Seth Anthony released a tear jerker yesterday called 'One More Time'. His sultry voice mixed with the heartfelt lyrics, go hand in hand. You don't hear a voice like Seth's every day, it holds such emotion and grabs the listeners heartstrings tight. Relating to Seth's songs isn't hard for those who have escaped a past of addiction, and pen to paper words of a regretful past, now clean.
'One more Time' is a song about loss. Frankly, if you listen it's about two different types of loss. One being the loss of a loved one and the second, losing yourself in depression or addiction.
Below is the video and lyrics to the song 'One More Time'
I throw it all away just for one more day
If I could just see you one more time
I drink the darkness unfolds
if I could just see you one more time
Five in the morning Im still drinkin hard liquor
staring at the sky damn how I miss ya
depressed as hell so I turn to entertaining
as I write this song the tears are falling on the paper
mama used to whoop my ass with a leather belt
daddy never gave a damn said you did it to yourself
he dropped me off at juvie and he asked me why I was crying
then he said it’s time to be a man don’t let nobody try ya
If I could turn back time, I would unwind the clock so
I could tell you how much I love you
I'm trying to make you proud but lately I've been falling
hard to face your fears when you're feeling like a savage
fuck this money and fame I'm done they can have it
this song is overdue I'm sorry my minds been crazy
this songs for everyone who lost someone and can't face it
I throw it all away just for one more day
If I could just see you one more time
I drink the darkness unfolds
if I could just see you one more time
Last thing I told him was you a shitty father
I sent him to voicemail but he still kept calling
sitting in the hotel sniffing white lines
then 3 hours later he died he flatlined and it killed me!
My mind it went crazy couldn’t make the funeral
them pills they had me wasted you know what they say
it don’t kill you makes you stronger
but its hard to be a man growing up without a father
If I could turn back time, I would unwind
a single touch conversation just a hug
I couldn’t kill the pain so I started doing drugs what the fuck!
And mama I ain’t forget you since you been gone
a piece of me has been missin gotta drop another verse
just for you don’t know if heaven exists
but I hope it does for you
I throw it all away just for one more day
If I could just see you one more time
I drink the darkness unfolds
if I could just see you one more time
Mama worked hard to put the food up on the table
yes, sir no ma'am she was southern she wasn’t playin
never seen a woman work so hard to feed her children
she said life's what you make it and boy she wasn’t kiddin
hurt my heart bad she found out I was on them drugs
took me to rehab tears in her eyes get better son
mama raised me better so you know I'm feeling low
I swear I wanted to change but the addiction had control
If I could turn back time I would unwind all the times
that I let you down and hurt ya
I'm dying inside fuck! Mama I miss ya
last call we had you said I'm so proud son
ima do it for yall I know yall smiling down
I wanna apologize ahead of time for my mistakes
and just save me a seat up at them pearly gates.
I throw it all away just for one more day
If I could just see you one more time
I drink the darkness unfolds
if I could just see you one more time
