I should have tried harder to pass this by
To make this easier, to bide my time
I should have been there to hear you cry
So you could have a shoulder to lean your head against
I should have listened to their advice
To all the ******-up things I know I shouldn't have done
To all the misery I've caused to all my friends

But now it's time, it's time for me to go
And I'm a fool without a single shred of doubt
And though it's time, the time has come to go
I'm still a fool without a single shred of doubt

And I should have been there to hear you cry
So you could have a shoulder to lean your head against
Instead I'm known to be the one to make you cry
And I should have listened to their advice
To all the ******-up things I know I shouldn't have done
But instead I'm known to dismiss the words of their advice
I should have tried harder
I should have been there
I should have listened
I should have been there
I should have been there

But now it's time, it's time for me to go  
And I'm a fool without a single shred of doubt
And though it's time, the time has come to go
I'm still a fool without a single shred of doubt

I'm just a fool without a single shred of doubt
