Suitcases get tagged, prepare for jetlag
As you mount the stairs to the plane
Four layovers on your way over
You hope it doesn't drive you insane
Announcements vague as your house slips away
Leaving for another country
You flew the globe and moved your home
Five times before you were twenty
Now the transit stays just can't faze
Your ******** travel attitude
You never feel sick with the seats you pick
And adjust well to the altitude
But something inside nags and asks why
You're always in constant motion
You wonder how it would feel now
If you'd never crossed that ocean
You forget the feeling and just quit dealing
With memories left behind
But the thoughts come back, you've got some packed
In the luggage of your mind
