    Lyrics-
    V1
    if I wasnt here tomorrow would anybody care
    if my time was up Id wanna know
    You were happy I was there
    if I wasnt here tomorrow would anyone lose sleep
    if I wasnt hard and hollow
    Then maybe you would miss me
    Pre
    I know Im a mess and I wanna be someone
    Someone that Id like better
    I can never forget, so dont remind me of it forever
    Chorus
    What if I just pulled myself together
    Would it matter at all
    What if I just tried not to remember
    Would it matter at all
    All the chances that have passed me by
    Would it matter if I gave it one more try
    Would it matter at all
    V2
    if I wasnt here tomorrow would anybody care
    Still stuck inside this sorrow
    I got nothin and going nowhere
    Post bridge
    I know Im a mess and I wanna be someone
    Someone that Id like better
    Can you help me forget, dont wanna feel like this forever
    Outro
    If I left tomorrow would anybody care
    Stuck in this sorrow
    Going nowhere

    this song has the power to either utterly destroy you emotionally or light a fire in your heart to do better. That is the magic of Skillet songs.

      This song is me in a nutshell.
      This song really revealed to me how I actually feel about myself. I actually wonder how small my impact is and even though people care, would it matter. And I have regrets that are small, but thoughts, feelings, and aspects that just kill me to think about.
      This song chokes me up everytime I hear it... but it also encouraged me to find a solution to those problems.

    This song is literally my life. It makes me cry every time I hear it. And I don't think anyone would care if I wasn't here tomorrow. I just hold on and pray. Skillet gives me hope.

      I hear your pain, my friend. I know that I also have that feeling sometimes, and what really helps me is to remember that the Truth is that there are people who love me, appreciate me, and respect me. I absolutely promise you that there are people who feel just like that for you!

    I don't understand why some people are arguing for almost TWO YEARS! WOW! 1. Yes Skillet is a Christian band but, they don't flaunt it. I listened to them for a couple years without realizing it. I'm not Christian BUT, I still love them. They help me express myself, if I can't put what I'm trying say in words I tell people I'm close with to listen to certain songs. 2. Everyone has an opinion on touchy subjects. In this case, Religion and Creation. I personally have my own combined beliefs. (I'm not going to say them.) People shouldn't hate someone else for their "PERSONAL" opinions, if you do you just seem low and cold. In my own opinion. Especially if you have NO earthly clue who he or she is. On top of that, there's no need for such horrid insults and threats. 3. Move On! I'm sure some of guys have got better things to do than this, I'm come on. And if you don't I really feel bad for you. There has even been some people saying they're done arguing but, they keep going any ways. Give it up people, move on already. Again, going on TWO YEARS! It's 3:13 AM I'm going to bed, because I'm moving on and am done.

      +Andree Shepard I agree with these, but I do find it annoying when people state their opinions very rudely. I once met a person who said: "Ugh I don't believe in Christianity, it's so f*cking stupid and everyone who believes in that must be an a**hole" You're completely right, but people shouldn't state their opinion if it's very insulting. Especially on social media where everyone can see it.

    This song is one of my favorites. Ever time I listen to it, I think of what if I wasn't here the next day, would the people in my life continue on the same as now but with a different person, slowly move on remembering me, or continue on as if I was never there. Its something I like to think about when I listen to this song.

    I've loved this song since the first time I heard it. Reason? Simple. I can relate to it. When I get down, I need songs like that, something that's.. depressing. BUT this song is not only something to relate to, it's something that helps me up on my legs again. Almost all songs by Skillet have that effect on me, even if I can relate to them or not. And that's why Skillet will forever be my favourite band out of all bands out there in this world.

    I don't have any personal story about anyone almost killing themselves, or something of that sort. I'm just here to say that someone, somewhere will miss you. They may not know it now - and even if they did they may not have the courage to say it - but there is someone out there. It may not be now, but it will happen. It may not be easy, but nothing worth having is easily gained. It may be painful, but gold is purified by fire many times over, each time getting more and more intense, all for an end result worth absurd amounts of money.
    You do matter, someone does care!

      @ThePoutamo 9 лет назад +1

      Gigi Paradox Everyone have ups and downs in thier Life, but when I feel bad I try to Think about the benefits and the privelge of being who I am and being right here right now.
      I am a athiest and I Believe that we may be living in the golden age of Life, and golden age of time.
      I Think it was 13 billion years ago, when big bang started ( I could be wrong), it had all the energy that concentrated in one spot, and then it exploded, Everything was created in an instant, and here we are today. our future is uncertain but we were put here.
      Everything lined up correctly after that explosion and Life began on Earth, there might be Life on other planets, and there might not be, I Believe there is, when we consider how big the universe is. One thing is for sure though, It won't be like this forever, just as sure as we were created, just as sure as all energy blasted out, it is escaping, there will be a time when there are no stars on the sky, when Life cease to exist in this universe.
      Basically Life will end, the future is black, the future is darkness, but we are living in a golden age, when Life is able to flourish among the galaxys, and we have been designated for Earth. I know what I want to do, I want to live my Life, be with those I love, avoid those that hurt me, and disvover more about this facinating Place, and have fun of course.

      @corruptedomegaa.i302 9 лет назад

      ThePoutamo Pretty out of question, but what do you believe to be the Benefits of being you?I am curious about that.
      I myself tought about the idea of "OH, IM GOOD FOR SOMETHING.", but i always found someone else who could do it, or do it even better.

    • @ThePoutamo
      @ThePoutamo 9 лет назад +1

      Corrupted Omega A.I Yes, that is exactly what I mean.. I Believe in myself, That I am capable of taking care of any threat or obstacle in Life, I Believe that my friends, strangers everyone around me even you can do anything you want. I Believe that humans are strong. If I would be in danger, would god help me than, If i got sick will he help me than, will i be cured?
      Praying is a waste of time, It doesn't make me stronger,faster or improve my Health in any way. I also Believe that You and I everyone are wrong about god. As you may know I don't Believe in god, but Let's say god exist. I don't Think We can even begin to imagine how he works, We are basically giving the creator of the universe Human traits, I Think that if god exist he is much more grand and complex beyond anyones imagination and therefore Giving him human traits and praying doesn't solve anything.
      But I don't Believe in him, I don't Think god exist at least not the christian god, Everyone got thier own interpetation of him and therefore no one knows how he will act, I think Science gives a much better explanation to pretty much Everything.

      ThePoutamo Oh. That is a new point of view i never tought about :P
      And i just consider christians to be Brainwashed people, it is easier that way.
      Their Blind faith is just absurd. All the evidence i see about his Existence is a Book, probably wrote by Mankind, as the histories told by it are in the same level as the ones that i heard during my Childhood.
      Funny how most of them claim that i'll Burn in hell for that.

    I've adopted this song as my anthem. It's reminded me, like a few other songs, alongside my imagination wanting an animation/movie to go along with songs, that I should keep going. In fact, I'd say that my music is pretty much the only thing keeping me alive. Aside from the fact that I'm a coward. But that's another story. I cry every time I hear this song, and I've only heard it today, but have listened to it since 4:15 pm my time.

    This song makes me think of people who think their useless. But everyone has a mission at earth. So NEVER loose hope. Everybode is special, and everybody has someone who cares about them. You'll see...
