Skillet - Would It Matter Lyrics






If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anybody care?
If my time was up I'd wanna know
You were happy I was there.

If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anyone lose sleep?
If I wasn't hard and hollow
Then maybe you would miss me.

I know I'm a mess and I wanna be someone
Someone that I'd like better.
I can never forget.
So, don't remind me of it forever (forever).

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?

If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anybody care?
Still stuck inside this sorrow.
I've got nothing and going nowhere.

I know I'm a mess and I wanna be someone,
Someone that I'd like better.
I can never forget.
So, don't remind me of it forever.

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?

I know I'm a mess and I wanna be someone,
Someone that I'd like better.
Can you help me forget?
Don't wanna feel like this forever (forever).

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?

If I left tomorrow
Would anybody care?
Stuck in this sorrow.
Going nowhere.

All the chances that have passed me by.
Would it matter if I gave it one more try?
Would it matter at all?

  12. _.... 4....

    When I realized this song was made 10 years ago I'm just questioning like: YT, why? I've been a fan for so long now, why didn’t I get this before? What the screw?

  13. F.... C....

    reminds me of me and my dog archer

    F.... C....

  14. G.... 3....

    I was thinking about this Thursday december 12 ,2019 not the song but what he is saying like if i left would anyone care i like this song thanxs for making it skillet

  15. R.... D....

    😂😭
    The two looks of depression....

  16. K.... s....

    People always tell depressed people that god is there for them, but if god was really there for us, why would he let us suffer? Why would he let his "perfect creation" go through a type of pain worse than anything physical?

    K.... s....

    That is literally what I was thinking since the day I felt like shit, people keep asking me if I believe in god and truth is Idk.. if there was a god why would he let me suffer and other people who kill themselves suffer? I mean Im really on the edge of killing myself too because its so fucking hard, I feel so ugly, maybe because I am and I have nobody.. like really nobody to take to or go out with or have fun I have not a single friend now and I feel like crap, Im not good enough for anyone and anything I never thought it will get that bad after I graduated school.. im only 19 and I've had enough of life I just dont wanna live anymore but im afraid that if ill try to kill myself ill fail or get really hurt and it will be so painful and ill have to live with it the rest of my shitty life (sorry for that long reply I just had to write in somewhere and get it off my "heart")

    K.... s....

    either way if god is real or not,our suffering has nothing to do with him,we hurting each other,not him.
    but one fact is there are more spiritual unknown powers than human beings,therefore we feel the need to believe something deeper and bigger than ourselves whether or not it's true,also I truly believe not every soul in this universe ready for this generation,from my point of view the creation of human will cause destruction to "earth" sooner or later.

  17. S.... ....

    I relate to this song so much.

  18. S.... A....

    it really sucks that after everything you've done to try and get better and be better it still doesn't matter. all the time you spent was a waste of time and you end up becoming the same evil person you were trying to avoid being and everyone starts hating you right before you die. nobody will care when i leave, they would either be glad the problem is gone or upset they lost their punching bag.

  19. C.... M....

    People hurt other's and don't give a shit. All other people do is judge other's. But the truth is god is the only one who can judge. Cause his word says judge not and you will not be judged. People are mean and evil. And wicked in this world.

  20. C.... L....

    Suffering in silence

  21. D.... E....

    I'm starting to think that it wouldn't matter at all...

  22. b.... p....

    for me it wouldn't

  23. Q.... Q....

    Oof Sad Atmosphere In The Comments Yikes

  24. K.... x....

    Veteran with ptsd
    Some days I wanna quit
    So tired of the pills, the therapy and the constant war inside me.
    I just want a cold black silence

  25. D.... F....

    I'm about to drop choir. Which is a lot for me to say. It's been my place of comfort since my freshman year, I'm a senior now. It's like a family. I finally got into the top choir against all odds. But it's too hard. I don't look forward to class anymore. I skip a lot.
    I often think of if I had just pulled it together, tried harder or done better if it would feel different. But I don't think it would. I've made my choice, I'm going to drop as soon as I can.

