What Does It Mean to Travel (2018)

[Verse 1]
From departure to arrival
What does it mean to travel
With your suitcase by the handle
Holding everything you need
Are you going or are you coming
Walking slow or running
From somebody or from something
Trade your longing in for speed

[Hook]
And the freedom to be a stranger
Is a bargain that’s ours alone
Sometimes you just want to be someone else
Unencumbered and unknown

[Verse 2]
And from taking off to landing
You could feel your heart expanding
You walked halfway down Manhattan
Till you met the Brooklyn Bridge
And in a 2 AM transmission
From a high wire act position
How the skyline behind you glistened
As if someone pulled a switch

[Hook]
And I don’t want to be a stranger
And I don’t want to be alone
But sometimes I just want to be somewhere else
Untethered and unknown
When I am far from home

[Outro]
From departure to arrival
What does it mean to trave
