The Fray - How To Save A Life

Step on
You say "we need to talk"
He walks
You say "Sit down it's just talk"
He smiles politely back at you
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip pas his defense
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
Pray to God he hears you
And I pray to God he hears you

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
"Drive until you lose the road or break with the ones you've followed"
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
