The Freshmen Lyrics


Jay Brannan The Freshmen


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
Stopped a babies breath and a shoeful 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 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, sobbing with his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept he said

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 never compromise
For the life of me
I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

We tried to wash our hands of all of this
We never talk of our lack in 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

We were merely freshmen
