Adam Linder - Burning Up lyrics

It's the happiest day of the year And I'm still alive But I don't know how And I couldn't tell you why For the first time in a long time I can finally say that I'm glad To be breathing and feeling Tonight made the world not seem as bad This is the story Of half a year of my life in a nutshell Though it's badly cracked, I am still intact And I've been healing well This is a warning A reminder of just how cold it can get My fear of regret If I ever let this happen again I was waking up And cursing the hands on my clock And I was breaking up My nights are so bland and my days taste like chalk And I was burning up I thought I might freeze; I was down on my knees in surrender But now I am fixing up I've put it the effort, and now I feel better than ever I was burning up I thought I might freeze; I was down on my knees in surrender Now I'm all fixed up And I swear I am better than ever I swear I am better than ever But I never stay better forever But this just wouldn't feel right Without a song of hope And I'll be damned If I end on a minor note And in four more bars This will all end where it began These white boy blues And this clichéd guitar in my hand
