I never realized the lyrics to Cable Car were verses.

This is How to Save a Life, not Cable Car. This sounds really cool, but doesn’t seem to totally check out. Some of the verses may be paraphrased, they have a similar theme, but not identical. Here are 2 I randomly spot checked and compared to some common translations.

Did you make this post for me? I was 15 when this song came out, right as by brother died after 2 year battle with cancer. He was 17. I hated this song because of the lyrics and its popularity at the time. I heard it everywhere and all it did was remind me of my dead brother.

They aren't. These aren't verses. Some of the verses mentioned contain similar concepts, but others aren't remotely related.

How to Save a Life….The Fray, one of my favorite bands. ❤️

His name was and is Yeshua, not Jesus.

The song that played at one of my closest friends funeral. He was struggling with addiction and I tried very very hard to save him. I haven’t cried so hard since that very day… the only friend who wanted to come meet my newborn child at the hospital, 3 months before he passed. RIP LonDon

This gave me chills. I had no idea. That song originally made me think of the Vtech killer. Then years later, I was singing to this song while shopping the day before my son was killed. I can't listen to the song without crying. Great song.

Interesting. We can't save everyone we try to, but we have to keep trying.

SLOP! Literally none of these verses are right

When i 1st learned to speak hindi , I learned Bible phrases to teach them English #JediMove

Dude, that’s awesome

Wait until your read the lyrics for Creeping Death (Metallica)

Unfortunately, it's not all the lines on the song. Just a wonderful coincidence.

They’re not. Takes 5 minutes to check the Bible.

According to grok:

I didn’t realize this honestly but this song makes me cry almost every time I hear it. One of the most beautiful, bittersweet songs ever.

@DWMcAliley1791 Same with Evanescence, Bring Me To Life

haha

That's because they're not

Worthy of muting your account for life

They're not, look them up. They relate only on the loosest of threads and relevance, are distinctly not direct quotes.

should really look into the killers then

Awesome Praise God for his Son Jesus Christ

it not.

No they are not verses, some have some words that relate but the context is different, and others are totally different, meaning and wording. Don't lie or fact check before posting bs. Deus Vult. Read your bible

🤨

- The post misidentifies the song as “Cable Car”; the lyrics shown are from The Fray’s “How to Save a Life.” - The video from The Chosen overlays song lines like “Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend” and “Had I known how to save a life” with Bible references such as Proverbs 17:9 and James 5:20. - The claimed verses are not direct quotes or accurate paraphrases of the cited scriptures but loose thematic matches for inspirational effect.

That’s dope

I’d never caught that either. Neat.

What a great idea!
