Interpretation
The song 'Just More' by
Wonderwall is about self-determination, self-love, and the desire for acceptance. The lyrics urge the listener to look beyond the surface and recognize and love the singer's true self, as indicated by the lines 'Look beyond my face and love me, I'm not the good girl you should know!' She emphasizes repeatedly 'I'm just more', which suggests that she is more than what meets the eye or what is expected of her. She is more than a 'good' girl role that she seemingly has to play.
The words 'It's too late to look beyond! It's too late to darn my socks! I left my shoes left you behind!' indicate that she has freed herself from old expectations and attachments and is forging her own path, even if it means walking barefoot.
With the words 'There's another word for love! There's another word of course!' she expresses that love can take many forms and is not limited to conventional romantic love. It can also mean loving oneself and accepting oneself as is.
Overall, 'Just More' is a call for self-love and acceptance and an encouragement to break free from societal expectations and follow one's own path.
