If Everyone Cared - Nickelback


From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive

[Chorus:]
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died

And I'm singing

Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
(I'm alive)

[Chorus x2]

And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died...

[Chorus]

We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died

Watch Video

In Nickelback’s video for song, If Everyone Cared, the message being sent is that we all need to help out and do what we can to make our world a better place. Now it always seems like everyone has something to complain about but if instead of complaining, if those people took action they could actually fix those problems. History has proven that just one person can have a huge impact on the world, so if everyone pitched in a little a big difference could come about. In the music video for this song there are many examples of one person makings a change in society. The world is constantly changing and we have the power to influence how it changes. So we need to be thankful for what we have and help out when we can, because even just one selfless act could save a life.
