“I’ll get by” is a song of Avi Kaplan’s first solo album with the same name.
The whole theme of the song is about his dark feelings, dealing with anxiety and not finding himself, but with an optimistic view about the future.
[Verse 1]
Early in the morning
I feel stones upon my chest
That I carry to the evening
'Til I lay back down to rest
[Chorus]
But I, I, I'll get by
I, I, I'll get by
[Verse 2]
I'm tired and growing weary
Of these clouds that follow me
Swallowed by the shadows
When it's sunshine that I need
[Chorus]
But I, I, I'll get by
I, I, I'll get by
[Verse 3]
I've been feeling hollow
Yeah, my soul just can't be found
So fill me with the feeling
That this all will turn around
[Bridge]
Take all my cares away
Lighten my load
Trust it'll be okay
But 'til then I'll go
Onward down the road
Carried by the hope
[Chorus]
That I, I, I'll get by
I, I, I'll get by
Yeah, I, I, I'll get by
I, I, I'll get by
