Freckle And Burn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've realized we all care about things
That don't really matter
We're just told it does
And now we're all trying
To keep our heads above the water
But what if we don't wanna?
Don't let your head stop your heart from moving
If there's someone you wanna talk to, talk to 'em
Who knows who we'd be if we just
Live more and love more
We all just need to live more and love more
When we're not here anymore
It all comes down
To who we were and what we stood for
Not what we had and not where we lived
So when we're told it does
Maybe then we'll see
We don't just have to keep our heads above the water
Not if we don't wanna
If there's something you wanna do, just do it
Don't let your head stop your heart from moving
If there's someone you wanna talk to, talk to 'em
Who knows who we'd be if we just
Live more and love more
We all just need to live more and love more
So hug your kids, tell them you love them
Have some heart but make sure it's open
Play by risk 'cause time gets stolen
Maybe speak less and listen more
'Cause life's too short
You only have one
It might sound cliche
But your life can start when you choose it to
When you choose it to
'Cause if there's something you wanna do, just do it
Don't let your head stop your heart from moving
If there's someone you wanna talk to, talk to 'em
Who knows who we'd be if we just
Live more and love more
Who knows who we'd be if we just
Live more and love more
Who knows who we'd be if we just
Live more and love more
Who knows who we'd be if we just
Live more and love more
The lyrics of Freckle And Burn's song "More" convey a message about the importance of living life to the fullest and prioritizing love and meaningful connections.
In the first verse, the lyrics highlight the realization that as people grow older, they come to realize that many things they care about do not truly matter in the grand scheme of things. Society dictates what is important, but the question arises: what if we don't want to conform? The lyrics suggest that we should not let societal expectations hold us back.
The chorus reinforces this idea, urging listeners to pursue their desires and not let their rational thoughts hinder their emotional impulses. It emphasizes the importance of taking action and embracing connections with others. By living more and loving more, we can discover who we truly are and what truly matters to us.
The second verse expands on the notion that at the end of our lives, it is not material possessions or where we lived that define us. Instead, it is the values and principles we uphold. It encourages listeners to question societal norms and see that perhaps keeping our heads above water is not obligatory if we are not interested in doing so.
The bridge offers some practical advice for a more fulfilling life, such as cherishing and expressing love to our loved ones, being open-hearted, taking risks, and practicing active listening. It emphasizes that life is short and that we should not hesitate to start living the life we truly want.
The final repetition of the chorus serves as a reminder that by living more and loving more, we can shape our lives into something meaningful and unexpected. It encourages listeners to embrace a life driven by their passions and relationships, rather than being constrained by societal expectations.

Who knows who we'd be if we just
Nobody knows the potential person we could become if we simply
Live more and love more
Embrace life to a greater extent and express more love
