Somebody That I Used to Know
Mikill Pane
[Verse 1: Mikill Pane]
I tried to get you to communicate instead of walking out on everything
I said let's have it out, let's go wild
Two months ago we were talking bout a wedding now we're walking past each other in a Tesco aisle
I'm as bitter as the Boddingtons I drown my sorrows in
I heard about that Gotye sound and borrowed it
Since you went and left all my sympathetic friends said
"Don't worry, she's gonna come around tomorrow, kid"
They mean well but I don't believe that babe
Tomorrow never comes, I never see that day
You're the exit sign I hump for above the front door
Because you really didn't have to leave that way
But that wasn't enough
You grabbed all of your stuff
I just sat alone in the flat, calling your bluff
Then I tried to call you after a couple of days
Your position was the same but your number was changed

[Hook: Gotye]
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make it 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

[Verse 2: Mikill Pane]

I used to have a place in your heart now you probably don't even see my face in your head
I may as well go to sleep in sky, because I see too much space in the bed
I wanna break off the dial every tune
Because every song on the radio reminds me of you
But I can't make a record selection since your friend came to collect your collection
If I ever told I could let you go please believe I only said it in the heat of the moment
Amy Winehouse said loves a losing game she was right because I don't even see my opponent
What hurts most is that you vanished by choice, now I feel lower than Barry White's voice
Now I'm in the lobby of a studio writing a song about somebody that I used to know

[Hook: Gotye]

[Verse 3: Kimbra]
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 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

[Hook: Gotye]
