No Way Out
Cobi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

High and dry with nowhere to go
Trying face the world alone
That's how it feels when you're mentally unstable
Hurt the ones who love you the most
Make mistakes you can never atone
Find the bottle when there's no food on the table
I've been talking to myself cause I think the whole worlds gone crazy
What's keeping me alive is the hope that someone can save me
So much of my life
Is outta control
Feeling like there's no way out
I'm buried alive
So deep in this hole
Feeling like there's no way out
Damage done I'll let you be the judge
That's the price that you pay for love
I would always hide what I didn't want you to see
Was alright until you called my bluff
When I needed you the most
You would go walking out walking out on me
So much of my life
Is outta control
Feeling like there's no way out
I'm buried Alive
So deep in this hole
Feeling like there's no way out
There's no way out
No way out




There's no way out
No way out

Line by Line Meaning

High and dry with nowhere to go
Feeling abandoned, hopeless and aimless


Trying face the world alone
Struggling to cope with life's challenges single-handedly


That's how it feels when you're mentally unstable
The burden of mental illness leaves one feeling distressed and unsupported


Hurt the ones who love you the most
Inadvertently causing pain and disappointment to those closest to us


Make mistakes you can never atone
Erring irreparably with unchangeable consequences


Find the bottle when there's no food on the table
Seeking solace in alcohol to ease the pain of poverty and hunger


I've been talking to myself cause I think the whole worlds gone crazy
Rambling to oneself as one feels disillusioned and that the world has lost its sanity


What's keeping me alive is the hope that someone can save me
Looking to someone to rescue and offer relief from despair


So much of my life Is outta control
Feeling powerless and overwhelmed by circumstances


Feeling like there's no way out
Trapped in a situation without hope or relief


I'm buried alive So deep in this hole
Immersed in a seemingly insurmountable pit of despair


Damage done I'll let you be the judge
Acknowledging responsibility for one's actions and consequences


That's the price that you pay for love
Love can result in pain, regret, and loss


I would always hide what I didn't want you to see
Keeping one's true self concealed from those near and dear for fear of rejection or disappointment


Was alright until you called my bluff
Faking okay until exposed and called out by a loved one


When I needed you the most You would go walking out walking out on me
Feeling let down and abandoned by someone who was relied upon in a time of need


There's no way out
A sense of entrapment and hopelessness


No way out
An unbreakable sense of confinement


There's no way out
Perpetual entrapment without hope of escape


No way out
A definitive state of unrelenting confinement
