Blackout
Veto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We've been over this
We've been over this a hundred times
And I'm tired now
Yes, I'm tired now

We've been sitting here
We've been talking now for hours on
And I'm tired now
Yes, I'm tired now

You are nothing without that someone
To keep you from blackin' out

I've been walking here
I've been walking here for hours now
And I'm tired now
Yes, I'm tired now

When you see this place
The things I say rewind and play again
And I can't find the cord to pull the plug

So I loop forever, loop forever, loop forever

You are nothing without that someone
To keep you from blackin' out





You are nothing

Overall Meaning

without that someone to keep you grounded and prevent you from losing control. The singer is tired of going over the same issues with their partner, and they've been sitting and talking for hours. The repetition of being "tired now" could signify emotional exhaustion from the constant arguing or the lack of progress in their relationship. When the singer mentions "looping forever," it could be interpreted as feeling trapped in the same cycle or loop of problems, unable to break free from it. The line "And I can't find the cord to pull the plug" could symbolize a desire to end the relationship but feeling unable to do so, perhaps due to fear of being alone or codependency.


Overall, "Blackout" seems to be about the struggles of a failing relationship and the need for an anchor to prevent one from losing control or giving up. The song reflects the raw emotions and weariness that come with fighting for a love that may no longer work.

Damnit just when I thought no I’m good with my tech pac mc special ops I see this and want this instead . It never ends this will be my 10th veto bag

@chrisaustin3805

When will it be available in the UK?

@user-yw8cj6ww3p

Welp found my next bag, I’ve run the tech lc for 6 years now and it’s solid. Only complaint was some of my long spud wrenches are poking out the top

@TreasureCoastElectric

Still waiting for it to drop on the website ⌛️

@benc1439

Is it bigger than a tech mct?

@nickboutin857

Dawn Powell at veto pro pac made me hate the company. Great products- but I will never look at the company the same.

@keehn20

Why is that? What did he say?

@Mike-wx9ki

Care to elaborate?

@pan_kat1083

not really an upgrade from original LC. I am working in food industry, your bags are superior but we need something that we can easily clean with rag or splash of water. I love your tech pac but without detachable its no use. imagine straps are put on the wet stinky rotten contaminated floor.
