The Fray - How to Save a Life (Official Video)

[@Hibernathan05]

I remember when my close friend killed himself. It was the toughest time in my life. He was only 12 at the time and his dad really abused him, and some days he would go without food. I remember getting told about it and feeling devastated, but I felt bad about myself, I couldn’t stop thinking about what I could have done to help him, and it has for the last few years. I’m currently 14 and there is not a day that doesn’t go by that I don’t think about him. I’ll always remember his smile, and the time we got caught drinking beers in my garage. I loved you Tom like brother. I remember reading his note that he left out on the table before he left. All it said was “it’s not your fault. I just wasn’t meant to be here. Just don’t get beat up over me. You’re all better off without me.” Reading that cracked my heart. I wanted to tell him how much he meant to me, and how he was the brightest thing in my life. This was always his favourite song and he always listened to it in the morning on the way to school. Tom, I just want to say that wherever you are, I hope you fit in there, and get the love you truly deserved.

[@justyami]

Wow, that hit deep.

[@wyl7831]

May your friend rest peacefully

[@kampblazesnake4190]

Reading this comment, reminded me of most of friends experiencing this on their own and couldn't tell anyone about it, because they were trapped and had no where to escape the worst. I offered many suggestions to them and they had an idea of trying to hold themselves out and need to find a way out as quick as possible. I wish, I could help that person with his father also abusing them, because of not being better than other people in his class and must get the highest grades in the school. It hurts to not do anything for this person, so all I can do is keep in contact and pray that they'll be ok. It's so saddening to hear such stories on young people having to experience such a traumatic parts of their life, which having to mentally and physically hurt themselves to the core of no return. Just remember that your friend will always be in your heart and you couldn't read his thoughts, even if you wanted too, but stay strong for him, no matter.

I'm only 17 and this January I lost my dad from a drug overdose. I never knew he was doing drugs this was so sudden but he was the kindest dad ever, I guess he just had some problems, I love you dad I'll stay strong for you. EDIT: It's been three years since I posted this and the support and attention on this comment has been unreal everyone. I'm in a lot better of a place now than where I was back then, time is definitely one the best medicines. It'll always hurt to think about, but having good people in your life really is key. Keep going and don't give up, even if it seems that all hope is lost because things will eventually get better, which everyone's immense positivity help me realize. I can't thank anyone who left a kind comment enough for the sincere words, you guys have no idea what that meant to me I never expected this much attention. Thank you all so much and continue to stay strong!

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 I pray to God he hears you And 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 How to save a life ✌🏾

I also want to write here to immortalize the memory of a dear friend who was taken too soon back in 2023: Marcel Voigt, you were a blessing. Hanging out, listening to old songs together, getting my face beat in with your reality checks. You were one of the rare ones who tell you whats wrong with you in your face, I always appreciated your honesty. I don't know what went wront, but somewhere in the middle of you losing your mother to cancer and us planning to meet up with you soon, you chose to exit from this realm. I still am devastated, had I known the hurt, had I tried more to help? I don't know. All I know is we miss you bud, we all miss you. This song singlehandedly opened all those wounds again. I'm thankful, I sometimes think I got "over" you but then these situations happen every once in a while, where I become an absolute mess with tears n snot and all and I realize that you're still in my heart and not forgotten. Wherever you are, I hope you're reunited with your late mother. I hope all your pains is gone. May I never forget your memory, my friend, my brother. Rest in Piece.

Valerie Knowles I feel people can interpret songs and lyrics in their own way though, the beauty of music.

[@youknowitsbosko2146]

When I was in highschool my Mother was a huge Fray fan and got me hip instantly. We used to listen to this one in particular a lot. She had a habit of helping people, and it often took a lot out of her. I think this song sort helped her feel her way through the 'muck' so to speak. She had a lot of her own issues and I think helping others took the spotlight off of that. She knew how to save others, but couldn't seem to save herself. She drank a lot unfortuantely. As time went on, that grew into substance abuse, and eventually addiction. She still played this song a lot though, trying to remain positive. Last year in April, the 5th, she lost that fight. Things are different now. This song is different now. I still love it, but I find it very hard to listen to at times. I still have the memories, pictures, old voicemails I refuse to delete, but not her. I keep going because I feel that I have to, for her. Some days are easy, some days are really, really, hard. I have lots of questions, lots of things to say that I will never get to. In time things will settle, life will return to normal, or whatever the new normal will be. Now, this song has found me again, at a time where it seems I have to save my own life. This ones for you Mom, and for me, and for anyone else struggling, for those worried about loved ones, whoever needs it. Please keep going.

