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
I used to know
That I used to know
Somebody...

Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra)

-SayIts-F8

[Verse 1]
I got this imaginary gun in my hand,
Might pull the trigger, might be done.
Heart's saying stay, mind's screaming run,
Caught in the crossfire of what we’ve become.

Give me the key  I wanna be out of this room,
Overstayed at this heartbreak hotel, I assume.
Bullet's loaded and starting to really show,
Heart says stay, but mind's all set to go.

[Chorus]
Headaches, heartaches, what's goin' on?
I wanna be out of your prison.
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.
Every fight, every lie, every tear,
Let me get out of here (outta here).
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.

One bullet, but I ain't playing roulette,
One bullet to the heart, I'm done with it.
Freedom trigger, I just wanna be free,
Freedom trigger, for once,just let me be
(Let me be happy )Ohhh hmmm.

[Verse 2]
I've been drowning in love that's never been fair,
Now I just wanna be anywhere but here.
Your every word's like a knife, twisted around,
I've taken too much, I’ve been slowly breaking down.

Give me the key  I wanna be out of this prison,
You have done nothing but feed me your poison.
Finger on the trigger, this time I’ll be braver,
Heart's full of fear, mind won't ever waver.

[Bridge]
The weight of this love is crushing down,
But my mind's no longer bound.
I’ve been torn apart, been pulled by the tide,
I’m breaking free, nothing more to hide.

Pulling the trigger on this imaginary gun,
To let you know  I’m tired and I’m done.
Breaking out of this imaginary prison,
To let you know  I’m faded and gone.

[Chorus]
Headaches, heartaches, what's goin' on?
I wanna be out of your prison.
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.
Every fight, every lie, every tear,
Let me get out of here (outta here).
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.

One bullet, but I ain't playing roulette,
One bullet to the heart, I'm done with it.
Freedom trigger, I just wanna be free,
Freedom trigger, for once,just let me be
(See a smile on me)Ohhh hmmm.

[Outro]
Trigger's pulled and battle's done,
Free of you, the pain’s outshone.
Freedom trigger, I’m finally free,
Freedom trigger,
Trigger's pulled and battle's done,
Free of you, the pain’s outshone.
Freedom trigger, I’m finally free,
Freedom trigger,
