One More Try
Dee & Taylor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Broken are the places in my thoughts I used to see
And I have no recollection who you are
Should I be aware of any foul activity
Or any reason to suspect a mindless crime
The time behind the school was only meant to be a snack
And the flavor never lived up to the hype
If only rain had fallen and the sky had shouted out
Then I would have found the words to change your mind
When you turned up at The Railway in a tutu where were you?
The truth is I found out that you were there
I couldn’t even play the game with an instruction manual
As the rules I use are changing all the time
The search for happiness is always changing day to day
And the thirst for hunger dehydrates your soul
You can’t expect forgiveness in a day or even two
But you should know
I want you to believe
That I will try
I will try
I will try




I will try
Yes I will try

Overall Meaning

In "One More Try," the lyrics paint a picture of a troubled relationship where the singer is grappling with broken memories and a lack of recognition towards their partner. The opening lines suggest that the singer's mind is fragmented, making it difficult for them to remember the person they used to know. They question if there are any suspicious actions or a reason to suspect deceit from their partner. This suggests a sense of uncertainty and a desire to find clarity in the relationship.


The next verse speaks to a disappointing encounter or moment shared between the two. The reference to a snack implies that a fleeting moment was not as fulfilling or satisfying as expected. The mention of rain and a sky shouting out conveys a longing for a dramatic and obvious sign that could have prompted a change of heart or communication. The singer feels that if given the opportunity, they could have found the right words to influence their partner's decision.


A specific event is mentioned where the partner showed up at The Railway in a tutu. This unexpected choice of attire might symbolize a departure from their normal behavior or identity. The singer discovers this fact later, indicating a lack of communication between them. The mention of playing a game with an instruction manual highlights the singer's struggle to navigate the complexities of the relationship. The rules are constantly evolving, making it hard for them to understand and adapt.
