Baggage Claim

about

"Baggage Claim" is the first song from the "White " portion of "Growth " to be publicly released, while not being the first song on the album itself.

DEVELOPMENT
"Baggage Claim" is 4/4 101bpm in the key of F major. The song was written in a hotel room in Glendale, California during the first week of Dustin's emigration to Los Angeles from his homestate of Maine. It is designed to sound like 80's new wave music if it were released in the 21st century. The lyrics mention not being in a glass house which is internally mental as well as physical because in the hotel room, Dustin had not yet narrowed down where in Los Angeles he'd be moving to yet and was still looking and researching while staying in a Hotel Room, it also applied to the idea that even living in a house, he was still a vulnerable person with debts of excess baggage and unattended problems.

lyrics

I got a lot of baggage
because i'm always moving away
i like to bring it all with me
so i carry it every day
i got a lot baggage
wherever i may roam
i got a lot of good stuff
i just haven't found a home

(Chorus:)
as i stand here in this glass house
i forget it isn't real
man i could just build my own house
if i could change how i feel

i got a lot of baggage
i got a lot of dreams
there's a lot of love inside me
but to you that's not the way it seems
i got a lot of baggage
i lean on many an excuse
i gotta find a home to stay
maybe you'll see my use

(Chorus)

i got a lot of baggage
it came right off the plane
safe in the air, safe in his car
as my buddy zooms through lanes
i got a lot of baggage
on it's tags it has my name
i got a lot of baggage
maybe i'm ready to...

(Chorus)

I got a lot of baggage
i can't carry it all
by myself it's a big problem
but with you it must seem small
i got a lot of baggage
on it's tags it has my name
I got a lot of baggage
maybe I'm ready to claim
