Zero
Suicide Machine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And neither are you
There's been a lot of changes in the both of us,
You said you see that to
I've wasted such a lot of time to find I was
Looking at the wrong things
If its an apology you're waiting for, you could
Wait a long time
Just to feel like a zero
Life really sucks ya know when ya
Yeah feel like a zero
I've wasted such a long time too
Just to feel like a zero
You're not the only one who's held me in
You said I broke your heart
It would've been the the other way around when I was young
But sooner or later we've all got to
Grow up
I don't know if I should tell you how I'm feeling
Chances are you're laughing at me
And tell me that I don't know
What I'm saying
It's not my fault
The lyrics to Suicide Machine's song "Zero" speak to the experience of feeling lost and aimless in life, as well as grappling with the changes that come with growing older. The singer acknowledges that they and their listener have both changed since their younger days, but seems to feel a sense of regret for having spent so much time on the wrong things. They seem to be searching for some kind of absolution or understanding from the listener, but also acknowledge that an apology might not be forthcoming or even possible.
The line "Just to feel like a zero" speaks to the sense of worthlessness and insignificance that the singer is feeling in the face of these changes and regrets. They seem to feel that life is a struggle and that they are not living up to their own expectations. The acknowledgement that "Life really sucks ya know when ya/ Yeah feel like a zero" drives home the feelings of frustration and despair that permeate the song.
Despite their sense of loss and confusion, the singer also acknowledges that they have had experiences with other people, including those who have "held" them in some way. The line "It would've been the other way around when I was young" suggests that the singer perhaps used to be more dominant or in control in relationships, but that this has changed over time. The repeated refrain of "I've wasted such a long time too/ Just to feel like a zero" drives home the sense of despair and regret that the singer is experiencing.
Overall, the lyrics to "Zero" paint a picture of someone who is struggling to come to terms with their place in the world and their feelings about their past. Despite acknowledging that everyone must "grow up" eventually, the singer seems to feel adrift and unable to find a sense of purpose or satisfaction.

I'm not the same as I was when I was young
I have changed since my younger days
And neither are you
You have also changed since I last knew you
There's been a lot of changes in the both of us,
Both of us have undergone many changes
You said you see that to
You agreed that we have both changed
I've wasted such a lot of time to find I was
I have spent much time searching for something
Looking at the wrong things
But I had been focusing on the wrong things
If its an apology you're waiting for, you could
If you are expecting an apology from me, it may
Wait a long time
take a while
I've wasted such a long time
I have spent so much time
Just to feel like a zero
Only to feel worthless
Life really sucks ya know when ya
Life can be tough sometimes when you
Yeah feel like a zero
feel useless
You're not the only one who's held me in
You were not the only one who was close to me
You said I broke your heart
You claim that I hurt you emotionally
It would've been the the other way around when I was young
Back when I was younger, it could have been the opposite situation
But sooner or later we've all got to
Eventually, we all need to
Grow up
mature
I don't know if I should tell you how I'm feeling
I am unsure if I should express my emotions to you
Chances are you're laughing at me
Likely, you would find it amusing or ridiculous
And tell me that I don't know
and say I am clueless
What I'm saying
about what I am trying to communicate.
It's not my fault
I am not to blame for how I feel.
