The song is about Slade as a mentor to a teen who suffered from crack-addiction. In the song he cycles through the memories of his friend and the downward cycle of the experiences that this friend encounters. The singer in the song is supposed to represent the mentor¿s coach. He provides instruction on what to do and say and what the response of the teen might be. The coach advises Slade to give the teen a choice to ¿drive until you lose the road or break with the ones you¿ve followed.¿
In the end of the song he points out that it isn¿t in our power to save people from their suffering, it is in God¿s power. The words ¿pray to God he hears you¿¿ is emphasizing this point. The message of the song is that the choices of others are out of our control. Even if we do everything we can to help someone, ultimately it is in God¿s hands. Prayer is the best thing that we can do! For more information you can go to www.answers.yahoo.com or you can look at www.planetwisdom.com. If you are on the other end of the problem and you need a friend remember you always have a friend in God!

According to lead singer and songwriter Isaac Slade, the song was composed and influenced by his experience while working as a mentor at a camp for troubled teens:
¿ One of the kids I was paired up with was a musician. Here I was, a protected suburbanite, and he was just 17 and had all these problems. And no one could write a manual on how to save him. ¿
Slade claims that the song is about all of the people that tried to reach out to the boy but were unsuccessful. As Slade says in an interview, the boy's friends and family approached him by saying, "Quit [the problem behavior] or I won't talk to you again," but all he needed was some support. The verses of the song describe an attempt by an adult to confront a troubled teen. In the chorus, the singer laments that he himself was unable to save a friend because he did not know how.
While this was the original intent of the song, the band has opened the song to interpretation. They created a website where fans were welcome to submit music videos they had made for the song. This arose from the response that Slade got from the song:[2]
¿ I got a lot of e-mails about it (...) One kid died in a car accident, and I guess it had been the last song he downloaded from his computer. They played it at his funeral, and some of his friends got Save a life tattooed on their arms. The response has been overwhelming. ¿
