[Verse 1]
Called with the news, I thought you were kidding
You were always joking all the time
You kept breathing but stopped living
Held it like poison inside
They say everything happens for a reason
But it only makes you mad
'Cause how in the hell can you believe them
When nothing brings him back?

[Pre-Chorus]
It's hard to know
What he would say
I'd think he'd...

[Chorus]
Want you to live like the world's on fire
Want you to love like hearts don't break
Never look down when you walk thе wire
Like he madе it to 48, still made your birthday cake

[Verse 2]
All the pictures on the same wall
Looks like he just went to the store
When you look into the mirror
Does it make you miss him more?
Win or lose, he always had a smile
He'd always make your day
When you see the moon, do you remember?
He loved you there, and back
[Pre-Chorus]
It's hard to know
What he would say
I'd think he'd...

[Chorus]
Want you to live like the world's on fire
Want you to love like hearts don't break
Never look down when you walk the wire
Like he made it to his big day
Still made your birthday cake
(Mm-mm)
He still made it his big day
(Mm-mm-mm)

[Bridge]
Want you to live like the world's on fire
Want you to love like hearts don't break
Never look down when you walk the wire
Like he made it, he made it
Oh-oh

[Chorus]
Want you to live like the world's on fire
Want you to love like hearts don't break
Never look down when you walk the wire
Like he made it to his big day
Still made your birthday cake
Still made your birthday cake
[Outro]
He still made your birthday cake
