Song Meaning of “We Can Not Fly so High” by Dark Princess
This dark and mysterious song is a cry for help and hope in a world that has gone awry. Dark Princess speaks of her fear and despair in a broken world, hopelessly searching for peace. She is struggling to accept that she won’t be able to soar through the sky, as people continue to hurt and be hurt by each other.
The chorus proclaims that we can try as hard as we want, but with the state of the world, it is hard to believe that good will win. She acknowledges that some people are free to fly high while others are dragged down and her soul feels chained.
The song speaks of feelings of helplessness and despair, amplified by the ominous guitar riffs. Dark Princess is recognizing the trauma and difficulties created by her broken world, even when we can not fly so high. In the midst of this darkness we must still believe in what could be and in the hope that one day, we will all be able to fly.
