With passionate music, intense vocals and songs that parallel the day-to-day issues that we all face, One Less Reason touches people in a way that fosters a fierce loyalty and connection between band and fan that is rare in music today. OLR is Cris Brown (vocals), Ryan Giles (guitar), Brad Butler (guitar), Terry Brown (bass), and Jeff Moore (drums), but it is also much bigger than any of the individual members. OLR is truly a family. The band is as devoted to their fans as their fans are to the band. With over 100,000 Myspace friends, OLR has become an internet phenomenon that process that it is possible to draw a fan from virtually every demographic. With a recent string of radio successes and sold out shows throughout the southeast and Midwest, One Less Reason is writing a story that is increasingly impossible to ignore.
One Less Reason continues to dominate the charts at alternative addition with their latest single “Seasons” which held the number one spot for a month and remained on the chart for 15 weeks. More recently, “Seasons” stirred a buzz on a national level at commercial rock radio stations around the country. Although radio spins often elude the unsigned, this act has managed to grab rotation on 102.3 in Jackson, TN. Z95 in Poplar Bluff, MO. Z98.5 Tupelo, MS and Nashville’s favorite 102.9 The Buzz to get started…
With their explosive live performance, they have captured the attention of the media and have become crowd favorites at showcases and music festivals such as FMF and Memphis in May 2010. Their consistent draw has earned them the honor of opening for acts like Shinedown, Godsmack, Hinder, Taking Back Sunday, Aaron Lewis, OneRepublic, Theory of A Deadman, and 10 Years.
In addition to heavy touring, One Less Reason’s recognition landed a licensing agreement with National Retail Powerhouse, “Buckle,” a single, “A Day to Be Alone,” featured in the file “Hero Wanted” with Cuba Gooding Jr and Ray Liotta.
Criss Brown now has a side project called "Jassepy Moses and The Vagytarians"

One Less Reason Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you just don't know it
And maybe, maybe you've been hurt
And you're scared to show it
But sometimes
Does your pain become too much for you to bear?
And sometimes
And I said maybe, maybe you won't stay
And it doesn't matter
'Cause lately, lately I have changed
And I feel much better
But sometimes
Does your pain become too much for you to bear?
And sometimes
Do you run away?
You're gonna take this broken heart that he gave you
And follow the light of the stars you love
When every day is all the same
You made me wonder why…
Did you try if you knew better?
I wished on a star and it landed on you
I lie because I'm not better
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I said baby, is there something you need to say
'Cause your heart says nothing
And maybe, maybe I'm to blame
And this has all been over
But sometimes
Does your pain become too much for you to bear?
And sometimes
Do you run away?
You're gonna take this broken heart that he gave you
And follow the light of the stars you love
When every day is all the same
You made me wonder why…
Did you try if you knew better?
I wished on a star and it landed on you
I lie because I'm not better
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I said baby, is there something you need to say?
'Cause your heart says nothing
And maybe, but I don't think that will change
Why did we try if you knew better?
I wished on a star and it landed on you
I lie because I'm not better
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
Did we try if you knew better
I wished on a star and it landed on you
I lie because I'm not better
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not...
The lyrics to "Time" by One Less Reason portray a complex emotional struggle between two individuals in a relationship. The song seems to revolve around themes of self-doubt, pain, and the difficulty of expressing emotions. The opening lines suggest that the person addressed in the song may have experienced some form of salvation or healing, but they are unaware of it. At the same time, they may feel hurt or wounded but are hesitant to reveal their pain. This could imply that they are afraid of being vulnerable or are unsure of how to communicate their emotions.
The chorus delves into the overwhelming nature of pain and the tendency to run away from it. It highlights the question of whether the pain becomes too much to bear, leading to the impulse to escape. The singer acknowledges that maybe the person they are addressing won't stay, but it doesn't matter to them because they have changed and are feeling better. This suggests a personal growth or healing process that may have taken place.
The later verses convey a sense of disappointment and betrayal. The singer describes the broken heart that the person carries due to someone else's actions and encourages them to find solace and guidance in the things they love, symbolized by the light of the stars. However, the singer also expresses their own feelings of dissatisfaction and envy. They acknowledge lying because they themselves are not better or happier, hinting at unresolved emotions and perhaps a sense of longing for the person they are singing to.
Overall, "Time" delves into the complexities of relationships, personal growth, and the struggle to express emotions. It portrays a mixture of hope, pain, and unresolved feelings, capturing the emotional journey of two individuals.

And baby, maybe you've been saved
And darling, perhaps you have been rescued
And you just don't know it
And you are simply unaware of it
And maybe, maybe you've been hurt
And possibly, you have suffered
And you're scared to show it
And you are afraid to reveal it
But sometimes
Yet occasionally
Does your pain become too much for you to bear?
Does your agony become overwhelming for you?
And sometimes
And at times
Do you run away?
Do you flee?
And I said maybe, maybe you won't stay
And I said perhaps, perhaps you won't remain
And it doesn't matter
And it is insignificant
'Cause lately, lately I have changed
Because recently, recently I have transformed
And I feel much better
And I feel far better
You're gonna take this broken heart that he gave you
You will take this shattered heart that he bestowed upon you
And follow the light of the stars you love
And pursue the guidance of the beloved stars
When every day is all the same
When each day appears identical
You made me wonder why…
You made me question why...
Did you try if you knew better?
Did you make an effort despite knowing better?
I wished on a star and it landed on you
I made a wish upon a star and it ended up being you
I lie because I'm not better
I deceive because I am not improved
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I am not joyful for you, I am not joyful for you
And I said baby, is there something you need to say
And I said darling, is there something you want to express
'Cause your heart says nothing
Because your heart remains silent
And maybe, maybe I'm to blame
And maybe, maybe I am at fault
And this has all been over
And this has all come to an end
Why did we try if you knew better?
Why did we make an effort when you knew better?
And maybe, but I don't think that will change
And maybe, but I don't believe that will alter
Did we try if you knew better
Did we make an effort when you knew better
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I am not joyful for you, I am not joyful for you
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I am not joyful for you, I am not joyful for you
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not happy for you
And I am not joyful for you, I am not joyful for you
And I'm not happy for you, I'm not...
And I am not joyful for you, I am not...
