Live a Life Less Ordinary Live A Life Extradorinday with Me! :D

Hey there everyone! :D

I just wanted to post something because it's been awhile ^___^ Anyway I've been thinking a lot about something...(wow) >_<

Actually about the song "How to Save a Life" by the Fray...it's a beautiful song...

Think about it...for me I think of someone important to me...someone I wish I could see at least one more time. I'm not trying to sound self pitying or anything because I know there are others in much more pain than I and who have lost more...but I can't help the sad feeling I get in my heart...that longing to see that face...

"Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend, somewhere along in the bitterness and if I'd stayed up with you all night then I'd know how to save a life..."

I often wonder...if I really could have done something...anything to stop her...


How To Save A Life

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
You begin to wonder why you came

CHORUS:
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
And pray to God he hears you

CHORUS:
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

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:
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

CHORUS:
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

CHORUS:
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

CHORUS:
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

Hey Tobi, its Taylor (Saix/Konan) I completely love this song. I cried the first time i listened to it, and i still do. Its an amazing song, and it touches me and you very much.
Also, a buy from my school was in that music video with all the kids. When they show all the kids together, he is the guy in the front at the very end on the right, and they show his eye and stuff.
Another song that really touches me is "Fix you" by Coldplay. You should listen to it if you havent already, and Skillet is amazing too :)
I miss you! See ya at school Tobi-kins!
