Lyrics:
(Verse) When I was young I knew everything
And 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

(Pre-chorus) 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

(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

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

(Pre-chorus)
(Chorus)

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

(Pre-chorus)
(Chorus twice)
