Jet Lag (ěě°¨ě ě) Lyric Analysis âď¸
Helllooo fellow Chanbaekists! I finally decided to make an analysis. Sechan dropped their album (Stream 1 Billion Views) and Jet Lag just screams Chanbaek, so I had to make my first analysis about this song. I hope you all enjoy it and let me know what you think. Also, this is all personal opinion and what I found and thought connected.
Yesterday, LA was 4 oâclock
Now London is 3 oâclock
Itâs a Friday in the hotel
Iâm about to go to Paris right now
*This is the most glaringly obvious lyrics in the whole song. Chanyeol was going to Paris on 190301 and Baekhyun was coming from LA back to Seoul. Itâs a Friday in the hotel, this lyric is so important too because the day (190301) is on a Friday.Â

Walking on the runway
Iâll be standing on stage in the day
*Chanyeol went to the Tommy Hilfiger SS19 Paris show on 190302 and he was âon stage.â I think he wrote, Iâll be standing on stage in the day because for him itâs his stage even though itâs not a concert, itâs still part of what he does. The SS19 show was a fashion show, Walking on the runway.

I think Iâll go to the studio tomorrow
*Chanyeol was back in Seoul on the 4th which was the next day. I think he was very busy these past days and he had to go to the studio right after he got off the plane (Iâm assuming it was for Studio NNG which we got later in the year in October).Â

Iâm going crazy, I need you right now
Itâs raining and snowing too
The dayâs summer and the dayâs winter
Everyday I feel like Iâm up in the clouds
*He always mention, âskyâ or some variation of it, Hello angel You are like a painting, when I look to the sky I can only see (Heaven), when he really misses Baekhyun or is trying to explain the love he feels for him.Â
Iâm barely hanging in there without you
Without you itâs always winter
Howâs the weather in Seoul?
Howâs your day? Iâll go back soon
Iâll hug you tight
You can rest comfortably in my arms
After washing up, I lie down and itâs 3 oâclock
You probably know this feeling
*After washing up, I lie down and itâs 3 oâclock, this shows how fast their days go by without them even noticing.
While staring at your photo blankly
1 hour passed by again
*These lyrics represent the loss of time, because he misses Baekhyun so much that heâs just staring at his photo. I feel like this could also show the time diffference they have between each other. How sometimes, all he can do is stare at his phone looking at Baekhyuns picture.Â
If it was Seoul, I would be in a taxi
Speeding to your front door
I want to go there, I really want to hug you
Why does 10 minutes always pass so slowly in this neighborhood?
The next morning comes again
Even if weâre apart, Iâm always in this spot
Everyday I feel like Iâm up in the clouds
*I really love this lyric, Even if weâre apart, Iâm always in this spot, it just shows that even if theyâre not beside each other, he still feels that love for him and that he feels, like Iâm up in the clouds.Â
Iâm barely hanging in there without you
My heart is always beside you
Howâs the weather in Seoul?
Howâs your day? Iâll go back soon
Iâll hug you tight
*I feel like this part being repeated represents text/phone conversations they have. Asking how each otherâs days have been and also having the lyrics repeated several times shows how much theyâre apart and how much they miss each other. Itâs a constant thing they say to each other (hence the repetition).Â
You can rest comfortably in my arms
Howâs the weather in Seoul?
Howâs your day? Iâll go back soon
Iâll hug you tight
You can rest comfortably in my arms
I hope you enjoyed reading my analysis and found it interesting. I had a lot of fun looking for everything and connecting it all. Thanks for reading!  Â
