Set It Right
Eternal Love and Loss: Set It Right by How to Dress Well
Lyrics
I won't save my pride
I am not willing to compromise my dignity.
I won't strain my will
I won't exert my determination forcefully.
From the devil's fire, light will shine down still
In challenging situations, goodness will prevail.
You know that you wanted everything to last forever, didn't you? You wanted the
Desire for lasting permanence, hoping for positive change.
World to come and make it better
Wishing for the world to bring improvement.
All that you could say was you wanted to last a while
Expressing a desire for enduring happiness.
And even when life was cold you never would've asked for life to stop
Even in difficult times, never wishing for life to end.
And now these songs all stand down in your place
The singer's songs now memorialize the listener.
And I swear I still see your soul in your baby's face
The singer perceives the departed person's essence in their child.
And I swear to god it's no coincidence that as
Believing that the timing of singing is linked to a significant event.
I sing this song today it's been one year since
Noting the duration since a particular event, likely a loss.
And I miss you
Expressing grief and longing for the departed person.
Ryan, Dan, Sam, Jamie, Mama, Dad, Andrew, Don, Grandma, Francey, Dani,
Naming individuals, possibly related to the departed person.
Faith, Robbie, Will, Jeanne, Nicky
-I won't save my pride
Reiterating the refusal to compromise one's dignity.
I won't strain my will
Reaffirming the commitment to not forcefully exert determination.
From the devil's fire, light will shine down still
Reassurance that goodness will prevail in challenging situations.
No I won't waste my life
Commitment to living without wasting one's life.
I'm not worried to take myself as far as life wills
Embracing life's journey without fear of its challenges.
For us, it's just right, as far as love goes
Expressing contentment with the current state of love.
It's just one step at a time J
Approaching love with patience and taking it one step at a time.
That's not to say that I'm giving up on you
Assuring commitment and not giving up on someone.
And I never meant to imply that my love isn't true
Clarifying that the singer's love is genuine.
And I pray that you will always love me too
Expressing a hope for reciprocal and enduring love.
Because in being true to you I'm true to me too
Stating that being true to the loved one is being true to oneself.
