Just found a very nice song by The Fray called How to save a life. I find the lyrics very meaningful. It's not a christian song but nevertheless I'll share it with you guys. Been a long time since the last update.
The lyrics:
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
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
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
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 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 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 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
Maybe we can jam this song the next time. I need to know when you guys are free so we can jam or something? Here's the update about the meeting last month:
1) Preacher Ng suggested a few things about the drum issue and the main committee basically can't be bothered about the issue anymore and push everything over to the 12:30pm committee on May. So we can't play till after the May's meeting.
2) This doesn't mean we don't have any projects left. We still have the song recording project yet to discuss and come to a conclusion.
3) We still haven't voted/choose a vocal singer. Vocal lessons are still available for all information.
Anyway, I'll be hosting another jamming session soon so those interested please reply my upcoming sms so I'll see if the response is good. Might help you guys relax from those taxing homework and exams you know. ;)
