I believe the covers getting thrown is a metaphor for laying everything in a relationship out in the open, no longer putting on a facade that everything is fine when you both know it's not.
I also feel that maybe this song is about one person putting more effort into the relationship than their partner and to remind people not to let past unsuccessful relationships dictate their hopes for future ones.
I would love to hear anyone else's interpretations as these lyrics fascinate me.
