about

This song was inspired by the novel "Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury, particularly this quote:

“We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over; so in a series of kindnesses there is at last one which makes the heart run over.”

lyrics

One more chance, to make you see
That there’s another way to be.
A curious reality.
A new reality.

Well, I could see right through your Monday game.
Always knew somehow you weren't the same.

One more walk, out on the streets,
How odd you shared a talk with me.
You said we changed our history.
We changed our history.

You said we put out fires in the night
Instead of doing what was right.

(One More Drop)
One more drop makes the heart run over.
(One More Drop)
One more drop, my defenses fall.
(Drop by Drop)
Drop by drop, you won me over.
You fill me up, break through my firewall.

One more look, a drawn out face,
And then I draw you closer still.
I am a mirror for your will
A mirror for your will.

You want a happy place, but where is that,
If not in the place you're at?

One more word, I try to hold,
forever, verses in my hand.
I am the sieve and the sand.
The sieve and the sand.

They can shape the truth and mold the clay.
But my own thoughts they'll never burn away.

(One More Drop)
One more drop makes the heart run over.
(One More Drop)
One more drop, my defenses fall.
(Drop by Drop)
Drop by drop, you won me over.
You fill me up, break through my firewall.
You filled me up.
It just took one more drop.