  26. A.... B....

    The sad part is, when you try so hard and people think you aren't trying at all😭

    A.... B....

    So true

  27. Z.... ....

    Word For Word........

  28. W.... M....

    Lost everything in my life. I have nothing to hold on to. You promise a future but you don't promise me a better tomorrow. You yell and scream, why? What did I do to you? I sit here opening my mind, my heart and my soul. You are so cynical, you're diabolical. You're killing me, so what if I just took my life.

  29. E.... C....

    Really, would it? 🤔

    E.... C....

    Good question🤔

  30. T.... ....

    Everything, ultimately, is temporary. Pain, and the love that causes it.

  31. D.... ....

    I wonder if I will feel anything

  32. C.... H....

    I just moved to a new school, and I keep having mental breakdowns everyday, cause I’m not used to people caring about me... it’s hard when you’ve suffered your whole life

  33. S.... R....

    This is my life

  34. L.... G....

    Would it matter if I had some form of a friend to fade away this unhappiness I keep feeling inside?

  35. D.... R....

    I just lost my best friend, and it’s all my fault. I pushed her away and never listened, and now she’s avoiding me, not wanting to talk to me at all. It hurts so much because she’s my best friend, the only real one I’ve ever had 😔

  36. 0.... ....

    It's crazy how much music can say the things we can't. I hate that I feel this song so deeply. It's beautiful but I'm tired of the pain. I'm tired of loving people so hard, no matter what kinda role they play in my life. It all only hurts me more. People just don't love deeply. The few of us that do struggle because it's never to that same level. It's just life and it has its reasons or lessons. But sometimes it f*cking sucks. No matter what tho, I'll never shut it off because I can't be one of those people.

  37. B.... R....

    That's why I don't try anymore. Sometimes nothing left to give.

  38. M.... G....

    Sometimes I think it would be better for everyone if I was dead. Everyone I loved or cared about is always hurt. My boyfriend is in jail. I told him I loved him and the next day he got arrested.

  39. M.... F....

    Theme song of my life

  40. T.... P....

    I love this song so much.. It maybe the last one I decide to listen too, in this fleeting moment on earth.

  41. B.... S....

    This is pretty much how it is for me when it comes to my music stuff. Marching band, show choir, plays. My director, and a lot of the other students are always telling me that I suck, I'm no good. I love making music, I picked up guitar just recently. But, I'm always being told I should just give up. Everyday I walk into the band room, not wanting to go. But I do it cuz I know I won't be in highschool forever, so I still go. I know I don't have to do these things for them. If they don't like it, they can suck it up. I know not everyone does my stuff, this may apply to anything really. Sports, academics, etc. Never stop trying. Rock on!

  42. M.... D....

    Missed opportunities
    mistakes
    Lost chances
    God dammed endless frustration
    Bottomless depression when you feel that everything you do will fail anyway so why bother?

    That seems to sum up my life right now and it fucking sucks

  43. G.... R....

    I have asked myself these question cause I honestly feel like no one cares about me

  44. M.... M....

    It mattered. After attempting to end my days twice, my latest suicide attempt which occurred seven years ago, it did matter. Since then, I relocated and moved away from my traumatic hometown, I finished graduate school, I turned 28, overcame life-threatening health issues, I mended my relationships with my friends and family, changed my appearance and demeanor and I deal better with my sorrow. Never thought that hitting rock bottom would lead me to mature so much. I'm far from perfectly happy but there's more acceptance and less guilt.

  45. M.... E....

    And yet I found myself back here, listening to this song once again, two years later.

    M.... E....

    Matthews ES omg same

    M.... E....

