High Flight Society Album: High Flight Society Track: Get By
Get By Lyrics
I don't think that I know The reason for all of your pain I know that you're feeling low Will you ever be the same?
Not alone
We can still try down here We will get by down here Time will make things so much better
You're not responsible You're not the one that should change Don't let it drag you down You're not the one here to blame
Not alone...no
Just let it go
Not alone I'm not alone Not alone Not alone
Song Description: ""Get By" is probably the most emotional song on the record, which is fitting because it is also the final track. It was written after the sister of someone close to the band committed suicide. This person was left broken and feeling guilty, like she could have done something to prevent the death from ever happening. The lyrics to the song are meant to be a comfort, to tell her that she is not to blame. Unfortunately, death is a part of life that everyone must eventually face. While there is definitely a period of mourning that has to occur, with time and the Grace of God, we can all find the strength to move on, to get by. While this might seem like quite a downer to end the album with, the song actually ends on a positive note, telling anyone who listens that even though they have suffered loss, they are not alone." - High Flight Society
