At first glance, "One Drink" seems like a classic “heartbroken, waiting-by-the-phone” song. However, once the chorus hits, the song becomes a “get over your ex” anthem. The lyrics reflect the internal struggle of wanting to be over someone and wanting to just go out and have a good time, but also how the feeling of heartbreak can simply be too distracting.
Guitarist Jason Grandell, adds, "The music video...well, it’s just crazy. It’s not really supposed to make a lot of sense. We wanted to avoid doing the obvious, “let's show a dude sitting at a bar and have him drink a lot” kind of thing. Instead, we thought it would be cool to have a video that almost makes the viewer feel kinda drunk when you watch it. It’s dizzying and confusing...and you really have to watch it a few times to really notice everything. The director, Sam Link, is amazing at what he does. He compiled a list of all these cool, weird concepts that we could try, and we pretty much ended up using all of them."