There is no cause for grief when a bloom fades but only rejoicing for the beauty it held and praise that my will is done and my plan served. I am one with all creatures and none is ever lost, only restored unto me having never left my side at all. For what is it mortal cannot be separated from its source.

I was suicidal 8 years ago due to my family financial issue. There was a time when I only eat four times a week to save money. Had to apply to economy scholarship to survive. I feel so helpless and depressed at that time. 8 years later, I'm not successful yet but I finished my univesity, promoted as a manager and I am proud that at least my brother could go to univesity without the hardship I got. I remembered I used to listen to this song to feel better. Just hold on. It'll get better. I promise.

This is empathy 101. If a depressed person is suicidal it is never because he/she wants to die. Its just that living is to hard in his/her perspective. The art in saving someone is in showing them alternatives while starting from their perspective.

Today I saw a screenshot of my brother's note written on his phone. The note was dated last Thursday. It was forwarded to my mother from my brother's wife without his knowledge and I just happened to read it also. I'm crying because his notes are showing signs of suicidal thoughts - contains an apologies, unusual requests, and telling how much he loved us. It also says he wants to go first. I am still crying while writing this because I am hurting for him. He tend to hide his struggles in life even when we ask him. I know for a fact that it was all about financial. And it hurts that I can't help him because I'm still a student. He now also refused help from our parents. He thinks that he's a burden and no used to his family. It breaks my heart. I just want him to know that he matters. I pray that he will focus on God’s hope rather than on the darkness that he's presently confronted with. If you're reading this, I hope you can help me pray for my brother to overcome his present situation. I can't lose him. I can't. Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. Sending lots of love to everyone going through hard times. 🎗️

I pray he knows and sees that he is loved and that those who love him are a support and guide to him in the way he needs. If you feel particularly concerned, connect with him. Every time, show your genuine concern as much as you can. He's been loved and watched over all his life and you can be the love that shows him God's love. I'll be pray for his heart, mind and soul and for your heart such that you find a to help him too.

[@max84294]

almost 10 years ago, when i was still a teenager in highschool, being bullied by classmates was part of a usual day so i would make myself small and silent. All of this made a depressive teenager and it was getting darker as it went. I was losing interest in going to school. One day out of no where two people came and sat next to me (where i would always go during breaks) they sat next to me and lightly tried to engage a conversation, not wanting to engage i would continue reading. so they sat next to me and continued talking together. everyday they came and sat at the same spot, next to me, and they would talk together. After some time i slowly started talking to them, and in no time i had made new friends and my days were starting to become brighter. By doing this simple action they might have actually saved a life! one of the two became a very good friend. I am glad she was there for me, and to this day she does not know how her actions affected me in a positive way.

The double meaning of "And I pray to God he hears you", wishing that your loved one can hear you from heaven, and the other meaning is you pray that God hears you for help.

[@junbin3950]

Actually it's when you cry out so much from pain, shouting, talking the same things in different ways because the other party just refuse to understand until in the end you give up. That's why he says 'I pray to God he hears you' cause in most cases, the other party is busy defending themselves instead of actually hearing the pain you're shouting. That's why in the end she just gives up. And that's also why you should only choose someone who understands your language so that you don't have to spend your whole life explaining yourself to deaf ears.

[@tenkaichi412]

Interesting catch! Never thought of that first interpretation, but I have another one: "You lay down a list of what is wrong, things you've told him all along and I pray to god he hears you" My interpretation was that the singer prays to god that the other person in the conversation hears/listens to what you have to say, in order to mend a broken relationship. Awesome song, if it has so many valid interpretations!

