Using present perfect
Hi everybody ). Doing some english excercises I saw one sentence where the authors supposed to use present perfect. I just want to ask native eglish speakers how they'd write it.
Sentences from exercise: The bad news is that I have split up with Sebastian. He has been travelling so much recently that we have not managed to see each other much and I have met someone else.
Thanks!

The song of Lana Del Rey - High by the beach
Hi, everybody. Today I have listened to the song of Lana Del Rey "High by the beach". It's really nice ). Some phrases from the song puzzled me/ Could you help me to figure out some points in the chorus of the song:
Chorus:
All I wanna do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach, get high
All I wanna do is get by by the beach
Get by baby, baby, bye, bye
The truth is I never
Bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me
Cause I know that
All I wanted to do is get high by the beach
Get high baby, baby, bye, bye
The main idea is clear for me. I'd like to understand the sense of "get by" here. In some translations into russian it;s like "come to". Is it so? The second question is related to using "would" in "when "you would pay tribute ..". I can't understand what she uses it for?
