Lyrics of The Freshmen by The Verve Pipe
verse
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
pre-chorus
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
chorus
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
verse
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
pre-chorus
"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"
chorus
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
hook
Hey-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey-yeah
Hey-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
verse
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
pre-chorus
"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"
chorus
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
chorus
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
outro
We were merely freshmen
We were only freshmen
Writer(s): Douglas Corella, Brian Vander Ark, Jeffrey Dunning, Donald Brown
