The Freshmen

When I was young, I knew everything
 And she, a punk who rarely ever took advice
 Now I'm guilt-stricken, sobbin', with my head on the floor
 Stoppin' baby's breath and a shoe full of rice, now
 Can't be held responsible
 'Cause she was touchin' her face
 I won't be held responsible
 She fell in love in the first place
 For the life of me, I cannot remember
 What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
 For the life of me, I cannot believe
 We'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen

 My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
 His girl took a week's worth of Valium and slept
 And now he's guilt-stricken, sobbin', with his head on the floor
 Thinks about her now and how he never really wept, he says
 "Can't be held responsible
 'Cause she was touchin' her face
 I won't be held responsible
 She fell in love in the first place"
 For the life of me, I cannot remember
 What made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise
 For the life of me, I cannot believe
 We'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen
 Hey-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 Hey-yeah
 Hey-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 We tried to wash our hands of all of this
 We never talk of our lacking relationships
 And how we're guilt-stricken, sobbin', with our heads on the floor
 We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say
 "Can't be held responsible
 'Cause she was touchin' her face
 And I won't be held responsible
 She fell in love in the first place"
 For the life of me, I cannot remember
 What made us think that we were wise, and we'd never compromise
 For the life of me, I cannot believe
 We'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen
 For the life of me, I cannot remember
 What made us think that we were wise, and we'd never compromise
 For the life of me, I cannot believe
 We'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen
 We were merely freshmen
 We were only freshmen
