Nothing's New
Rio Romeo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanna heal, be hugged
It's just the two of us
Or that's what we swore
And if I've lost my charm
Apologies due, no harm
'Cause you've got ahold of my heart
So won't you please
Spare me indignity
And won't you please
Give me some decency
And won't you please
Call it if our time is through
'Cause I know that we
Fall apart when nothing's new, nothing's new
I want to be close to you
But I don't know what to do
'Cause if we are near to through
It may make it worse
And if I start to grieve
'Cause it feels you're 'bout to leave
Forgive me, I'm not as naive
I've been here before
So won't you please
Spare me indignity
And won't you please
Give me some decency
And won't you please
Call it if our time is through
'Cause I know that we
Fall apart when nothing's new, nothing's new
Nothing's new, nothing's new
Nothing's new, nothing's new
Nothing's new, nothing's new
Nothing's new, nothing's new
Nothing's new, nothing's new
Nothing's new, nothing's new, nothing's new
Please, spare me indignity
And won't you please
Give me some decency
And won't you please
Call it if our time is through
'Cause I know that we
Fall apart when nothing's new, nothing's new
In the song Nothing's New by Rio Romeo, the artist speaks about feeling the need to be loved, healed, and touched. The artist speaks about the importance of the relationship between the two people in the relationship as they've promised to be there only for each other, and that has caused them to face it alone. The artist talks about acknowledging if the spark in the relationship has gone away and calls for the partner to end it if they think it's time to move on. They want to be spared the indignity because they can already feel themselves falling apart because they're stuck with nothing new.
The song speaks about the fear that people often have in relationships, a fear of uncertainty because of the many times that they have been hurt before. The artist speaks to a partner who has their heart, but they fear that the relationship may be over because nothing in the relationship is new. The artist acknowledges that they may feel hurt if the relationship ends, but they want to be aware of what the other person wants so that they can move on.
The lyrics show the emotional struggle between two people in a relationship, both trying to hold on to each other despite the fear and uncertainty in their hearts. The artist wants to be given basic human decency and respect when ending the relationship. The lyrics of Nothing's New are an emotional blend of doubt, love, hope, and desperation that most people can relate to.

@aria5981
wow. that was super powerful. it hits harder because relationships often hit a bump because we're just so tired of eachother, but isn't that horrible? to be tired to love?
also, interesting color choice! orange can mean many things, but to me in this video, it symbolizes getting older, like rust on a car thats been sitting for a long while. once it was loved and cherished, but then it was left to rot.
i also LOVE 2:21 and the repetition of "nothings new". i definitely felt this way when i was having a major depressive episode where everyday seems the same and you tire of waking up and going to sleep - but in the context of the song, it could be that both people in the relationship are not giving enough to sustain it, and bridges are burned.
this is a beautiful song, and is quickly becoming my favorite right next to "bet" <3
love you rio!

Letra:
Nothing's New
Rio Romeo
Eu quero ser tocado
Ser amado
Eu quero melhorar
Ser abraçado
Somos só nós dois
Ou isso é o que juramos
E se eu perdi meu charme
Lhe dou minhas desculpas devidas, sem brigas
Porque você pegou uma parte de meu coração
E eu sei que está desgastado
Então você não vai me poupar indignidade?
E você não vai me dar um pouco de decência?
E você não vai por favor me chamar se o nosso tempo acabar
Porque eu sei que nós nos separamos quando nada é novo
Nada é novo
Eu quero estar perto de você
Mas eu não sei o que fazer
Porque se estamos perto de passar
Pode piorar
E se eu começar a sofrer
Porque parece que você está prestes a sair
Me desculpe, eu não sou ingênuo
Eu estive aqui antes
Então você não vai me poupar indignidade?
E você não vai me dar um pouco de decência?
E você não vai por favor me chamar se o nosso tempo acabar
Porque eu sei que nós nos separamos quando nada é novo
Nada é novo
Nada é novo, nada é novo
Nada é novo, nada é novo
Nada é novo, nada é novo
Nada é novo, nada é novo
Nada é novo
Nada é novo
Nada é novo, nada é novo

@gstarlight6269
It's because of the strength that it bears. The feeling of monotony, of panic, of fear, of sadness. The echoing voice of the subsconcious self. It hits really deep in your soul.
