Though I know I shouldn't say this out loud
I used to be so optimistic and proud
Of my idealistic humanist universe
But the day I met you that bubble burst
So long farewell to all of my hard won truths
I tried to keep them but there was nothing I could do
I never knew there were people like you
You may be foolish but I'm the fool
I was more than just a little bit wrong
It’s not like I thought I was some kind of Christ
Nonetheless I might have been a little more righteous
Thinking I could find a way to love anyone for a little while
Maybe just enough to get along for a little while
Told myself that I could bring out your best
Well I hope this isn’t a trial or a test
It’s no defense, but i guess it’s the truth
You may be foolish but I’m the fool
