Intro: (Intro Riff w/ Fill 1. the 2nd time)
 
Verse 1: (Verse Riff)
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, no
 
Pre-Chorus: (Pre-Chorus Riff)
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: (Chorus Riff)
For the life of me I can not remember
What made us think that we were wise, and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I can not believe
We'd ever die for these sins, we were merely freshmen (Fill 1.)
 
Verse 2: (Verse Riff)
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 says
 
Pre-Chorus (Pre-Chorus Riff w/ Fill 2. 4X)
 
Chorus (Chorus Riff w/ Fill 2. 4X at the end)
 
Verse 3: (Chorus Riff)
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 (Pre-Chorus Riff w/ Fill 2. 4X)
 
Chorus 2X (Chorus Riff 2X)
 
Outro (Intro Riff 2X w/ Fill 1., then Outro Riff)
