Veto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In paper and pencils
I'm nothing more
Than a simple machine
I feel like running away
I've had enough
Of crushing digits
I'm just a dot
On a piece of paper
I just feel like
Letting it all slide
I'm up to here
In paper and pencils
I'm nothing more
Than the shit I own
I feel like
Letting it all go
I've had enough
Of crushing digits
I'm not worth more
Than I earn
I just feel like
Letting it all slide
The lyrics to Veto's song "Digits" express a feeling of frustration and a desire to escape from the constraints of material possessions and the pressures of the modern world. The references to "paper and pencils" and "crushing digits" suggest a sense of being stuck in a mundane, repetitive routine, perhaps related to work or school. The singer feels like they are just a cog in the machine, "nothing more than a simple machine" with no real value beyond what they can produce.
The repeated refrain of "letting it all slide" suggests a desire to give up on the everyday struggles of life and just let go of all the responsibilities and pressures. The phrase "I'm not worth more than I earn" highlights the feeling of being trapped in a cycle of work and materialism, where one's worth is determined by their income and possessions.
Overall, "Digits" speaks to a universal desire for freedom and a sense of purpose beyond material possessions and societal expectations.
Line by Line Meaning
I'm up to here
I am overwhelmed and cannot handle any more
In paper and pencils
In work or school assignments, constantly having to write and calculate
I'm nothing more
I do not feel like an individual with unique qualities and abilities
Than a simple machine
I feel like my only purpose is to complete repetitive tasks without any personal growth or fulfillment
I feel like running away
I want to escape from all my responsibilities and obligations
I've had enough
I have reached my limit and can no longer tolerate this situation
Of crushing digits
Of constantly performing math calculations or working with numbers
I'm just a dot
I feel insignificant and unimportant, like a small mark on a piece of paper
On a piece of paper
In the grand scheme of things or in the eyes of others, my accomplishments and contributions may seem small or inconsequential
I just feel like
I simply have the desire to do something, without any specific plan or action
Letting it all slide
To neglect or abandon all my responsibilities and obligations
I'm nothing more
I do not feel like an individual with unique qualities and abilities
Than the shit I own
I am defined by my possessions and material belongings
I feel like
I have the desire
Letting it all go
To completely disregard all my responsibilities and obligations, without regret or concern for the consequences
