One More
Sy & Unknown / Dougal & Gammer / Brisk & Ham Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You don't know where to hide
You think you're on your own
While the storm's raging outside
You don't know who to pray to at night
'Cause you don't know why karma's never on your side
Nothing is as it seems
When the last star in the sky has finally disappeared
Reached up one more time and you'll see me there
When everything is lost for you
Reach out for me 'cause I'll be there to comfort you
Morning's not the answer to the darkness of your mind
You keep beating yourself up just to say "Yes, I'm fine"
We're on a different plane and I'm trying to lift you up
But my efforts are in vain and you're starting to give up
Take the time to stop and think
As we go through this once more
When the last star in the sky has finally disappeared
Reached up one more time and you'll see me there
When everything is lost for you
Reach out for me 'cause I'll be there to comfort you
Tell me the story
Of the one I used to know
As the waves come crashing down
You've got something to show
I know
When the last star in the sky has finally disappeared
Reached up one more time and you'll see me there
And everything's not lost for you
Reach up for me and I'll be there to comfort you
When the last hope in your life has finally disappeared
Reached up one more time before you crash into tears
And everything's not lost for you
Reach up for me and I'll be there to comfort you
The lyrics to "One More" convey a message of support, comfort, and resilience. The song speaks to someone who feels lost, alone, and uncertain about their circumstances. The opening lines suggest a sense of desperation and confusion, as the person doesn't know where to look or hide and feels isolated during a storm. They question who to pray to at night and wonder why karma always seems to be against them.
The chorus emphasizes the importance of seeking out genuine connections and not giving up hope. It suggests that when everything seems lost, the person should reach out for support, as there will always be someone there to comfort them. The reference to the last star in the sky disappearing signifies a moment of despair, but it is followed by the reassurance that reaching out one more time will reveal the presence of someone who cares.
The second verse introduces the idea that the mornings may not provide a solution to the darkness in one's mind, and the person may be trapped in a cycle of self-criticism to convince others that they are fine. The singer acknowledges their efforts to lift the person up, but admits that it might be challenging and that the person may be on the verge of giving up. However, the lyrics encourage the person to pause, reflect, and consider the situation anew, implying that this might be a recurring pattern that they can overcome.
The bridge adds a layer of mystery and curiosity as the singer asks the person to tell the story of the person they used to know. It implies that despite the struggles and the crashing waves, the person still holds something valuable within them. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the persistence and availability of comfort, support, and hope.
Overall, "One More" is a hopeful and uplifting song that encourages individuals to reach out for help and reminds them that they are not alone in their struggles. It highlights the need to question one's circumstances and thought patterns, and to seek genuine connections for support and comfort.

Morning's not the answer to the darkness of your mind
The beginning of a new day cannot alleviate the heaviness within your thoughts and emotions
You keep beating yourself up just to say 'Yes, I'm fine'
You constantly criticize yourself to maintain a facade of well-being
We're on a different plane and I'm trying to lift you up
We exist in separate emotional realms, and I am attempting to uplift you

However, my endeavors to help are ineffective, and you are losing hope
Take the time to stop and think
Pause and reflect upon your situation
As we go through this once more
As we experience these challenges again
Tell me the story
Recount the tale
Of the one I used to know
About the person I was familiar with
As the waves come crashing down
Amidst the turbulent waves of life
You've got something to show
You possess something worth revealing
I know
I understand and acknowledge
When the last star in the sky has finally disappeared
When all sources of light and hope appear extinguished
Reached up one more time and you'll see me there
Extend your reach once again, and you will find me by your side
And everything's not lost for you
There is still hope and potential for you
Reach up for me and I'll be there to comfort you
Reach out to me, and I will provide solace and support
When the last hope in your life has finally disappeared
When all optimism and expectation have faded away
Reached up one more time before you crash into tears
Extend your reach once more before succumbing to despair
And everything's not lost for you
There is still potential for redemption and recovery
Reach up for me and I'll be there to comfort you
Extend your hand to me, and I will provide consolation and support
