Nobunny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't have the strength to fight
I just want to stay at home
I just want to be alone
Tonight, alright, tonight
alright, tonight
you can count me out of it
Go ahead and have your fun
I don't need anyone
tonight, alright, tonight
alright, tonight
Nobunny's song Church Mouse portrays a feeling of being worn out and tired of the chaos that surrounds us. It starts with the lyrics "Leave me alone I'm doing alright," and this represents a desire of wanting to be alone without being plagued by the world's problems. Nobunny sings about not having the strength to fight, which carries a sense of defeat and exhaustion. The phrase "I just want to stay at home" follows, which perhaps suggests that this is where the character in the song finds safety, comfort, and peace. By saying "I don't need anyone," Nobunny gives us the impression that we don't always require companionship to be happy. The track ends with the repeated phrase "tonight, alright" which indicates that the person has found some form of solace.
