Discover the story of the song > College Kids – Relient K

The song is about a college student who questions whether going to college was the right thing to do, as he is poor and struggling and his girlfriend is seeing other people. He doesn't like the party scene and is finding college too hard, and thinks maybe he should just do arts and crafts instead. He eventually decides to follow his own path and live his life the way he wants, even if it's not what his parents or society expect of him.
