Believe

ok this is going to be long. i just created an acccount so that i could comment on this song.

first off, this song is amazing, no questionning, even though i didn't know anyone up there in the twin towers it means so much to me and everytime i hear it i cant help the tears crawling down my face, even when im just walking down a road and it comes on my mp3 ill get so upset and yet so joyful at the same time, it gives me so much hope for the human race in general, showing that there are some people willing to give their life for people they don't even know. Yet at the same time 9/11 showed the worse in the human race by the people that crashed the planes.

only 20 people were pulled out of the rubble alive in ground zero.

yellowcard's violinist was in the building that day and the firefighter that lead him to the exit kept saying 'everything's gonna be alright' and later on that day the firefighter died, this song is a tribute to him and they are saying that because that firefighter gave up his life for him, he has to do something good with his life and he wishes he could just say thankyou. The violin in this song is amazing. can you imagine that feeling? knowing that someone who had just saved you died and you didnt even get to thank him?

Imagine the person you love the most in this world, get a picture of them in your head, think of all the good things they've done for you and remember all the good times you've had with them, an uncountable number of people would have said goodbye to this person in the morning, this person would have gone off to work, gone off to work, and never came back, can you even imagine that? its practically impossible to imagine but it happened to so many people on 9/11 and it would have been more if it wasnt for the heroes of the day and yellowcard are thanking that.

there were 4 planes hijacked and supposed to hit buildings on the 9th of september 2001, two hit the twin towers, one on each, and one hit the pentagon and the other landed in a field. This is because some really heroic passengers on that plane knew they were going to die anyway, so somehow took over the plane and crashed in a field instead off another building, so therefore saving billions of people. and to think that we call footballers or actors heroes, that is what you call a true hero, and it makes me just want to scream and cry and hit everything simply because, it's not fair, why do the good have to die?

The firefighters were taking their job to the extreme, they didn't have to risk their lives to save others, but they did, because they believed.

'Wanna hold my wife when I get home Wanna tell the kids they'll never know how much I love to see them smile Wanna make a change or two right now Wanna live a life like you somehow Wanna make your sacrifice worthwhile' This part of the song completely sums it up for me, saying there gonna be thankful for the things they have, like their family aand allways let them know how much they love them. Then saying that they have to make it up by making a difference like the firefighter that saved him did.

refering back to the song, the speech under the song is taken from a speech at ground zero, so without a doubt it is about 9/11 but some of the lyrics sot of remind me of a christian meaning about jesus dying on the cross for our sins, so everything is gonna be alright and also, living in the image of christ, wanting to be like christ 'wanna live a life like you somehow'.

the last bit saying 'they can never forget' is true, it can never be forgotten, ever.

I'm sorry for the wishywashyness off this comment but theres so many things i want to just scream out but i cant put it into words, and ive only just started with this little bit. This is my ultimate favourite song and its so hard to explain what i feel and this kinda just sums it up, with some hope.

god bless the heroes

Hangoverv, you have got to be joking. I think you have blurred the lines between trying to capitalize off a tragedy and trying to say "thank you" to all those who helped. Apparently you think nobody should write a book, song, poem, or hell even talk about it since they might make money. It's not like Yellowcard is singing a song about how cool it was to see the buildings fall. They're saying Thank You.

well made song, one of the best on the cd :)

this is a better thing to write about besides whining about some bitch leaving you.

Not only was this not a song meant to capitalize on a national tragedy, it was an amazingly written song and a great tribute. By the way, Yellowcard sent free copies of this song to many of the firefighters and their families who were involved with 9/11. Very selfless act on there part, and it just earns them even more respect in my book.

This song is so uplifting. It makes you feel as if you never have to worry about anything....."Everything is gonna be alright"~bp

I was listening to this song on my mp3 player when I went to visit ground zero on sunday.

This song is beyond amazing. Everything it stands for, everything it can be seen as. As far as I know, the story about Yellowcard's violinist being in one of the towers on the 11th of Septemeber and this song being a tribute to the firefighter who pulled him out is true. This song is so strong, so inspirational and gets me thinking (personally) about how valubale life is. And how we need to take every chance we get to "Make your sacrifice worthwhile" which can also be a reference to Christ and his sacrifice on the cross.

The talking part in this song, near the end, is part of a speech given on the one year anniversary of the 9/11 attack. This song is absolutely beautiful and I used it's lyrics to support a very good friend of mine who battled cancer last year. Even though she is no longer with us, I still listen to this song often to remind myself to Stay Strong and I always think of my friend when I hear it. I also think of the sacrifices mad eon the day of 9/11. I was 6 hours away from New York City and 9 years old. I wasn't extremely close to the city, and I didn't know anyone in the towers, but I know people who did. It was a horrible loss, and that day united America so much that a lot of other people began to see exactly what this song is talking about.

Yellowcard is an amazing band and this song, those who were lost on September 11th, 2001 will never be forgotten for their bravery, sacrifice or contribution to this world.

dude isnt it "wanna make a change right here right now" idk but thats what i hear...

amazing song about 9/11
