Reviews for What Sarah Said Lyrics

I love DCFC but their songs have only recently connected with me. Someday you will be loved and what Sarah said mean the most to me right now. My step dad left my family and its been hard, and a new love has entered my life. Michael is everything I could wish for and so much more but he's dying. Im watching the love of my life die slowly and the only thing keeping me strong is knowing that he's even more afraid than I am.
I love you, my angel. <3

This is the second time i have written on this page, my other comment was titled "earth" a few comments down.
I dont know why im writing on this again. but im listening to the song right now. <3

Dont get into fights with your family. they are the only people that will stick by your side for the whole ride, friends will come and go, but family will ALWAYS be there. believe me.
blood is thicker than water.
dont have any regrets, live life, love life. be yourself, not what someone wants you to be. I hope someone reads this comment and i hope it means something to them. <3

My best friend Sarah just finished telling me how she has suicidal thoughts, and I came across this song.

That line is so relevant; But I’m thinking of what Sarah said
That love is watching someone die

I started listening to this song shortly after my Nani died. I didn't know her very well, we lived halfway across the country my entire life and I only knew her as a name on the usual holiday and birthday cards. My boyfriend shared this song with me because I was going through a really hard time coming to term with not knowing my family, who have always been just barely out of reach. Listening to this song, I realized I should stop worrying about not knowing my family and start learning about them, grow to love them. I also realized that I'd found somebody I could share my life with, somebody who would watch me die while I watch him die. I've done my best to pass this song on, sharing it with friends and singing an A Capella version I adapted to my own voice, because it touched my heart. It saved me in a way. I no longer contemplate killing myself, because the thing I enjoy most is right in front of me: love.
Keep spreading the message and touching hearts.

to whoever is reading this:

we will never meet
i don't know you and never will, but i believe in you
don't let go
don't you ever give up
you are important
there is always a way

someone is out there who understands, don't crawl into a hole because it's hard to face the light. embrace it... and you will forever be grateful for the time you had

I was with a girl called sarah , this reminded me of when i kept checking my phone when i went to hospital after we broke up, i kept waiting for her to come and visit me but she never did , and that left a bitter taste in my mouth . I loved this sarah , but i knew it would end . and i relate to her being the truth id loose then never known at all .

songs like these come around few and far between, divinity manifesting itself in flesh to lead others back from the brink. This song has infinite meanings to all who hear it yet the one universal truth is that its beauty is divine. DCFC is a very real and truthful mouth peice for those of us seeking solace and guidance in times or pain and of joy. Thank you to all who have posted their inspirations on this page. Namaste

i wrote on this page.
it's been just over a year since the day of my sister's funeral that i talked about on the page.
before my sister was sick, i was in a deep depression and had been for years. i tried to kill myself. when we found out she was dying, something changed in me.
i had welcome the thought of sleeping forever, but she was a cold bucket of water that made me realize i already was asleep. i woke up. i pray to whatever god there may be that something inside you has awakened as well.
live your life, and as corny as it sounds, find someone to love; it makes everything worth it.

i just read all the comments on this page.
the song is ending as i write this.
this made me cry. i'm pushing farther away from everything and this is exactly what i needed. i know almost noone will read this but.
i love you.

This is a beautiful and amazing song.
its almost heartbreaking, but at the same time, for some odd reason, very comforting
reading all the above comments really shows how much people this song affects.
amazing...
It makes me feel happy but sad listening to this song.
It makes me remind myself that there is one very secial person out there who would die for me, and another who i love very much who would do anything for me.

Two years ago (God, has it really been two years?), one of my best friends died. He was driving home at night from a school function and his truck ran off the road and into a tree. He was on life support for a day before they took him off. I never said goodbye.

this is an exceptional song. without seeing the video clip it sounds like he's talking about a lover who is dying/died in the emergency room and he's describing his feelings/surroundings. the film clips changes your entire view. the girl in the clip is and artist who has just attempted suicide and she's in an apartment with her boyfriend or husband. she writes throughout in french i believe:
bathroom mirror - he loves me
hand - a little
wall - a lot
carved on her arm - passionately
carved on leg - with madness
goes back to bathroom mirror - not at all.
so in the end it says - he loves me not at all. at the end she rubs it off and it starts again. i believe when she's walking around the apartment it's just her ghost. it's basically showing although he told he he loved her she could never believe it because of her own self-hate and eventually commited suicide. the clip is quite graphic showing closeups of her cutting her leg a scaple used for carving clay i think. but at the same time beautiful. i absolutely love this song and death cab for cutie. any questions email me. hope it helped! xx

Well, if you think about it, life is a terminal illness that we all have. And every day we come a little closer to that final day. We, all of us, every day, dying. And being in love means investing more and more of urself in a another person every day, even though you know that they are mortal and its all temporary. You hang around them, even though in the purest most technical of ways... What ur doing is watching them die. Thats all you mean when you say you want to be with them forever.

beautiful song.
last month my boyfriend died of cancer and it was the hardest thing I have ever had to go through in my life. thinking about what he had to go through just breaks my heart. his mom and I were there by his side the whole time and we were there as he took his last breath and told us that he loves us.

my dad was diagnosed with cancer a year ago and this song takes me back to that exact day when i found out he would pass away. he died 8 months ago and this song brings all those emotions back...very beautifully written...
