[Verse 1: Jack Antonoff]
I've been talking to strangers
Acting like I'm a stranger
Look like I've been up all night
And you know what? I hate it

I put my things into boxes
Carry all of my old lies
Rubber band in my past time
And you know what? I hate it

[Pre-Chorus: Jack Antonoff]
Oo-oo-ooh
Long way down
You're such a heart attack
But it feels like oo-oo-ooh
Pressure points
They pressure you right back
Come on, think about it

[Chorus: Jack Antonoff & Carly Rae Jepsen]
Sometimes I hate that you know me so well (so well)
Sometimes I, I hate that you know me so well
Some days I, I wish that I wasn't myself
No luck!
And I hate that you know me so well

[Verse 2: Jack Antonoff]
Washed the fear from my hands off
Caught mistakes in the sidewalk
Act like I've been up all night
And you know what? I hate it

So I keep talking about eighteen
'Cause I can't let go of the same dream
Rubber band in my past time
And you know what? I hate it!

[Pre-Chorus: Jack Antonoff]
Oo-oo-ooh
Long way down
You're such a heart attack
But it feels like oo-oo-ooh
Pressure points
They pressure you right back
Come on, think about it

[Chorus: Jack Antonoff & Carly Rae Jepsen]
Sometimes I hate that you know me so well (so well)
Sometimes I, I hate that you know me so well (and I hate ya)
Some days I, I wish that I wasn't myself (No)
No luck! (No)
And I hate that you know me so well
Sometimes (Sometimes) I hate that you know me so well (I hate that you know me)
Sometimes (Sometimes) I hate that you know me so well
Some days I, I wish that I wasn't myself (myself)
No luck! (No!)
And I hate that you know me so well

[Bridge: Carly Rae Jepsen]
And I hate that you know me so well (yeah)
And I hate that you know me so well

[Chorus: Jack Antonoff & Carly Rae Jepsen]
Sometimes I hate that you know me so well (so well)
Sometimes I, I hate that you know me so well (and I hate ya)
Some days I, I wish that I wasn't myself (No)
No luck! (No)
And I hate that you know me so well
Sometimes (Sometimes) I hate that you know me so well (I hate that you know me)
Sometimes (Sometimes) I hate that you know me so well
Some days I, I wish that I wasn't myself (myself)
No luck!
And I hate that you know me so well

The so-called “80s-nostalgia” indie pop artist Bleachers infuses modern electronica with stylistic elements of the 80s. Headed by Jack Antonoff of Steel Train and Fun. fame, the band’s music is deeply personal, emotive, and lyrically evocative.

Their debut album Strange Desire was released July 10th, 2014, and was mostly written by Antonoff throughout his tour with fun. A very visceral, realized album that addresses death, memory, self-image, and spontaneity, among other themes, Desire showed the world the great potential Bleachers has to become the next pop act to become a household name.

After an EP featuring new versions of Like A River Runs and an album of Desire’s songs covered by female artists in the same vein of the final Steel Train album, the group returned with Gone Now. It featured many of the same themes as the first album.
