Love Me More

By Sam Smith

1,608 views Jul 10, 2026 updated Verified editorial review

Sam Smith's 'Love Me More' is a pop song about self-acceptance and learning to love oneself after struggling with self-hatred and insecurity. The lyrics describe a journey from crying and blaming external factors to sitting with sorrow and eventually finding freedom. While the song touches on themes of healing and personal growth, it does not reference God, Jesus, Scripture, or any Christian doctrine. The focus is entirely on self-love and inner strength, not on faith or a relationship with God.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Have you ever felt like being somebody else

Feeling like the mirror isn?t good for your health

Every day I?m trying not to hate myself

But lately it?s not hurting like it did before

Maybe I am learning how to love me more


It used to burn

Every insult, every word

But it helped me learn 

Self worth I had to earn

So I tried every night

To sit with sorrow

And eventually it set me free


Have you ever felt like being somebody else

Feeling like the mirror isn?t good for your health

Every day I?m trying not to hate myself

But lately it?s not hurting like it did before

Maybe I am learning how to love me more


Just a little bit

Love me more

Just a little bit

Love me more

Oh no

Love me more

Just a little bit

Love me more


I used to cry myself to sleep at night

I?d blame the sky when the mess was in my mind

I couldn?t see, I couldn?t breathe

So I sat with sorrow

And eventually it set me free


Have you ever felt like being somebody else

Feeling like the mirror isn?t good for your health

Every day I?m trying not to hate myself

But lately it?s not hurting like it did before

Maybe I am learning how to love me more


Just a little bit

Love me more

Just a little bit

Love me more

Oh I?m gonna try to

Love me more

With a little bit of love

Love me more


Love me more x4


Oh, gonna love me more x
