Novo Amor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Steer it, 'cause I forget the dots now
Was it all any more faded after all?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Are you sure, did you call, or did we ever really talk?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't
Dear, I wouldn't bet your heart down
Clear, but I couldn't get my head around
Was it all any more faded after all?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Are you sure, did you call, or did we ever really talk?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I've been awake in every state line
Dyin' to make it last us a lifetime
Tryin' to shake that it's all on an incline
Find me a way, I'll be yours in a landslide
The lyrics of Novo Amor's song, State Lines, are open to personal interpretation, but the theme of the song appears to be about the uncertainty and fragility of a relationship. The opening lines suggest the need for the singer to control his thoughts and steer them in a certain direction because he forgets the essential points. This could be a reference to communication issues and the need for clarity and focus in a relationship.
The repeated lines, "Was it all any more faded after all?" and "Are you sure, did you call, or did we ever really talk?" highlight the singer's confusion and uncertainty about the state of his relationship. He is not sure if the relationship has lost its luster or if there was ever a solid foundation of communication to begin with.
The chorus of "I've been awake in every state line, dyin' to make it last us a lifetime, tryin' to shake that it's all on an incline, find me a way, I'll be yours in a landslide" could allude to the singer's efforts to keep the relationship going despite the obstacles they face. The sense of urgency to find a way to make the relationship work and his willingness to commit fully to it indicates how much the relationship means to him.
Overall, the song is a poignant reflection on the complexities and uncertainties of romantic relationships and the struggle to hold on to love in the face of obstacles.
