I full on ugly cried. As someone who has struggled with suicidal thoughts, this hits so incredibly close to home. Especially the "they will do one of two things" line. I've lost friends due to me being suicidal but I've also kept a few friends through it all. Those are the real friends. This song is so amazing and the vocals sound so passionate. I love it so much 🖤💜
If you lost friends to you being suicidal they weren't really friends. A true friend wouldn't turn on you. They would support you no matter what. Or so I'm told. I too am suicidal and have attempted more times then I remember but I dont open up to anyone. You're strong for opening up to loved ones.
@@j.9334 I guess. I know it is hard to talk to someone about how you're feeling and whatnot. It took me a good while to actually mention to my parents that something didn't feel right. Hell, I didn't even admit to anything until after my father noticed symptoms. If you ever need someone to talk to who doesn't know you personally and won't judge, I'm here and can give you my snap or insta.
@@ryebread69 atleast you admitted it. I'm sorry you had to go through that. And it would actually be nice to talk to someone who does know what I feel like. The hotlines just wanna distract me or send me to therapy.
I'm currently going through one of my depression episodes, worse than any I've had in over a year and I began isolating. In the moment of noticing how, when I disappear, no one reaches out to me and no one even contacts me to talk... My friends just seem to forget I existed. It hurts to know if I had done what my suicidal tendencies were telling me to do, days later, no one would even know I'm gone. The original song always hit me hard and I was looking for covers but found this in my search. I might take this version to my vocal coach so we can sing it instead of the original. Might be a good release for me.
@@tengochang8777 I have, yes. :) We were practicing it right before covid. Sorry for the slow response. It never alerted me. X.X I ended up making changes to this version, taking some from the original and hers to build something sort of the same, but more to my taste. It's something my vocal coach likes me doing. She enjoys when we alter songs because it makes them more 'personable'. Of course, she was asking me to put in more emotion, but then would warn me not to go too far. Not only because of my depression, but days before I finally gave the piece to her, I learned a guy from the Karaoke bar I would go to who would always tell me how good I was (I'm not a confident singer and don't feel like I'm that good) committed suicide.
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 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 Just posting for myself so I can get the whole affect of the story
Gonna be honest, I don't cry over a lot of songs, but this one had me breaking down in the very first verse. I've been on both sides of this exchange. I've been the one trying to save someone, and I've needed saving. Sometimes this really is how it feels. You know they're trying to help, you KNOW they mean well... but at the same time, it never feels like they understand, and it never feels like you can really tell them how you're feeling, because you don't think they'll be able to take it. This needs hella more views. One of the best takes I've seen on this song.
It's 2021 and I'm here still listening to this rewrite song. It's a sad song yet warm. Hope everyone is okay and if not, it's okay to not be okay all the time. Stay strong!
Rewrite Lyrics: Step 1, you say you need to talk I know what's coming but I choose to play along I smile politely right at you And I hope that you just can't see through I'm gonna say what you want to hear, Say I'm alright as I hide my tears To see the fear leave from your face And you'll begin to wonder why you came Where did life go wrong? I feel the end Seeping along in the bitterness I'm wide awake The darkness is my light I don't know how to save this life... I let you think that you know best, 'Cause after all you do know best Slowly let down my defence, Just to feed you confidence Lay down a list of what is wrong You're careful not to come on strong If only God can hear you Please, God, I really need You Where did life go wrong? I feel the end Seeping along in the bitterness I'm wide awake The darkness is my light I don't know how to save this life... Now, I can start to hear your voice I know I'm left with one of little choice Drive until I lose the road Or break with the ones I followed 'Cause they'll do one of two things They'll stick around through everything Or they'll say it's too much to take And I'll begin to wonder why I came Where did life go wrong? I feel the end Seeping along in the bitterness I'm wide awake The darkness is my light I don't know how to save this life... Where did life go wrong? I feel the end Seeping along in the bitterness I'm wide awake The darkness is my light I don't know how to save this life... How to save this life?
Why have I only just come across this, this is absolutely amazing and one gorgeous voice/woman ❤ this touch me I've had anxiety and panic attacks depression for years and still struggle to see past it xxxx
Damn....this rewrite was so powerful. It had me crying so hard. I struggle with anxiety and depression annually during the fall/winter but over the last 4 months, I have been in this huge funk that has had me contemplating alot. I have had a lot of people leave my life over the last year or so and it's been harder to go on every day. Yet every day I still somehow find the strength to get out of bed and make it through. Sometimes even by faking it, I make it.
Very good rewrite! My problem with the original is that despite its concept being how hard it is to actually save someone with your words and feeling bitter/defeated over it, the lyrics and music are so badly written and conceptualized that it comes across like actual advice, which is bad cause it offers terrible advice on how to help someone. Positioning yours as someone on the receiving end of the ultimatums, threats, and lack of empathy is great. Great job!
I struggle daily with thoughts of suicide i have depression anxiety and bipolar this song has helped me more times than i can remember you have a beautiful soulful voice
I can personally relate to the bipolar depression, and the anxiety and depression. What alot of people don't understand is having general depression and bipolar depression, its an always being depressed but depressive episodes being twice as bad as normal
you are incredible and i think its better than original fray are good but the song you have made is awesome and relate to it more than you will ever know x
I sung the original of this to someone after they took an overdose *I'm a shit singer so dont know what was worse for them tbh* and listening to this hits different because that person still hates me for saving them some days others they are thankful honestly this is a beautiful song and I love the rewrite 💞
After loosing my kids and everything lost my self want in to hopital for five months this song and some other got me through everyone goes through a challenge in life stay strong
This is what's wrong with society we all in general just take people's word for how they are feeling, those who suffer with anxiety /Depression will rarely open up and tell you how they really feel. Whether it's because they are afraid of judgement, just don't want to bother you or they're scared of pushing those close to them away. So please next time someone tells you they are OK give them a hug anyway let them know you care and aren't going anywhere if you close enough you will see the pain hidden in their eyes that should be enough to tell you somethings wrong #Stronger together
I love this song, and I love this take on this song, I struggle with anixety and depression and this fits how I feel at times
Tanis Hardy hang in there mate 👍🏻your doing great

