When I was young I knew everything
She a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt stricken, sobbing with my head
On the floor
Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice

I can't be held responsible
'cause she was touching 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
Now he's guilt stricken sobbing
With his head
On the floor
Thinks about her now
And how he never really wept
He says

I can't be held responsible
'cause she was touching 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

We've tried to wash our hands of all of this
We never talk of our lacking relationships
And how we're guilt stricken
Sobbing with our heads
On the floor
We fell through the ice
When we tried not to slip
We'd say

I can't be held responsible
'cause she was touching 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

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
