Nothing's Burning Lyrics

I did it today, I made myself say
And I take back my tears, my sight, my love
No more does your magic work
On my heart
No more will your words ever tear me apart

I know now for certain
Nothing’s burning anymore

And I came strolling alone
Like your perfect girl in your perfect song
You’ll forget who fixed you, in a little while

I know for certain
There's nothing burning anymore
I know now forever
Nothing’s burning anymore

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm surprised there are no comments for this song yet.

I believe the meaning of this song involves a betrayal within a relationship, which she is now finally coming to terms with. 'You'll forget who fixed you in a little while'. She probably felt bitter that her lover had already forgotten about her, and begun to see someone else. Maybe she felt that she 'fixed' him due to some problem he had that she helped him get rid of, or maybe it was that he slept around a lot, and once she was with him she was sure she'd fixed that, and they'd grow old together happily.

Maybe it's the realisation that he's forgetting about her that helps her feel like she's getting over him - but then of course, it could be denial, as the song sounds very emotionally painful. If she made herself say that she's taking back the love, then it's not coming easily.