I added you .
''Where did life go wrong i feel the end'' ooh that hit hard
"I don't know how to save this life"
The worst thing is when you just don't know
I’ve listened to this on repeat for the third time,
There is something so pure about her lyrics and how she portrays lyrics in all her videos!
Amazing

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
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
Just posting for myself so I can get the whole affect of the story
Posted it for yourself, but also very good for me to learn the songs lyrics. Thank you
I have listened to several versions of this song. Your one is by far the best.
This song always gets me, but love your take on it

I´m so in love with this version... I think I like this one best
I almosted cried listening to this song, honestly... wow I have no words you're amazing ❤
I did!
The Frey sing it ! But she gives them a run fir the title for me!
Rewrite Lyrics:
Step 1, you say you need to talk
I know what's coming but I choose to play along
I smile politely right at you
And I hope that you just can't see through
I'm gonna say what you want to hear,
Say I'm alright as I hide my tears
To see the fear leave from your face
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
Where did life go wrong?
I feel the end
Seeping along in the bitterness
I'm wide awake
The darkness is my light
I don't know how to save this life...
I let you think that you know best,
'Cause after all you do know best
Slowly let down my defence,
Just to feed you confidence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
You're careful not to come on strong
If only God can hear you
Please, God, I really need You
Where did life go wrong?
I feel the end
Seeping along in the bitterness
I'm wide awake
The darkness is my light
I don't know how to save this life...
Now, I can start to hear your voice
I know I'm left with one of little choice
Drive until I lose the road
Or break with the ones I followed
'Cause they'll do one of two things
They'll stick around through everything
Or they'll say it's too much to take
And I'll begin to wonder why I came
Where did life go wrong?
I feel the end
Seeping along in the bitterness
I'm wide awake
The darkness is my light
I don't know how to save this life...
Where did life go wrong?
I feel the end
Seeping along in the bitterness
I'm wide awake
The darkness is my light
I don't know how to save this life...
How to save this life?
This song is my new favorite. Really hits home
Why have I only just come across this, this is absolutely amazing and one gorgeous voice/woman ❤ this touch me I've had anxiety and panic attacks depression for years and still struggle to see past it xxxx
Can we use your rewrites in videos? Obviously would give you the credit
Reminiscing reflecting pondering
Formulating a happy independent miracle
A solution a cure happy future happy ending happy ever after
The world was dark and gloomy and grew till I gave it color like a jigsaw puzzle a Rubik's cube a collection
This deserves so much more recognition
Your voice is gorgeous, I wish u would do more Isaac slade (the fray) covers.

This is so beautiful 💗💗
Very good rewrite!
My problem with the original is that despite its concept being how hard it is to actually save someone with your words and feeling bitter/defeated over it, the lyrics and music are so badly written and conceptualized that it comes across like actual advice, which is bad cause it offers terrible advice on how to help someone.
Positioning yours as someone on the receiving end of the ultimatums, threats, and lack of empathy is great. Great job!
I love this version❤️