[@junbin3950]

@@tenkaichi412 yup. It's actually not really a wish. "the things you've told him all along". Because women tend to do the same thing again and again with renewed hopes by listing down things, trying to make the man understand etc. The problem is the man refuses to understand no matter what. So she's wasting her breath. And again this time, she's doing the same thing naively. She's listing the same things down again but it's the same thing she's been saying all along. 'I pray to God he hears you" is kind 'sarcastic' not in a negative sense. It's just that the chances of him suddenly choosing to understand this time is as slims as the previous times she complained about the same things. It's useless but hey, I pray to God he hears you because if he did then HE could have saved a life (instead of this singer who's probably just her friend who's in grief)

This song is a great one to cry to if you need it. Being 4 and then 8 when I lost my dads to the insidious disease that was AIDS in the early 90s and watching helplessly as they slipped effortlessly from their own lives and mine, reminds me of this song. Not all of the lyrics necessarily, but the feeling of hopelessness and regret, though there was nothing I could have done to save them. 33 and 29 years later, I still deal with depression because of it. I hope everyone cherishes their loved ones, and loves them hard. Tomorrow is never guaranteed for anything or anyone.

I lost my brother to suicide on December 31st, I found him with my mom. It was so shocking I saw him that morning but I didn't even say hi and stayed on my laptop. He had schizophrenia and got new meds so I thought maybe give him time to rest. i don't know. He was 26 turning 27. If I could give half of my life to bring him back I would. All my friends didn't really know how to comfort me so I got mad and now I have no friends anymore. I don't do anything and sometimes I wonder if I should even exist. I have faith things will change but what's the point? But I know how much pain and suffering and heartbreak my mom got when he died because he cared for her so much they were best friends. I try my best to go out and be ok but I can't afford a therapist or to even do things by myself so I just end up watching tv wasting my life and crying.

She didn’t understand how much this was going to hurt you. You can keep her memory alive. Many times, the suicidal hide their plan from those they love, because she didn’t want you to change her mind. You need to talk to someone, who will uplift you and help you through this. I will pray that she Rest In Peace. I pray that God comfort you and guide you through the days of your life. We can chat if you ever need. God bless you.

Directioner here. Louis Tomlinson loved The Fray and this is one of the only three songs he could play on the piano. I can imagine him immensely loving this song since he was a little kid, so much that he wanted to learn the piano version. Now I can't imagine the kind of impact it might have had on him if he heard it after losing his sister.. and now, after losing one of his closest bandmates.. Liam Payne. Especially after both of them admitting how they leaned on each other through the worst times of their lives... I can now feel how after certain experiences in life, a song that used to be "refreshing and great for singing along" becomes a song that one "physically can't listen to anymore." It's one of the greatest songs ever made.

thank you so much for that comment. Im often thinking about suicide (not crying for your help, just a fact) and its getting more serious. Somehow the youtube algorithm often gets me to this vid when its too bad. Reading your comment makes me think of my best friend. Like if she had written it one year in the future adressing me. I feel like i am Ryan and you are my best friend. Thus there are two main aspects your comment strongly reminds me of. First of all I dont want to hurt her. And I dont want her to contemplate suicide nor get any kind of depressions because i love her way more than myself and i know how bad it is. Especially not because of anything i did. I dont want to make her live with such a burden. Second thought is that she probably loves me even more than she told me. People are weird when it comes to that. They wouldnt tell you too much about their feelings but when youre gone they wish they would have. That goes for each and everyone of us and its a shame because it causes even more pain on so many different levels. Ive often thought about both of these aspects before and Im convinced that this is why i didnt do it yet. However your comment went directly into my heart and made me cry within split seconds, thinking of her writing such a comment after i killed myself. Do whatever helps you to cope with it and whatever helps you to carry on. Everybody has to find his/her own way to cope with the sadness. There are many cheesy phrases like that Ryan would have wanted you to live on. Or that Ryan will live on in your memory. But remember theyre true. Anyways thank you very much again for your letter. I feel like i will come back to it quite often when i feel too down again. Maybe you just saved some lifes!

[@melodyvalentine8779]

@@dakelong6047 I'm so sorry to hear about Mike. In my little seaside town in the North East of England there's been an epidemic of young, seemingly happy young lads who have taken their own lives. Two brothers did it within weeks of each other then their other brother tried it too but he lived. There's been too many to count and they all used the same method, hanging. It seems to be the go to method for men. I've been completely blind sided by some of them, people I've known my whole life since starting first school. I think it's because men don't feel like they can talk about mental health issues, they feel ashamed when they shouldn't. Things are getting better in that respect but it took a load of deaths for things to change. That's just suicides, the amount of overdose deaths is even more staggering, for a small town I bet there's easily been over 500 since the early 90s. My cousin was one of the first in 93, 18 young people died in one year when heroin became a big problem here. Then the numbers just keep increasing as more people die each year. I'm not exaggerating when I say its pretty much every other week I'll hear of another death of someone I know. You didn't fail Mike, well I doubt you did, you might feel like you did but if you could have saved him you would have by the sounds of it so don't beat yourself up about it ♥️

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 I 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?

