How To Save A Life is one of the most popular songs in the genre of depression. The Fray tells a story of a man where he tries to save his friend in a series of steps but in the end still loses him. In the end, the man questions and blames himself for what happened to his friend.
The song makes us veer away from thinking suicide as a solution. It might seem like it will solve all your problems, but the truth is, the problems were just passed down to the people who care deeply for you.
