Meaning of the song<\/u><\/b><\/div>\n

This ballad that appears on Still Not Getting Any supports the campaign “Don’t Drink And Drive” not only because this topic appeared in the music video, but mainly because the song has been written as a way of expressing their feelings after the loss of their two friends back in high school, who died in drunk-related car accident.<\/p>\n

The main meaning of the song is that sometimes a person can feel at fault for all the bad things that happen around him.<\/p>\n

The music video has ever since its release been used in various programms for young drivers to make them aware of what consequences can alcohol behind the wheels have.<\/p>\n

The alternate song-titles for this song (appart from the commonly used “How Could This Happen To Me?”) – in order to distinguish it from other songs named also Untitled) – have been for example “How Can This Happen” or “How Can This Happen To Me”.<\/p>\n

Song lyrics<\/u><\/b><\/div>\n


\nI open my eyes
\nI try to see but I\u2019m blinded by the white light
\nI can\u2019t remember how
\nI can\u2019t remember why
\nI\u2019m lying here tonight<\/center><\/p>\n

And I can\u2019t stand the pain
\nAnd I can\u2019t make it go away
\nNo I can\u2019t stand the pain<\/p>\n

How could this happen to me
\nI made my mistakes
\nI\u2019ve got no where to run
\nThe night goes on
\nAs I\u2019m fading away
\nI\u2019m sick of this life
\nI just wanna scream
\nHow could this happen to me<\/p>\n

Everybody\u2019s screaming
\nI try to make a sound but no one hears me
\nI\u2019m slipping off the edge
\nI\u2019m hanging by a thread
\nI wanna start this over again<\/p>\n

So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
\nAnd I can\u2019t explain what happened
\nAnd I can\u2019t erase the things that I\u2019ve done
\nNo I can\u2019t<\/p>\n

How could this happen to me
\nI made my mistakes
\nI\u2019ve got no where to run
\nThe night goes on
\nAs I\u2019m fading away
\nI\u2019m sick of this life
\nI just wanna scream
\nHow could this happen to me<\/p>\n

I made my mistakes
\nI\u2019ve got no where to run
\nThe night goes on
\nAs I\u2019m fading away
\nI\u2019m sick of this life
\nI just wanna scream
\nHow could this happen to me<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
