The Fray - How To Save A Life

Step one
You say we need to talk
He walks
You say sit down its just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stair politely right on through
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

*Chorus*
Where did I go wrong
I lost a friend
Somewhere along into 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
Cuz after all, you do know best
Try to step past his defense,
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
Things you told him all along
And pray to God he hears you (chorus)

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 (chorus)
