Imagine
Avril Lavigne Lyrics

Imagine there's no Heaven
Visualize a world that doesn't need religion, heaven or afterlife to make it enjoyable.

It's easy if you try
The world without religion seems obtainable if people try to see it one way.

No hell below us
A reality without hellfire and damnation can coexist with the world without heavenly rewards.

Above us only sky
The world without religion can still have the vastness of an endless sky above us.

Imagine all the people
If people imagine what the world might be like without religion, they can see a whole new world emerging.

Living for today
The focus shifts to the present and what we can do to make things better now.

Imagine there's no countries
Encouraging the thought of the world without borders which can reduce tensions and conflicts.

It isn't hard to do
The world without countries seems possible if everyone envisions it together.

Nothing to kill or die for
Without different nations out to defend their premise and land, there's no need to sacrifice for war.

No religion too
No religion, caste, creed or colour to fight or die for.

Living life in peace
A world where peace coexists with diversity, cultures and customs.

You may say I'm a dreamer
Some may consider her utopian ideas far-fetched.

I'm not the only one
Others also believe in such a world without the tides of war, poverty and conflicts.

I hope someday you'll join us
It's a hope that everyone would take necessary steps to bring about a change to the current state of the world and join them.

And the world will be as one
The world can coexist peacefully as one unit, devoid of religious, national, and economic divides.

Imagine no possessions
Jealousy, materialism and conflict can lessen in the world that places less emphasis on what people possess.

I wonder if you can
It is a request to think about how the world would look if there were no social distinctions created by one's belongingness.

No need for greed or hunger
A world that has enough resources to satisfy all and where sharing is key.

A brotherhood of man
A world where people are one and treat each other equally, without any prejudices.

Sharing all the world
The coexistence of abundance and of an equitable distribution of worldly resources.

And you
This is the message directed towards the listener.

You may say that I'm a dreamer
This is the response to those who say that these ideas are unrealistic.

I'm not the only one
There are others who envision a similar world.

I hope someday you'll join us
Through this song, it is hoped that people will be inspired by the idea of the world without the usual divides, with the objective of making it a reality.

And the world will live as one
When people can live without the parameters imposed by these aspects, it can lead to a more productive and peaceful world.
