NO WAY
The Famous And Naked Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do you feel it?
Leave your bag of bones
Underneath your bed
Everything is as
It should be
I'm leaving now
As I should be
No way, no way
No we're never gonna talk about it
No way, no way
No we're never gonna speak again
No way, no way
No we're never gonna talk about it
No way, no way
When the night descends
I sleep in
All the things you've done
Come to hold me
All that we can do
Is smile
It would be like this
For a while
No way, no way
No we're never gonna talk about it
No way, no way
No we're never gonna speak again
No way, no way
No we're never gonna talk about it
No way, no way
I'm not sad, really
All this means, losing
Letting go, oo-oo
Don't look out, oo-oo
No way, no way, no way
The lyrics in The Famous And Naked's song No Way express a sense of finality and closure. The first verse begins with Daylight breaking and asks, "Do you feel it?" This can suggest a new beginning or hope for a brighter future. The second line, "Leave your bag of bones underneath your bed," encourages the listener to let go of their past and move forward. The artist then affirms, "Everything is as it should be" and declares their departure, "I'm leaving now, as I should be." This might suggest that the person has found peace with their decision and looks forward to a fresh start.
In the chorus, the repetitive phrase "No way" reinforces this sense of finality, indicating that there is no turning back. The artist sings, "No we're never gonna talk about it, no way, no way, no we're never gonna speak again." This repetition and affirmation solidify the decision to let go of the past, without ever looking back.
In the second verse, the artist sings about "All the things you've done" that "Come to hold me" implying that the things done in the past haunt them, and they cannot escape them. The artist then acknowledges that they can't change what has happened and "all that we can do is smile" and recognize that things are how they are. The mood throughout the song remains solemn, emphasized by the melancholic and minimalistic instrumentals throughout the song.

Leave your bag of bones
Forget your worries and troubles

Your actions
Come to hold me
Haunt me
All that we can do
Our only option
Is smile
Is grin
It would be like this
Things will be like this
For a while
For some time
I'm not sad, really
I'm not unhappy, in truth
All this means, losing
This means losing
Letting go, oo-oo
Releasing, ooh-ooh
Don't look out, oo-oo
Don't look outside, ooh-ooh
No way, no way, no way
Absolutely not, never, no way

As a rock listener for the most part, I recommend this album. Some parts sound like "Radiohead", others reminds of M83, or even Roxette. It may not be so original in its sound, but it is authentic and flawless.

Mere words cannot express my sheer, unadulterated love for this band.

This song makes me feel sad and happy at the same time. It does no matter how many years have passed since the first time I listened to it. I just love it! Thanks T/N/A/F

This is still their very best song ("Young Blood" is amazing don't get me wrong but "No Way" is a masterpiece). I actually found myself terrified of the loud parts the first times I heard it but since then it grew on me and it now has a very special place in my heart. Although the second album is great, and the third is good too, none of them has the brilliance this song and this album has. "Passive Me Aggressive You" is mindnumbingly good, and the feelings this song and others give you are just sublime... This should really be the credit titles of a movie or something. The video is also breathtaking and mysterious and emotional, and I like the fact there's no clear storyline beside a bride, a ninja, and a black power-ranger (or more than one of each) running around and random stuff blowing up constantly.

The last minute of the song never fails to give me chills

This is THE song I listen to, every single time I drive to the slopes. Can't erase the memory of wind gushing on your face, as you power down the endless slopes, being utterly, completely free. As though nothing else matters. Time stands still. Ah, snowboarding. :'-)

I saw them open for Imagine Dragons a couple year back, and The Naked and Famous out-shined the headliner and I've been a huge fan ever since
