“This song is about the edge of the denial phase when the world's chaos is kept at bay. People reach out, but we're tethered to our solitude. Boss calls, mama beckons, yet the guitar remains our steadfast companion. But in the chorus of denial, a stark truth emerges: 'I can't go out.' It's the admission that shakes the very foundation of our sheltered existence, where the once assured 'everything I need' fades into uncertainty.
For sometimes, staying in is the most intimate rebellion of all.” - The Loyal Cheaters
lyrics
No, no more
No, no more
No, no more
I have everything I need
I don’t have to go out
Beers are in the fridge
The world’s in a hurry
I don’t have to worry
I’ll just stay inside
To continue my journey
People contact me
They wanna hang out
Boss calls me but I can’t go out
Dishes are drowning
Bills are growing
Mama calls me but I can’t go out
My guitar keeps me company
I have everything I need
I don’t have a doubt
when decisions hinge
No wake-up early
Cos I’m not in a hurry
No need to try if
Nothing left’s worthy
People contact me
They wanna hang out
Boss calls me but I can’t go out
Outside is snowing
Traffic is crawling
Mama calls me but I can’t go out
My guitar keeps me company
But I can’t go out
(No more)
I can’t go out
(No more)
I Can’t go out
(No more)
No can’t go out
I said no more I can’t go out
My whole world turned upside down
I can’t go out
(I can’t go out)
No I can’t go out
No, no more
No, no more
I can’t go out
No more
No, no more
I can’t go out
No more
No, no more
I can’t go out
No more
I said no, no more!
But I can’t go out
(No more)
I can’t go out
(No more)
I Can’t go out
(No more)
No can’t go out
I said no more I can’t go out
My whole world turned upside down
I can’t go out
(I can’t go out)
No, I can’t go out
