Cam - Burning House

Who’s still listening to this in 2024 … 8 years Later???

My wife thinks I’m depressed because I like sad songs such as this one. I’m not depressed, I’ve just been through a lot in my life and these type of songs remind me of certain hard times that I made it through. Thank you Lord for never leaving my side.

This song was on the radio. I was waiting in the car line to pick up my children from school. I'll never forget it. I began to cry. I felt broken. This was years ago, but I remember it vividly.

Reading through the comments, this song has touched so many people, myself included. What a blessing it is that one person's words and emotions are transformed into song and passed on to resonate with and touch millions of people. It's a ripple effect of profound emotional movement. Thank you Cam being a beacon in the lives of many. ♥️♥️♥️

I wonder if this woman knows how much she makes us all cry

Here is a big gentle hug for anyone here who needs one.

I have written/performed hardcore, emo, and pop-punk music for the last fifteen years. This song has had a chokehold on me since it came out - it doesn’t need to be this huge sounding, complex piece to hit the emotions it does. Forever one of the best songs ever written.

I absolutely love this song it puts me in tears every time she's an amazing singer I love her

Who’s listening in 2020? This song never disappoints.

I’ve been married to the love of my life and best friend since I was 18. We’ve been married 13 years this year. All of which he’s been in the army. 4 deployments in a very dangerous job.... he’s got a Purple Heart and has nearly died too many times.... the physical death he survived but over our marriage, I’ve slowly watched the man I have loved all of my adult life die a little more each time he left us and came home. He’s always been an amazing husband and father but I saw the changes. Barely... but saw them. In October of last year, he out of the blue asked for a divorce. Said he hadn’t loved me for a long time and he just wanted me to move on... that I deserved more. I begged and pleaded like I never have before.... but he stood firm. Fast forward to me packing our kids and preparing to me.... I discover that he was planning on killing himself and didn’t want me to blame myself so if I thought he didn’t love me, it wouldn’t hurt me so much. And he didn’t want me to find him..... the man who has always held me up and made me laugh, who has loved me at my worst, thought we would be better off without him... that he was too broken for us.... I’ve always loved this song.... but now it has a meaning for my that is heart wrenching. I think of my husbands mental resilience weakening deployment after deployment. I think of me staying in the fires of hell so that I can give him comfort and get him through the pain. It’s knowing how everything we thought we knew was burned up in flames, scorched and left blackened.... to withstand the fires, hold him through the nightmares, do anything to make him feel safe. I’ll never hear this song and not hurt. I still have my husband and he has decided to medically retire but we have so many things to work through and we both need each other to do it. Love this song so much

I was really young when this came out. My parents where in a abusive relationship. I was like 4 im now 11. I remember my mom playing this song and I just learned it from there. I never knew the meaning about it. Now I cry when I listen to it. Realizing what my mom went through. It always brings back so many memories. Thank you cam.

Finally, a real country song…like the 90’s and 00’s stuff I grew up on. Thanks Cam.

Am I the only one who thinks her face is so peaceful?

Sometimes it doesn't matter how GOOD, loyal or in love you are....once your expiration date comes love turns into hell..sometimes we love so truly that it destroys us

This song makes me wanna hug the little girl inside of me and tell her that everything will be okay!

I'm a Metal head...Love Rock/Metal..I was raised on Country/Bluegrass as a kid...I think this song is awesome. Brings out a lot of emotion. ❤

I've been fighting depression/ anxiety for 10 years. Coincidentally since my wife kicked me out. I left everything. I just found this song, while looking for a female rendition of "I'm on fire" maybe even done a little different. The vid the words, damn..... I will be damned. A flood. The wetness. DAMN. The emotions still haven't stopped. She WAS my forever. I've been so hard on myself. It's got to end, I want to live, I've been learning, to admit, speak, acknowledge. Heal. Works for me. I'm so very thankful it found me. Thank you so much.

Sang this to my brother before he got real sick and then sang it to him some more while he was fighting to live .. he passed 3/17/18 and I sang it to him one last time after he had passed . I miss you so much already bubba .. it’s killing my heart . But I’m trying to find comfort in knowing your with my son now and you’ve got your angel wings 💖💔😪

Well 2023 and I only just heard this song a few months ago. It is incredible how messages from God or our loved ones who have passed can come to us when we need them most. Music very clearly has the life changing ability to offer us healing. A good song can give you the words to which you didn't realize you needed to say and a way to process the emotion that comes with those words in order to hold space for them and move forward. To a healthier version of yourself. Once a song does that for you it can forever take you right back to the pain and the place we were in when we needed it most. Reminds us of how far we have come and what it has taken to get us here to who we are now. Beautiful song that I can say has a very personal meaning! One that some of you have commented on with similar stories. Some of you with very different ones. I know I will always have gratitude and respect for the music, the artist and the song! It will always be a part of me! ,, 💜💜💜 To anyone who can relate to this song... My thoughts prayers and well wishes are with you! No matter your story.... YOU ARE NEVER ALONE!
