The Verve Pipe - the freshmen lyrics

rate me

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

Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice, no...

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

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

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 sobbin' 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

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 merely freshmen

We were only freshmen
