i hate hypothetical situations.

i hate the "if"s and even worse the "only if"s. and i despise "could've"s, "would've"s, and "should've"s. those are the worst. ever in life. you know why i bring this up? recently on the radio, a certain song caught my attention. you probably know it. every time a song by this band plays, an angel dies. well, let's see if you can guess who/what it is.

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.

nickelback, stop lying and face reality. yeah i understand you want to be optimistic and write a happy song with screechy vocals, go ahead. but don't lie to the public. good god. if you think about it, if everyone cared, loved, shared, and swallowed their pride and if nobody cried, lied, we'd be in heaven. i don't think it'd ever be possible. and people would die anyway. it's called natural selection. i might not be a evolutionist, but i know people die no matter how much people cared, loved, and shared. so nickelback, i suggest you go back to that photograph that makes you laugh and forget about everyone caring.

whats wrong with hypothetical situations, it sets you up for one day if you might actually be in one of those, or it provides a safehaven for dreamers to be in versus the harsh reality of the human plane.

i agree
everyone can go live in their happy fairyland. that'll get you real far in life. sure lets look at hypotheticals. but lets be realistic at the same time. idealism only goes so far. as for nickelback, they can keep sucking, as far as im concerned.

well, that's why "ifs" do exist. that's their sole purpose. i'm sure they're not lying to the public; it's just an "if". wishful dreaming for hopeful people. and you're right: we would be in heaven if all of those things mentioned. but that's why there is a heaven, so that those ifs can come true.
and trust me, i know more than ever about ifs and if onlys. but even if i do know that the ifs and if onlys wouldn't happen, it doesn't mean that i just stop thinking them. it haunts me, it kills me, it hurts. but it's still there. making something disappear is much harder than it seems.
now that i read that second paragraph, i'm not sure i make too much sense. or if it's even relative.
