This One
Sister 7 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He said, "it felt just like the end of the world
To watch her walk away"
And anyone could've seen there was nothing he
Could've done just to make her stay
Smoking the remains of last night's cigarette
Standing in his worn-out shoes
For a minute I was in paris, october of '30
Feelin' someone else's blues

If I could make it through this one
There's something 'round the corner
It's got to get better than this

I tell myself if I make it through
This time, I'll be okay
But it gets harder to listen to yourself
When you've heard everything you have to say
I can take a punch as good as anyone
But this one's gonna leave a bruise
Sometimes I wish I was anywhere but here
Feelin' someone else's blues

At night we lay inside each other's arms
A little shelter before we call it a day
I still might be lost and confused
And desperate enough to pray
Thinking how he let her go
I know I still got plenty left to lose




Sometimes I can still find a little comfort
In someone else's blues

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sister 7's song "This One" speak to the experience of heartbreak and the struggles that come with trying to move forward. The first verse describes a man who is devastated by the end of a relationship and feels powerless to prevent his partner from leaving him. As he stands alone, smoking a cigarette and feeling the weight of his emotions, the singer reflects that he can relate to his pain, even imagining himself transported to another time and place where someone else might be feeling the same way.


The chorus expresses a sense of optimism in spite of the difficulty of the current situation. The singer tells themselves that if they can make it through this one, whatever comes next will be better. However, in the second verse, the reality of the sustained struggle begins to set in. The singer acknowledges that it's hard to keep going when they feel like they've exhausted all their inner resources, and that pain can build up over time, causing lasting damage.


The final lines of the song offer a glimpse of hope - even in the darkest moments, there can still be a sense of connection to others who are experiencing similar struggles. The singer finds solace in knowing that they are not alone in their pain.
