The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen lyrics
[The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen lyrics]
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
Stopped a baby's breath and a
Shoe full of rice, no
Can't be held responsible
'Cause 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
And now he's guilt-stricken, sobbin'
With his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how
He never really wept, he said
"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
Hey yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah hey yeah
Hey yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We tried to wash our hands of all of this
We'd 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 touching 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
And she, a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt-stricken, sobbin'
With my head on the floor
Stopped a baby's breath and a
Shoe full of rice, no
Can't be held responsible
'Cause 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
And now he's guilt-stricken, sobbin'
With his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how
He never really wept, he said
"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

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
