You make me feel like a fool waiting for you. You make me feel like a fool waiting for you. I thought we could eat bread. I thought we could talk. On darker days

Yes, anything! 'made a fool of me' is probably the best. Surprised Dylan asked for this. Is there a catch somewhere?

tried to convince everyone that I am a lier/incompetent/ινσανε

"με έβγαλε τρελο" means that my arguements and evidence were far from the truth, despite -most of the times- the evidence/arguements being very convinving and compelling, or just that it doesn't make sense.
