Background
He told Billboard that when he was in his 20s, he "simultaneously thought that I was going to live forever and I wasn't going to make it past 25".
"One Less Day" was prompted by the realization that, at 47, he "was already too old to die young".{{cite web|url=https://www.songfacts.com/facts/rob-thomas/one-less-day-dying-young|title=One Less Day (Dying Young) by Rob Thomas - Songfacts|website=Songfacts|accessdate=August 9, 2020}}
