Cam - Burning House

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.

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

Anyone still here 2024? Song still hits frr

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

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

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

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. ♥️♥️♥️

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.

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

This song brings comfort and pain, it never gets old..i can listen to this song for hours.

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.

Type of songs you don't find, they find you at the Ryt time

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

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

I guess because I’m recovering (8 months sober on the 17th) and having been born a child of addiction, that’s what this song reminds me of. I lost my dad to an overdose and this song reminds me of him. I would walk through fire to be near him. It’s like holding someone when your whole world is blowing up. It’s okay to be burning alive because you get to be near the person for a little longer.

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.

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 💖💔😪

You dont realize how much you love a person.... Until there gone. I lost so many people

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. ❤

When I was on meth and so was my loved one. This song was the closest thing that I could explain how I felt I’ve been clean 2 years now my life has changed. We are still together we bought a home and we are happier than we ever been but I will never forget this song because it’s so true when you are in drugs like that you are sleepwalking, and too close to the fire❤
