Kouu sat, playing the Major C scale on the piano. Her fingers felt dead, she felt dead. Yet she was playing, she couldn't hear. It was all falling to death ears whom were listening to their own music on Kouu's own track playlist. Then the dreaded song came on.
"Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die"
Kouu froze, abruptly stopped playing.
"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
"
The first tear fell.
"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"
"Make it stop..."
"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
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"
Covering her ears through the headphones, the lyrics hit her like a spear.
Somebody that I used to know.
That could be two people.
That could be--
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Instantly she went to go delete it, but hit repeat.
And it played in an endless loop.
Over and over and over...
By the 6th time around, Kouu screamed and threw the headphones aside, but, she could still hear it, for it was still playing.
And she fainted.
