So Low
Matt Berry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got plenty of money
I got people who know me
I got no one to love me
I'm so low
I don't know
I should go
Gotta get me to the top
But it's a million to one shot
I should be happy with my lot
But I guess that I am not
I got plenty of money
I got no one to love me
I'm so low
I don't know
I should go
The lyrics of Matt Berry's song "So Low" paint a picture of a man who appears to have everything one could want: heaven above him, plenty of money, and people who know him. However, he is missing one key element - love. Despite his material possessions, this man is "so low" that he doesn't know what to do or where to go.
The chorus of the song reflects the man's desire to climb to the top, but he acknowledges that it's a million to one shot. He recognizes that he should be happy with what he has, but he can't help feeling empty without someone to love. The repetition of the line "I'm so low, I don't know, I should go" reinforces the man's sense of confusion and aimlessness.
Overall, this song explores themes of loneliness, materialism, and the search for love and fulfillment. Despite having everything he could want, the singer still feels unfulfilled and empty.

@LeavinMyTown also in "Medicine" you never get to see that bassist girl wearing a magician's hat other than from very very far, other musicians' faces can be seen a few times almost accidentally, but most of the time there are two Matts simultaneously in the screen... It's all subtle and hilarious.
