| Ed Sheeran – I See Fire Lyrics
| 12 years ago

The song was written for/about the hobbit film, i think, cuz it's the closing credits of the desolation of smaug, and of course, Durin being one of the seven dwarven kings. I think it describes the destruction of the town under Smaug's mountain, hence all the references to fire, desolation and blood, etc. |

| The Fray – How To Save A Life Lyrics
| 12 years ago

To me and possibly to the band, it's about having to be there for a friend who really needs help in self control/suicide. My friend has had some really bad experiences and every time she feels unstable, or like she's going to cut herself she calls we and we stay up all night talking. It's scary for me because I feel as though it's my responsibility to save her life every time she calls and she'll do something really stupid if I don't pick up the phone. The first verse reminds me of when she first told me what was going on in her life and my complete inability to react to it from shock. She's playing havoc with my sleeping patterns but i really can't afford to lose her, so I still have to help her. |

Guy, the lead singer, had a friend who, at the end of every single phone call would say 'love you mate'. this friend died, so elbow wrote a song as a tribute. Beautiful. |

about wanting to be able to be with someone but not being able to because they'll say no, or you're too scared (after my blood has turned into alcohol) shows he has to be drunk to talk to her. |

It's about someone with mental problems in their past who wants the person they love to know, but can't bear to tell them because they want to protect them. The only way they feel they can escape is for the other person to realise and sort it out for themselves. |

It's about letting someone go, and not realising what you had when before you let them go. |
