How To Save A Life Lyrics - Fray

Step one you say we need to talk 

He walks you say sit down it's just a talk 

He smiles politely back at you 

You stare 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 

And 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 past his defense 

Without granting innocence 

Lay down a list of what is wrong 

The things you've told him all along 

And pray to God he hears you 

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 

How to save a life 

How to save a life 

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 

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 

How to save a life 

How to save a life
