Reviews for How To Save A Life Lyrics

i remember when i gave up, all people around me didn't support me for reach my dreams...and i just crying all day alone in my bedroom..then i open my cell phone, and i was online then i share my life with my bro,i was meet him only from internet but we were really close, he was really understand me...and he sent me this song, and when i know what this song lyrics, i only cry...and he is my bro, and with this song he said he loves me...

this song is my favorite, very good song^^

As most people have written they heard the song and didn't realise the lyrics like I did. Until one day I was with some friends and I heard the song and listened to the lyrics, I broke down crying because it reminded me of when my friend tried to kill herself and I was the blame for it when actually I saved her, I just didn't save our friendshop. This song related so much to that time. I listened to it a week non-stop and somehow it helped me get the pain out. My friend is alive to this day but yesterday she went to try again, and I saved her again. I love this song, so much meaning to it. I hope my friend is okay though =(

i hadnt heard this song in forever till the other day i was listening to bob fm and it came on and i was thinking about how me and my best friend hav stopped talking .and i was just thinking about it and like it all made sense when i heard this song and i was crying so hard on this inside becuz i remember trying to talk to her and how she ignored me and i feel like i missed all the signs to us splitting and just the chorus breaks me up real bad cuz i was beig such a jerk after she talked to me like every 2 weeks "where did i go wrong i lost a friend somewhere along in nthe bitterness" and now i feel guilty becuz i feel like i contributed to all this crap thats bringing me down so much.i want things to be normal like they use to be.im waiting for her and ill wait forever if thats wat itll take.
p.s. i miss u.i made a promise i dont plan on breaking :-) ill always be there for u

To me when I hear this song it remminds of my son and his drug abuse and how it has come between us. I am brought to tears every single time I hear it. It reminds me of the talks that lasted into the night and how many times I've tried to help him and the lengths I've went to to help him or tell him the way he's going will eventually have severe consequinces. The saddest part in all this is, I was right. I always ask myself "where did I go wrong?" I love him just as much today as ever and he may be 20 now, but I will NEVER give up on him.

A beautifully written and composed track. It's emotional because it can be interpreted several ways.

I know someone who is a victim of abuse, and they contemplate suicide, I can't help them as much i want to because as a victim, he has an inferiority complex and doesn't think he deserves it.

I'm afraid that he will become so depressed and lose all of his self esteem that he will turn to suicide. i want to save his life,i want to prevent it, i try my hardest everyday, i just don't know what else to suggest or do.

this song is my song. his song. our song.

This songs about when Isaac used to work in an asylum, and there was one patient who nobody could control/ look after, and everyone turned there back on him. he desperately wanted to help him but couldn't. Great song, by a breathtaking band.

it really is true. everyone can relate to this song because everyone can intepret it in a different way. when i first heard this song, i liked it, but didnt pay much attention. then, about a yearago, my gf was in a horrible car accident. i felt devastated. i thought she was gonna die. while i waited for any news about her, this song started playing in the hospital. this time i listened, and began to cry. but thank god she survived, and i love her. I really do love this song.
I LOVE YOU MONIQUE!

Really songs about love in all languages are identical
To me is very sad when I listen to this song
And though I badly understand English I understand that one man has lost another
Thanks for emotions and for four minutes good sad!

This song is so great. Everyone interprets it differently relative to their life, and the thing is that this song fits so well with almost anybody. This reminds me of me and my ex and how things went down between us 2 weeks ago. It was all my fault and i brought it up when i shouldnt have, but to my surprise she agreed with it. I made a mistake, and i regret it now. I just want her back, but she wont ever come back to me after that night. I let her go, and i coulda stayed on the phone with her had i had the courage to tell her to stay, to tell her that i want her in my life; instead i hung up, and now my life is just not the same. i wish i had handled it differently. I wish i could have saved my own life.

my interpretation i guess is simple, i perceive it as a boy and girl breaking up, and going through the confusion and sadness young lovers do when things go wrong. i also read that this boy has been missing all the signs the girl has been trying to help him see, maybe in order to better the relationship, so she decides to give him one last chance before she leaves. this song seems to be based on her thoughts and feelings on the situation

this song is really dear to me, and to me its about a mother and son and the son is addicted to drugs, and she sits down and trys to talk to him, trying to save his life, and well sadly it didnt work.But shes saying that had she known how to support him and try to get him help she would have went to any lengths to do so

I think this song is about a guy who lost a friend who committed suicide. He didn't see the signs, and he said he woulda stayed up with them all night had he known how to save a life, or in other words, he woulda helped had he known how to save them from killing themself. He feels like its all his fault because he had the chance to stop them, but didn't know how. Now, because he didn't know how to "save a life" he lost a friend that he may never get back.

"Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed"

this could be interpretted as live your life until you lose control, or break out and start over new

I swear i really miss my ex GF, Whenever i hear a song that has a meaning..it reminds me and i cry to myself secretly!
I really do miss her.. i really do..
I swear i will do anything just to see her, talk to her one time! just one more time..
I love you popo :)
We had a deal..remember!!

i think he wrote this song when one of his friends died while in the hospital cuz its says: 'i lost a friend' and 'i would have stayed up with u all night, had i known how to save a life' por his friend wuz driving drunk or sumthin cuz it also says 'drive until u lose the road or break with the ones u followed' or sumthin like that. i dont know if this is true but im just thinking.

i finished with my gf last yr and this song tells me that i didnt lose my gf i lost my friend.

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
pray to God he hears you
And prey to god he hears you

here is were i went wrong
