Somebody That I Used To Know

Ogni singola frase di questa canzone è uno spicchio della mia vita, uno stream of consciousness infinito e mi ha fatto risentire i milioni di sassolini che sono rimasti nelle mie scarpe e che non sono riuscita (e non so se riuscirò mai) a togliermi.


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  (ahhhh, che brutta sensazione...)
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember (eccome se me lo ricordo!)

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness (e ti abitui... tristemente ti abitui)
Like resignation to the end (e mi avevi anche portato a pensare che fosse meglio morire)
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 (la quiete prima della tempesta)

But you didn't have to cut me off Make out like it never happened (il mio stare male sembrava non tangerti)
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 ("rough" è un eufemismo)
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 (sei riuscito anche a farmi credere di essere sbagliata quando il problema eri TU)
And I don't wanna live that way 

Reading into every word you say (e io codificavo ogni singola cosa, sperando di intervenire)
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...



E' passato qualche anno ma non è passata la rabbia. Il giorno che riuscirò a perdonarti, sarò finalmente serena.

Una perla

Questa è una delle cose più belle che abbia sentito in vita mia.
