Bij het thema mens en leven komt het omgaan met verlies. Hoe ga je er mee om? Dat is een vraag die moeilijk te beantwoorden is. Sommige mensen hebben wat tijd alleen nodig terwijl anderen net weer bij een grote groep mensen willen zijn. Sommigen zijn heel open over hun gevoelens en anderen dan weer niet. Het is iets heel persoonlijks.
Als een dierbaar persoon sterft gaan er vele vragen door je hoofd Waarom nou jij? Hoe kan dit?
En volgens mij is er een vraag die wel bij iedereen eens naar boven komt bij een verlies: Hoe red je een leven? Iedereen denkt er wel aan. Had ik die persoon kunnen redden? Had ik er iets aan kunnen veranderen?
Het lied hieronder gaat ook over een persoon met deze vragen.
Songtekst:
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
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
