THE STICKERS ON MY SUITCASE
v-FiA melancholic country-folk ballad featuring a prominent acoustic guitar and a soulful male vocal. The song is set in a 4/4 time signature at a moderate tempo of 78 BPM. The arrangement begins with a fingerpicked acoustic guitar melody, later joined by a subtle pedal steel guitar that adds atmospheric swells. The chord progression follows a standard I-IV-V pattern in the key of G major, with occasional minor vi chords to enhance the emotional weight. The male vocals are characterized by a gritty, baritone timbre with a slight vibrato and a conversational delivery. Production is clean and intimate, with a light plate reverb on the vocals and a close-mic technique on the acoustic guitar to capture the percussive nature of the strings. The structure follows a Verse-Chorus-Verse-Chorus-Bridge-Chorus-Outro format, building in intensity with the addition of a soft snare brush rhythm in the second half.

[Verse 1]
The stickers on my suitcase
Tell you where I've been
But they don't tell about my life
Or the ways that I have sinned
They don't tell you all the pain I've caused
Of the things that I have seen
The stickers on my suitcase
Just tell you where I've been
[Verse 2]
You can see I went to New York City
But you don't know I can't unsee
Watching those twin towers fall
On that motel TV
The sticker that says San Antone
Tells people I was there
But it doesn't mention Evan
Or the pain of our affair
[Chorus]
On my suitcase you'll see Woodstock
Where I first did a little smoke
And one sticker shows you Denver
Where I gave up all hope
Maria's love was another loss
When lust led me astray
There's a sticker on my suitcase
Reminds me that was Monday
[Bridge]
One sticker shows you Vietnam
Where I got the PTSD
And lots of stickers show you places
Where the rehab folks placed me
Another sticker on my case
Shows that I came here to Tucson
But it don't tell how long I've stayed here
Or which corner I stand on
[Chorus]
One sticker shows you Vietnam
Where I got the PTSD
And lots of stickers show you places
Where the rehab folks placed me
Another sticker on my case
Shows that I came here to Tucson
But it don't tell how long I've stayed here
Or which corner I stand on
[Outro]
On the stickers on my suitcase
There's stickers on my suitcase
Just tell you where I've been
