The music-video shows not only the band playing the song, but also various kids crying or screaming. They seem to be around 12-18 and look depressed or suicidal, probably because they have lost one of their loved ones. Throughout the video, numbered steps are also shown, such as: “love”, “remember” and “cry”. These are steps on how to save a life.
This music-video is actually the third one they made to this song. The first music-video shows a scene of a car crash and all of it’s victims. This video was made on 12 September in 2006. Another version of the music-video juxtaposes scenes from Grey’s Anatomy (Grey’s hvide verden), which is a TV-Show, to scenes of the first and original music-video. However, all the scenes of the car crash and it’s victims are excluded and only scenes of The Fray, playing in a warehouse are shown.

What can you say about the lyrics and the melody?
The verses are about a person who desperately tries to save his friend from making the wrong choice, but in the chorus, the person laments that he himself was unable to save his friend because he didn’t know how.
