A cover of a song by ‘The Verve Pipe’.

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 won’t be held responsible
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 can not remember
What made us think that we were wise and never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

Her best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
His girl took a weeks 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 says

I won’t be held responsible
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…
