Peredhel in Black
An Angel That I Used To Know


You know how sometimes you get really weird ideas?

Well, this was one of them.

I give you a Phantom Parody.

(to the tune of “Somebody That I Used To Know” by Gotye feat. Kimbra)



Erik:

Now and then I think of when we were together

And with your touch I was so happy I could die

I told myself that you were right for me

Yet you were lonely in my company

I wanted love and it’s a pain I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain sort of darkness

Or form a plot to reach an end, always an end

Yet when you said that we could not make sense

Well I had hoped that we could still be friends

But I’ll admit that you were glad that it was over.

But you didn’t have to cut me off

Make out like we never happened and that I was nothing

And I don’t even need your love

But you treat me like a phantom and that feels so rough

No, you didn’t have to stoop so low

Have your lover come and rescue you and drag me under

I guess I’ll live without you though

Now you’re just an angel that I used to know

Christine:

Now and then I think of all the times you left me hanging

Making me believe that it was always something that I’d sung

No longer can I live that way

Breathing out with every line you sang

I hoped that you would let me go

That I wouldn’t find you pining for an angel that you used to know…

Erik:

But you didn’t have to cut me off

Make out like we never happened and that I was nothing

And I don’t even need your love

But you treat me like a phantom and that feels so rough

No, you didn’t have to stoop so low

Have your lover come and rescue you and drag me under

I guess I’ll live without you though

Now you’re just an angel that I used to know
