Novo Amor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All her flaws were gone
Covered in everything
Coveted all at once
Everything covering
Everything all at once
But I would fake
I would hate
But I would fake
I would hate
I would break every inch of my love
Every inch of my love
Halt her collarbone
All her haunts were home
Covered in everything
Coveted all at once
Everything covering
Everything all at once
And I saw the peaks on my own
That you probably meant for us
And I tore the fear from my bones
That you probably never lost
And I saw the peaks on my own
That you probably meant for us
And I tore the fear from my bones
That you probably never lost
But I would fake
I would hate
I would break every inch of my love
But I would fake
I would hate
I would break every inch of my love
But I would fake
I would hate
I would break every inch of my love
Every inch of my love
The lyrics to Novo Amor's "Alps" are open to interpretation, but they seem to deal with the pain that can come with love and the desire to protect oneself from that pain. The opening lines suggest that the singer is finding fault with someone and is seeking to distance themselves from that person's flaws. This is followed by a repeated refrain about faking, hating, and breaking every inch of the singer's love, which could suggest that they are struggling to maintain emotional vulnerability in the face of past hurts.
The second verse adds more layers to the song's meaning. The singer references a collarbone, which could symbolize vulnerability or fragility, and suggests that this person's "haunts," or emotional baggage, is something they have come to wear comfortably. The chorus returns with more statements about faking, hating, and breaking love, but the final lines of the song provide some hope. The singer describes seeing the "peaks" on their own, suggesting that they have found their own strength and resilience. They have also "tore[n] the fear from [their] bones," suggesting that they have faced their own fears and come out stronger for it.
Overall, "Alps" is a beautiful and haunting song that explores the complexities of love and the pain that can come with it. The repeated refrain about faking, hating, and breaking love suggests that the singer is struggling to maintain emotional vulnerability, but the final lines of the song offer a glimmer of hope that they have found their own strength and resilience.

Fault her further on
Continuously point out her flaws
All her flaws were gone
Despite her flaws, she was perfect
Covered in everything
She was surrounded by everything she needed
Coveted all at once
Everyone wanted her all at the same time
Everything covering
Everything she had was protecting her
Everything all at once
She had everything she needed all at once
But I would fake
I would pretend
I would hate
I would have negative feelings towards her
I would break every inch of my love
I would destroy my feelings of love for her
Halt her collarbone
Stop her in her tracks
All her haunts were home
All the places she was afraid of were familiar to her
And I saw the peaks on my own
I discovered new heights alone
That you probably meant for us
The mountains we were supposed to climb together, but didn't
And I tore the fear from my bones
I conquered my fears without her help
That you probably never lost
She still had fear, but I overcame mine
But I would fake
I would pretend
I would hate
I would have negative feelings towards her
I would break every inch of my love
I would destroy my feelings of love for her
Every inch of my love
Every aspect of my love for her

I shared this song with my best friend on a fishing bridge at midnight.
His Jeep didn’t have a radio, so we shared headphones.
I was in love with him and didn’t know he was in love with me.
That was the beginning of the best 4 months of my life. We were together. So in love. So full of life.
We can’t be together though.
We said goodbye in a parking lot in the beginning of July. That was 2 years ago.
I still think about him every day. I know he still loves me too.
I hope our paths cross again in this life.
I miss you, my Jake.
