Flying away from all my problems
Maybe someone on the ground can solve them
Denial is my jet fuel
Working in a mile-high step stool
Back then, I was broke and jobless
Now I'm in the sky, I feel so awesome
I'm bigger now, like I ate a mushroom
My past shells are coming back, and they're quite blue
Brace yourselves
For some turbulence now
Jet lag, my body's in the past
I wanna lie with closed eyes, flat on my back
All these time zone changes and all of these flights
I gotta keep fighting or I'll be up all night
Jet lag, my body's in the past
Way too tired, exhaustion's on the attack
To many sore elbows, too many red eyes
I gotta make it through the day and it'll be alright
Going through a storm, seeking passage
I carry on with too much baggage
I hope I lose my suitcase
Climbing at least a ten thousand-foot staircase
If we land, we'll have too much baggage
Scared of heights, but I will manage
But I know that I'm running in place
You always find me, you know my true face
Brace yourselves
For some turbulence now
Jet lag, my body's in the past
I wanna lie with closed eyes, flat on my back
All these time zone changes and all of these flights
I gotta keep fighting or I'll be up all night
Jet lag, my body's in the past
Way too tired, exhaustion's on the attack
To many sore elbows, too many red eyes
I gotta make it through the day and it'll be alright
Brace yourselves
For some turbulence now
Jet lag, my body's in the past
I wanna lie with closed eyes, flat on my back
All these time zone changes and all of these flights
I gotta keep fighting or I'll be up all night
Jet lag, my body's in the past
Way too tired, exhaustion's on the attack
To many sore elbows, too many red eyes
I gotta make it through the day and it'll be alright
