"Musician" lyrics

No, I don't miss the feeling anymore
Yeah, I want something new to love
I was so nostalgic
But I'm fine without it
You don't really want what you think you want
No, I don't wanna lose it
This emotion
Yeah, I just wanna do everything
I get so excited
When I finally find it
It just gets brighter from now on

Then you sigh
"You know I love you, so I think I should tell you, Porter
This life: isn't it time that you grow up?"

Oh, it's calling
I just can't stop, I'm sorry
I can feel a new day dawning
I burn up, burn out
I shouldn't do this to myself

But sincerely
Can't you feel what I'm feeling?
I can see my life so clearly
I burn up, burn out
I shouldn't do this to myself

Well, this is why we do it
For the feeling
How do you do music?
Well, it's easy
You just face your fears
And you become your heroes
I don't understand why you're freaking out

Then they say
"Fine, well do what you need to
But I don't want to see you
Wasting your life
Isn't it time you get a job?"

Oh, it's calling
I just can't stop, I'm sorry
I can feel a new day dawning
I burn up, burn out
I shouldn't do this to myself

But sincerely
Can't you feel what I'm feeling?
I can see my life so clearly
I burn up, burn out
I shouldn't do this to myself

But sincerely
Can't you feel what I'm feeling?
I can see my life so clearly
And I know it doesn't last
But I don't mind at all anymore

Oh, it's calling
I just can't stop, I'm sorry
I can feel a new day dawning
I burn up, burn out
I shouldn't do this to myself

But sincerely
Can't you feel what I'm feeling?
I can see my life so clearly
I burn up, burn out
I shouldn't do this to myself