    @Arky Sensei I'm back in a depressed state that's gone on for two months so far. Two years ago was the late time it was this bad. So here I am

  46. M.... A....

    Em C G D

  47. I.... ....

    For anyone that is reading this going through depression as I am. As you ask yourself those questions and feel empty, just remember the the silent majority CARES. I've been nothing but kind and nice but yet watched as everyone important to me just walked on out of my life. People dont realize how important someone is until they are no longer there and available. Just know that you have a voice and it matters to me. It matters to more than you can see. And one day when you find your passion and build your strength you will remember that little voice telling you that you couldn't was wrong and pessimistic all along. Avicii's music has helped me through a lot so far and will continue to inspire. Who inspired you? Much love and take care all!

    I.... ....

    Thank you.

    I.... ....

    Don't give up

  48. P.... ....

    I cant give up but damn I'm allowed to break down and cry. Tomorrow I'll get up and continue like this never happened. I truly hate myself and my life but I wont give up.

  49. M.... A....

    lyric vids like this are the songs that really hit. wish i feel like i have worth on this earth

  50. L.... L....

    @HIKAGAMING91 SO SHITTY I KNOW ITD MATTER AND YOUD CARE

    L.... L....

    @HIKAGAMING91 GO AHGEAD STAY SILENT AND CLOSE LIPPED YOU FKING BASTARD PRAY FOR THE GENUINELY MUTE

  51. K.... ....

    I think music has given me more comforting then any one person in my whole life...

  52. K.... ....

    He told me I was his everything, and now I'm trying to convince him to stop from leaving me a year later...


    Why are people so fickle?

  53. y.... t....

    I'm tired of trying. No one likes what they see. Ik I'm not a model like girls on magazines or on TV but I guess now days that's all boys or girls who like girls want is a model same in reverse. I just wish people actually meant it when they said only their personalities is what counts. ,😭💔 Would it matter at all

    y.... t....

    I know you've been dealing with a lot of shallow, rude guys but I promise you, not all of us are like that (: Don't worry, I'm 100% sure that you'll find the guy you were meant to be with in time. Don't try to fight for people who want nothing to do with you, it'll only lead to hurt. Why not take this time to focus on yourself and your own mental health and learn to love yourself before you try to love someone else? I'm rooting for ya, fam :D

    y.... t....

    @Annsley Kast thank you n I'm trying

  54. A.... I....

    A trophy's father trophy son and now this...😭😭😭😭

  55. L.... O....

    Don't give up. Keep fighting. While it is hard, I can't think of a reason to die. Why is this? Because, despite what it seems, there are still good people out there, others who need help. We keep fighting, we live so that we can help others. Remember those dogs that are euthanized? What about those who need blood donations? Heart transplants? Those senior citizens who have no one to talk to. Keep living because you can make a difference, which is the only thing I believe is truly worth living for.

  56. S.... s....

    Silence is bullying too. At school im not wver targeted...which is great....except no one notices me and either i sit alone or with friends that prob think they drag me along cause they pity me. My froemds at church are great. But at school i dont exist

  57. T.... u....

    I found this song thinking I didn't belong or was wanted in this world and when I found these comments, they saved my life. Everyone thank you, you are life savers.

  58. A.... D....

    I just really like the song and the beat.

  59. A.... D....

    So umm this song really gets me but Im not a bad person.

  60. B.... ....

    I just keep fighting. Only to piss the bullies and demons off. To show them that they won't break me, that they failed to shatter my soul. Just keep fighting. One day, it will be better, I promise.

  61. C.... Y....

    And it's cause we fail in that one exam or one job or one relationship which mattered the most

  62. C.... Y....

    Sometimes we have done so much wrong
    Or have so much to blame ourselves that we can't see the right and gud we did

    We are always with that itch and feeling that it's our fault
    Even if it's gud
    It's our fault

    We are to be blamed for everything 😩😩

    C.... Y....

    Clear your exams TY, you made think of all the good things I done for people and I don't feel as useless and a jerk. So again Thank You.

  63. G.... R....

    I ask myself these questions all the time thanks to all the people that hurt me

  64. P.... G....

    I’ve Ben stabed I’ve Ben shot I’ve Ben betrayed...I felt this more

    P.... G....

