Lonely Boogie
Kevin Krauter Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Newest illusion submit in the moonlight
Such a lonely little boogie,
that'll last me ‘till the morning
Now that nobody's home and I'm having a good time
I'm in my own head now and finding my way out so
Don't tie me up I'm cutting it off
Bobbing my head to a lonely reflection
Lively inside of a new conversation
Such a lovely little dream
And I'm pretending to be sleeping
High again all alone and I'm jamming out so hard
I'm in my own place now and finding my way out so
Don't tie me up I'm cutting it off
Running my luck I took the day off
The song, Lonely Boogie by Kevin Krauter, captures the feeling of being alone and finding solace in oneself. The first verse describes how the late afternoon turns into a late night, suggesting that time is passing and the feeling of loneliness has extended beyond the typical hours of the day. The singer admits that they are indulging in a "lonely little boogie" - a form of self-expression that seems to be a coping mechanism to ward off the feeling of loneliness. It almost seems like they are creating their own party, one that they don't need anyone else to enjoy.
In the second verse, the lyrics become more introspective. The singer talks about being in their own head and finding their way out, suggesting that they are struggling with their own thoughts and emotions. They do not want to be held back by any external factor, hence, the line "Don't tie me up I'm cutting it off". The lyrics potentially can mean the breakaway from negative thoughts, emotions, or relationships. In addition, the line "Running my luck I took the day off" can mean taking a break from everyday life tasks to find themselves and to work on their own well-being.
The chorus of the song is the singer affirming themselves, finding happiness in their own company and backhandedly showing their indifferent attitude towards external factors. This is a song about self-preservation and how through solidarity, we can overcome anything.

Late afternoon turning into a late night
Newest illusion submit in the moonlight
Such a lonely little boogie that’ll last me ‘till the morning
Now that nobody’s home and I’m having a good time
I’m in my own head now and finding my way out so
Don’t tie me up I’m cutting it off
