I drag my suitcase down the hall, another day, another ball
Straight outta bed and off I go, my very favorite travel show
I pop the bag, it's full of stuff, I never quite unload enough
But I'll make room, I'll get a grip, I'm packing for my ego trip

I'm packing for my ego trip
I've got a lifetime membership
I'm well rehearsed and well-equipped
I'm packing for my ego trip

I'll start with pride and self-esteem, eternal youth and fading genes
I always squeeze some extra socks right underneath my writer's blocks
My shaving kit is six feel tall, it holds the mirror on the wall
Reflecting me, myself and I, my three most favorite passers-by

I'm packing for my ego trip
I've got a lifetime membership
I'm well rehearsed and well-equipped
I'm packing for my ego trip

Today, I'll start by ending world hunger
Take a break for lunch and win Olympic Gold
Just before my nap at three, I'll sell a coupla million CDs
My wing at the Smithsonian is something to behold

Sometimes I walk, sometimes I drive, sometimes I crawl, sometimes I fly
My travel agent loves me 'cause I'm tripping every minute
And when I'm not in my right mind, my left one's overflowing
Then I know I've gone way past my psyche's legal baggage limit

I'm packing for my ego trip
I've got a lifetime membership
I'm well rehearsed and well-equipped
I'm packing for my ego trip

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