    Pro Gaming I think you mean been

    P.... G....

    I just now noticed i fucking hate atto correct

  65. R.... M....

    AragonPK10. Now that's a name I haven't heard in a while.

  66. J.... J....

    This song hits deep

  67. T.... ....

    Here we go again

  68. N.... E....

    really hits home when you're wondering wtf you're doing in life & feeling insignificant with no career, no job, no money, completely dependent on your SO, & no idea what you want out of life or where you want to go

  69. t.... d....

    This song kind of hurts. I used to be tempted to commit suicide. Only God kept me going. Now I'm glad I didn't kill myself. I still have those days, but God is good and He loves me. He loves you, too. If you are depressed or considering suicide, comment on this so I can pray for you. God bless, and don't give up.

  70. R.... C....

    The first bit of this song reminds me of another song but I can't remember which song it's doing my heading!!

  71. S.... P....

    I know I'm a mess and i wanna be someone
    Someone that I'd like better
    I can never forget, so don't remind me of it forever!

  72. A.... V....

    We've all feel like this some times. We can beat it if u try

  73. E.... ....

    I can feel myself getting really bad again.

  74. i.... r....

    I want to die.

  75. D.... G....

    I can relate to this song very much atm. It goes right through the heart

  76. F.... G....

    I feel dead inside...like I'm asleep inside... nobody cares and wakes me up inside...I feel like giving up...I need a hug from someone who cares...I wanna be loved

    F.... G....

    i've been there before. know that there is a whole community of others who are going through exactly what you are dealing with as we type our messages back and forth.

    F.... G....

    @Atamosk1221
    U...u cared... that's...I...feel like I've awoken...I used to feel loved...now it feels like my parents don't love me anymore... I'm scared my one friend since sixteen years ago doesn't like me anymore
    Thank you for your time

    F.... G....

    @Atamosk1221
    I actually am aware...I was planning on starting a...sort of thing on YouTube...like therapy...called F.A.Y.D...Fight against your depression...but my hopes and dreams of having a channel died with it...plus I can't fight my own

  77. M.... n....

    My sister committed suicide 4 years ago after Christmas day and since then I have been a mess and keep blaming my self for it, I Remember having a conversation with her the day before about our problems with depression and all the shit we had to go through out the years, if only I could've had the responsibility of the older brother and be their for her more often I freaking hate myself so much for that, I still can't forget being the one who found her dead in her room the following morning and to this day I still get nightmares about it, katty I'm so sorry I love you and I miss you 💔

    M.... n....

    I'm so so sorry. I cannot even begin to imagine what that would be like. Sending love 🖤

  78. E.... ....

    Turns on sub titles "If I was Ninja ... Would anyone care.." Is this Naruto xD

  79. C.... H....

    When you have been destoryed by people who you trusted and you are trying so hard, does it really matter?

  80. S.... ....

    I just wanna write it down somewhere.
    I was 3 when my parent divorced. I have a sister who hates me since I was born. When I was 6 my mother meet my stepfather and finally I felt happy because I had a family. In the scool I was bullied because we had no money, and I had to wear any clothes we could get. The only friend I've had always made fun of me in front of everyone, and she was hitting me whenever I didn't agreed with her. She always said to me, that I'm so bad at everything and I'm also ugly as hell, but she's better than me at everything, so I need to respect her. After a few years thing get worst. I got home from scool to deal with my alcohol addict stepfather and my depressed mother. I did all the housework and taked care all of our animals (we had goats, chickens and swines). This is when my little brother had born. A year passed by and my mother got brain cancer. My stepfather started bullying her, because of her sickness, and only I was there for my one year old brother and my mother. I was 11 at the time. I had to be the pillar to keep everything together. My stepfather started hurting mom, because he though that she was cheating on him. I think this is where he tried to commit suicide in front of all of us. I can't forget my mother screaming to us to stay in the room and don't come out. He went to a mental hospital and we moved away. It wasn't exactly moving away more like running away? We had to pack our things in one afternoon, and left a lot of memories in that house. Even if we started a new life, I still have trust problems and I'm scared of people. Somehow I felt broken after we went through this. Never before. I had suicidal thoughts, and started cutting my arm and legs. I had problems at my new school too, but this time I wasn't bullied just not accepted. I had to realize, no one gonna help the broken ones, everyone wants to have a perfect relationship with a flawless person. So I started act like one. I'm getting better, I feel better but I still have panic attack sometimes. I'm getting used to it, I'm feeling better. I stopped cutting myself, and finally have self respect. I'm 19 now and my stepfather gone missing about 2 months now. Somehow I feel bad about this, I loved him but I don't know why. He was so desperate, I don't even know if he's alive or not.
    Thank you for hearing me out. I really needed this. If you need anyone to talk to, I'm here to listen.

