Freshman (Matchbox 20)

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
Stop /// a baby's breath /// and a shoe /// full of rice

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
Now /// he's guilt /// stricken sobbing /// 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

Hey Yeah...Yeeeah... /// Hey Yeeeah... /// Hey Yeah...Yeeeah...

We've tried /// to wash our hands of all /// of this
We never talk /// of our lacking /// 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

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
