The song “The Freshmen (album mix)” by The Verve Pipe is a reflection on the naivety of youth and how we may make mistakes without thinking about the consequences. The lyrics depict two individuals whose relationships have ended due to their decisions and lack of responsibility. The narrator reflects on how the two were merely ‘freshmen’ when the mistakes were made, implying that their lack of experience was a factor in their mistake. The song reminds us to take responsibility for our decisions, no matter how young or inexperienced we are.
