The Fray - How to save a life

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. ;)
