invested in him. However, he was not fulfilled by her. Even though he was unhappy, he remained in the relationship because he was "addicted to a certain kind of sadness" and was resigned to it. In the end, he was dumped by the woman, who took steps to completely remove him from her life, including changing her number and having her friends get her things from his apartment. She did these things even though she had said that they would remain friends. Although he was happy the bad relationship was over, he is hurt by the fact that she now treats him like a stranger without any regard for what they used to have.
    The female vocals then describe the same relationship from her point of view. In her eyes, the relationship was also dysfunctional; he had been somewhat verbally abusive by always blaming her for every problem they had. In addition, he had been hung up on another woman. He had promised that he had gotten over it when in reality he had not. The singer eventually tires of this situation, finding it frustrating and hurtful, and ends the relationship by cutting him off entirely.
    The video symbolizes the story with the paint - Gotye starts off as his current self, reminiscing. As he mentally enters his memories of the old relationship, the paint and lines slowly cover his entire body. Kimbra comes in fully painted (except for her face, which I admit doesn't really fit with my interpretation), indicating that at this point in the song, she is in the relationship with him. She moves closer to him as she breaks up with him, then moves away as she cuts him off. The paint is removed from her body as she moves on with her life. However, Gotye has not yet moved on, so he remains painted.

    "Told myself that you were right for me, but felt so lonely in your company." It hurts when you love someone so bad and you're trying to convince yourself they're meant for you, but that person doesn't care as much as you did and just leaves like nothing. I wish you had been meant for me, you made me so happy, but it just couldn't happen, what did i do wrong? I always made excuses for you and how you acted, it was just a bad day, maybe i annoyed him, he's just like that, but you simply just never cared for me, it never really felt like you were there for me.

No you are not easily angered Bc youre an Aries no you don't like the color black bc you're a Scorpio no youre not lazy bc you're a taurus literally sloth is a sin and black is the color of darkness and God is the light and the demons hate God so they love the dark and when I started following God he opened me and my sisters eyes to realize zodiac signs aren't real many go too astrology and tarot for their future or whats meant for them but never to God or the bible they want what's fun but sadly these are demonic things believe it or not :( me and my sister use to be so caught up in astrology and stuff like that but Not anymore so no you're not that way bc of zodiac signs it's your sins idc how accurate it seems don't be deceived ❤idk if you are gonna read this but i will tell you and everyone God is real 100% believe it or not and what good is it too gain the whole world and lose your own soul? The bible Aka Gods word never said Good people go to heaven and bad people go too hell Far from true!

Hell was made for the devil and his angels you should watch billy garham give your life to Jesus we are in the last days and Jesus loves you and he shedded blood on that cross without the shedding of blood sin cannot be forgiven and sin is very serious in the eyes of god I was depressed to and sinned for fun I had suicidal thoughts I remember in my room one night I told god that of things don't change I'm gonna kms I was sorry weak and at sometimes so weak I felt like I was dying then I remember a really good day came a day I loved so much and wanted more of so on that same day I remember saying god, I'm just gonna trust you and when you try to do something right the devil attacks you so the next day was horrible I don't wanna say how it was it was just horrible! I stayed strong BC after so long of trying to go to anything else but god they all failed me so I held on to god as the reason let me skip to now and say I started off faithless now I'm so faithful in god I started off worried for my future now I know its something gods gonna handle I'm not feeling depressed anymore the whole year of 2022 was hard but with god I made it threw! Now I learned so much and love my relationship with god I know he loves and cares for me AND HE LOVES AND CARES FOR YOU TOO!

    LYRICS
    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 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

    This song doesn't have to just be about relationships. It can be about friends as well. I had a friend who was my anchor for ages, one of my only reasons for living, but now she hates my guts, and doesn't want to talk to me, because she's tired of dealing my depression and what it entails. It hurts but she'll go on with her life, and I'll go on with mine, and I'll just have to deal with it.

    I’m here because I fell in love with a singer and he told me how much he loved me and would take care of me, even when I told him I was poor, he literally played with my heart, then when I could pay the fee for his gifts that was through FEDEX express, which isn’t allowed in Iraq, he cut me off, didn’t care about my feelings or even saying goodbye. He said he was humble, but wasn’t. Said that he was a simple man, but wasn’t as well.

    When this song became a hit . I did not pay attention to the lyrics and thought "ugh not that again" but now I love this song. It puts to think how in many cases this happens. Great catchy song.

    Now that I read the lyrics, everything makes more sense now!! Not only that, but it makes me sad that happened to "him" (in the song). Such imagery!! The point of view of each lovers that tells a different reason, story. It such an amazing song!!! I love it more now!!! 😥😍🥰

    I loved him endlessly after 9+years. He will always hold a special place in my heart. I should have left in 2018 when he 1st cheated but it took 3x for me to finally walk away from W. Too many lies and mistrust. I will find someone.