  81. R.... S....

    For everyone that reads this I will see y’all later in the after life it’s my time to go no one loves me and I can’t be loved love wasn’t meant fir me I had a girl for over a year now she doesn’t know what she wants life isn’t worth living without her I been really sad and depressed and can’t sleep so ima end it 💔

  82. n.... m....

    I've held on so long and wished I could disappear but nothing gets better

  83. B.... O....

    Been there.

  84. L.... A....

    Atleast i have phone who kept me away from trying to harm myself and kept me away from pain by escaping the reality and live on the fantasy😢😢

  85. W.... B....

  86. B.... J....

    Gay ass Batman voice singing bitch. Fuck this song

  87. K.... ....

    It's hard to realise, but that's true. We don't matter. We just come and pass by, just another little rat in the crowd of billions. BUT that does not mean we sholud cry or kill ourselfes. Just live YOUR life, not someone's else.

  88. I.... M....

    Funeral Song

  89. N.... R....

    Why? Why is he here?
    Why am I here?
    I *HATE* him...
    I hate the guy who acts idiotic just to get fake friends when in fact he is incredibly smart...
    I hate the guy who guilt trips people by saying he's going to give up just to get them into feeding his hunger for everything...
    I hate the guy who hurts everyone and "loves" them at the same time...
    I hate the guy who is too lazy to do anything while his old dad works his back off on money he's just going to waste...
    I hate the guy who never listens and yet thinks he deserves at least something...
    Oh... Wait...
    He's me...
    ................
    Oh well...
    I doesn't matter anymore anyways....
    I'm too far down to see any light anymore....
    I don't care anymore...
    I'm just going to sleep the pain away...
    Like my gone mom did...

  90. T.... O....

    This is the song im probably going to slit my wrists to when it's time

  91. M.... G....

    It sucks when i tried tried and tried to hold on to you hoping you would put yourself toghter and you hurt the most precious person to me, my son. I could have been patient with everything except him. Good luck

  92. G.... ....

    I listen to this song when I need to cry to make myself feel better. Today I found out my older brother wrote an essay on my fathers death and how it tore him apart. I wish I could tell them I’m not the kid they remember at all. I’m a simple shell now, and this helps get the tears out to make me feel better about myself. People do care, don’t led your mind cloud your judgement. I wish I could become the kind and caring happy-go-lucky kid I was till that day. Maybe if I can learn to truly love again I’ll become whole. Don’t forget: people care about you. Never doubt that.

  93. A.... S....

    One of the people who helped saved my life a couple years ago just died very young Two nights ago. My lifes gone to relative shit, I'm probably not going to college anytime soon. I'm a disgusting chubby fuck who will never find love whatsoever. And nobody cares. Nobody understands. I'm just a cunt really. In the end I don't matter.

  94. R.... ....

    whoever you are who reads this
    you matter ❤

  95. N.... ....

    I want ALL of my memories ERASED

  96. P.... R....

    I never sold the copyright details of my life to skillet
