High On You
Flick Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sunshine slipping through your fingers
I have not seen nothing
I don't like this feeling
I think I better fly
I, I get by on you
I get by on you
I get high on you
Do you find it hard to face it
Or do you just erase it
Tell me how it feels now
What do you got to say

I, I get by on you
I get by on you
I get high on you

I, I get by on you
I get by on you
I get high on you

I, I get by on you




I get by on you
I get high on you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Flick's song High On You express the idea that the singer is completely dependent on the person they are addressing. The opening lines describe how the sunshine is slipping through their fingers, indicating a feeling of loss or sadness. The following lines reinforce this, as the singer admits they haven't seen anything and don't like the way they are feeling. It seems as though the person they are addressing is their only source of happiness or comfort, as they say "I get by on you, I get high on you."


The second verse poses a question to the person they are addressing, asking if they find it difficult to face their emotions or if they just ignore them. The singer then asks how they feel, and what they have to say. This could be interpreted as the singer trying to understand their own emotions by gaining insight from the person they are addressing. The rest of the song repeats the same idea, that the singer is completely dependent on this other person for their happiness, saying "I get high on you."


The overall mood of the song is both melancholy and hopeful. The melody is somewhat melancholic, with a slower tempo and a haunting piano line. However, the lyrics express a sense of hope that the singer finds comfort and happiness in this other person. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the idea that the person they are addressing is central to their emotional well-being.