This song means a lot of things for me. And probably for everyone else. For years, I've struggled with my mental health, and as a result, I've lost a lot of friends. On the other hand, it drove me to multiple suicide attempts. The man who is now my best friend saved my life. He lost his father to suicide before he was born and knew the pain. He pointed out to me how much hurt it would produce if I ended up following through with my plans. Thank you, Axden. Mum, I'm sorry I ever thought it was a good idea. Dad, I love you to bits. I'm sorry for how I treated you. Archie. I dont tell you how much I love you as often as I should. But as your older brother, know I do love you to bits. To all the people I mistreated in moments of anger, bitterness, and misery. I'm sorry. I hope one day you can forgive me. And to the Fray. Thank you for making this song. God bless you all.

[@godisgood201]

Hurtful yes, but how do you give anyone hope that things get better. Because it’s not a fact that things get better. For some people, it never gets better. At that point, the only hope you can give them is that this life isn’t all there is. At some point, the suffering does end, and then peace begins forever. That’s the symbolic message of Christ. The end of his life was suffering, but at last he could rest in Heaven. Hope can’t be given by small reassurances because often the suffering is too great. There wasn’t hope for Jesus on the cross, not in that moment, but there was hope after. So you want my advice, help people whenever practically possible, but when help isn’t possible, give them Christ.

[@jesusislord4656]

@@godisgood201 Not to rain on the parade, but people will be eternally remorseful if they think they will just go to heaven when they die. Even though eternal life is a free gift, they need to understand the gospel of salvation found in the Bible and receive that free gift of eternal life by trusting completely in Christ and His finished work on the cross for them for salvation from eternal damnation. Once they truly do, then they are born anew, and then they know exactly where they're going when they die. Not because of any works of righteousness which they have done, and not because of any sins which they didn't do... or will ever do... but because of God's mercy to us in Christ, and the redemption that we have through His innocent blood, which He shed on the cross for the remission of our sins.

Boats N Hoes. You will see your friend again but in the hereafter. Just know that no one is in paradise yet. Their souls just lay in the ground, resting until they're judged by God. This is why we say "Rest in piece" because those who have committed sins will suffer even when resting in the ground. Your friend will check up on you but won't be able to talk to you, you can only feel their presence. After all souls are judged after the end of the world, you will me reunited with all you lost loved ones and you'll all walk into Paradise with all that you desire for eternity

It's been eight long years since I lost a dear friend to suicide. Friends from high school, we met up again when he started coming into my work at least once a week. When I was going through a really hard time, where I wasn't honest with the depression I was going through, my weekly conversations kept me going just as much as seeing my children's faces. I was working up the courage to tell him how much those moments meant to me and what HE meant to me. My friends knew I was into him, but I didn't think he could ever feel that same way about me. I was so down on myself, I didn't think anyone could ever want me. I never got the chance to tell him...he was battling his own demons. After going through a bad breakup, he was a light in the dark. Even though I've moved on, been with the man of my dreams for almost seven years and married for three and a half, the "what ifs" go through my head. Mike...I miss you every, single day. I hope I was just a little of your light in the dark as you were mine.

I used to listen to this song back in middle and high school when I was struggling at my worst with mental illnesses and life. Whenever I hear this song now I get reminded of the emotions I felt six years ago and it makes me shiver knowing that I managed to live past my expectations. I feel bad for my younger self for not knowing how many people cared about me, but honestly feel disconnected with past me and it makes me kind of sad. After being hospitalized for suicide two years ago I can't feel anything emotionally like I used to. But this song lets me be brought to when I could feel emotions.

A custom build deck box that said "May your deck be as good as your friendship". - my childhood home was put on the market, because we were finding a new home. -emailed one of my friends from Germany (the place I moved from) and told her that I missed her, and she replied that she didn't even notice that I moved.
