I got a carry-on bag and a heart full of dreams
Stuffed it with secrets bursting at the seams
A pair of old sneakers and a map with no names
The zipper fights back
The past won’t unpack
Carry on carry on
With my carry-on bag
Through the skies through the storm
With all the things I never had
Carry on carry on
Till the weight feels less bad
There's a postcard crumpled in the side pocket
A key to nowhere and a plastic locket
The handle’s frayed but I grip it tight
Every step I take
The strap might break
Carry on carry on
With my carry-on bag
Through the skies through the storm
With all the things I never had
Carry on carry on
Till the weight feels less bad
