Novo Amor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
we’re your ornery teeth,
we’re your author,
we’re your quarterly leave.
They’re your daughters,
they're your artery thieves,
prima donna,
I will save your blood for years.
I will brave your flood to breathe.
Here often,
heard you bought a reprieve
up in Auckland,
we were trading retreats.
In your outdoors,
lay your throne and your wreath
in your hung jaw,
were you caught on your feet?
I will let the blood from the corners of your eyes,
I’ll vignette the flood from the borders of the tide.
You and I.
They're your daughters,
they're your artery thieves,
they’re your daughters,
a decade to conceive.
Let your blood,
silvery.
The lyrics in Novo Amor and Ed Tullett's song Silvery have a somber and poetic tone. It seems to depict a narrative of the deep connection between two individuals, one of whom is experiencing significant pain and hardship. The refrain, "We're your daughter, we're your ornery teeth, we're your author, we're your quarterly leave" initially seems abstract, but may be interpreted as the singer (or multiple speakers) representing different aspects of the same person, such as their familial or creative sides. The verses that follow imply that this person is suffering from a medical condition ("artery thieves"), and perhaps in a vulnerable position, as the singer offers to "save [their] blood for years" and "brave [their] flood to breathe."
The song's title, "Silvery," suggests a sense of purity and shine, but the lyrics add a more melancholy layer to this. The singer says they will "let the blood from the corners of your eyes" and "vignette the flood from the borders of the tide," which could represent physical or emotional pain. The second half of the song adds more complexity to the narrative, introducing more characters and locations. The phrase "heard you bought a reprieve up in Auckland, we were trading retreats" could suggest that the person in pain has sought out some form of treatment or escape. The last line, "Let your blood, silvery," is an intriguing call to action that could be interpreted in many ways – as a plea for the person to stay alive, a reminder of their humanity, or a celebration of their resilience.

All of Novo Amor's songs are hauntingly beautiful and melancholic all the aesthetic words can't suffice.
