Sub.ver.si.va is Manu Gavassi’s witty confession about a love story that feels more like a dare than a romance. She plays the role of the subversive girl who openly experiments with boundaries, “testing” her partner just to see if he will stay. Spoiler: he always does. The lyrics swing between flirtation and frustration, highlighting how both lovers claim they “don’t want problems” yet keep running back to the same magnetic, slightly toxic dynamic.
Underneath the playful tone, Manu spotlights the contradiction at the core of many modern relationships: craving stability while feeding off the thrill of chaos. She admits her “maturity is selective,” embraces her own dose of “madness,” and calls out her partner for loving it just as much. In the end, their endless loop isn’t about logic at all—it’s about attention, obsession, and the excitement of breaking the rules together.
