What Sarah Said Lyrics
Artist(Band):Death Cab For Cutie
Review The Song (66)Print the Lyrics
And it came to me then that every plan
Is a tiny prayer to father time
As I stared at my shoes in the ICU
That reeked of piss and 409
And I rationed my breaths as I said to myself
That I’ve already taken too much today
As each descending peak on the LCD
Took you a little farther away from me
Away from me

Amongst the vending machines and year-old magazines
In a place where we only say goodbye
It stung like a violent wind that our memories depend
On a faulty camera in our minds
And I knew that you were a truth I would rather lose
Than to have never lain beside at all
And I looked around at all the eyes on the ground
As the TV entertained itself

‘Cause there’s no comfort in the waiting room
Just nervous pacers bracing for bad news
And then the nurse comes ‘round and everyone lift their heads
But I’m thinking of what Sarah said
That love is watching someone die

So who’s gonna watch you die? So whos gonna watch you die

Review about What Sarah Said

Happy 50th Birthday Baby | Reviewer: Jeff Allen | 6/17/09

Happy 50th birthday Sarah. Our girls are so beautiful and I'm forever grateful for you giving them to me. I'm not sure I would have made it these past 9 years without them. They're 16 and 12 now and I know you would be so proud.

We miss you terribly, but we take comfort in knowing you'll be there when we die too.

We love you.





meaning | Reviewer: Alexxx | 6/8/09

The lead singer of DCFC's best friend's wife, Sarah, was the inspiration for this song. She was walking in the park one day with her husband, when she suddenly broke down into tears. Her words were, "One of us is going to have to watch the other die."

In the music portion after "So who's gonna watch you die", you can hear the heartbeat very softly in the background slowly start to fade. And at the end, you can hear a doorbell.

This song is another masterpiece by Death Cab for Cutie.



meaning | Reviewer: Katy | 4/8/09

This song can pretty much be summed up in its last line. If you have ever loved someone who has died of a long, tragic death, like cancer, then you know "love is watching someone die".

You have to truly love someone to really be there for them, and stay by their side as they slowly deteriorate. It's no easy thing. That is how you can know who really loves you in your life, if they stick around to comfort you as you die.



favorite song of all time | Reviewer: LawlPatrol | 3/8/09

well in this story his loved one has died. and he misses her to death. hes angry and torn up inside because he realizes that he always took her for granted. when he looks back in time through memories he sees that he has next to none fond memories. the moral of the story is that you should love and charish the people closest to like relics because when they pass away you can have fond memories of them. this is what i depict of the song anyways.



Meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/9/09

I was just actually wondering if anyone actually knows the meaning behind the song, I understand it is set in a hospital waiting room. But who is Sarah supposed to be and is she the one dying? What does "Love is watching someone die" supposed to mean? Just curious as to the meaning.



shocked and apalled | Reviewer: vk | 1/6/09

Syd, i am contridicting what 'katie' said. this song obviously means very much to you, and i certainly agree that it is very moving, there are alot of storys up of how it hits close to hom. alot of music now adays has no depth, but DCFC always stirs e. Katie should be ashamed of herself, calling your surgery a sob story. if her mother is passing aswell, i would have thought she could be more sympathetic.



amazed | Reviewer: kllk | 12/21/08

this song is truly amazing, it takes quite alot to move me the way this song has. The meaning behind this song is just amazing, and im glad that the world still has artists capable of creating such beautiful music

Love of my Life | Reviewer: Jeff | 11/21/08

this song makes me think of the girl i was about to ask to marry me and her name was sarah. when i first found this song i was curious as what it was about. not 5 minutes after the song was i got a call saying sarah was killed by a drunk driver and fell apart. hearing this makes me think about her and the life we could have had.

till i see you again sarah my angel



wow... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/17/08

I have to say I wasn't expecting this song. I saw through a friend's away message the he was listening to "What Sarah Said". Out of curiosity I listened to the song online and burst into tears. I lost my older sister Sarah a little over a year ago to accidental head trauma. She was in a medically induced coma for a week and then passed away; I was right beside her when she passed. Needless to say this song hits home eerily...I can't even believe it. I'm at a loss for words, it's just unbelievable...
I'll miss you until I see you again sarah <3
