I Wanna Go Out
Breaking Free: American Authors' Anthem to Liberation
Lyrics
No I can't take it anymore
Feeling overwhelmed and unable to tolerate a situation any longer
I bang my head against the door
Expressing frustration, possibly with a sense of desperation
I'm going out, I, I, love it, love it
Expressing excitement about going out and enjoying oneself
The doctor said I need a sleep
Being advised to rest by a doctor
But I go crazy counting sheep
Struggling with insomnia or restlessness
I'm going out, I, I, love it, love it
Reiterating the excitement about going out despite the need for sleep
Let's get wild and make a memory
Encouraging adventurous behavior to create lasting memories
Hey ya, I wanna go out
Expressing a strong desire to go out and escape from a state of mental exhaustion
I wanna go out, I wanna-na
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
-Out of my mind
-Hey ya, I wanna check out
-Step off of my cloud
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
-Out of my mind
-Oh I'm a zombie , I'm a corpse
Feeling like a lifeless or unresponsive individual
Every day is so boring
Expressing the monotony and lack of excitement in daily life
I'm going out, I, I, love it, love it
Reiterating the excitement about going out despite feeling like a zombie
I'm jumping out the window
Expressing a desire to break free and experience life from a different perspective
Smilin' down at the world below
-I, I, love it, love it
-Let's get wild and make a memory
Encouraging the idea of creating memorable experiences through wild behavior
Hey ya, I wanna go out
Continued emphasis on the strong desire to escape and be free from mental constraints
I wanna go out, I wanna-na
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
-Out of my mind
-Hey ya, I wanna check out
-Step off of my cloud
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
-Out of my mind
-Indecisive, so fragile, so mad
Portraying conflicting emotions—feeling fragile yet mad, enlightened yet scared, and hypnotic yet dazed
Idiotic, insane
-Out of my mind, out of my mind
-So enlightened, but frightened and scared
-So hypnotic and dazed
-Out of my mind, out of my mind
-I wanna, I wanna feel, like something is changing
Expressing a longing for change and the need for something different
Some things need changing
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
Repeating the desire to break free from mental limitations and seek liberation
I wanna go out, I wanna-na
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
-Out of my mind
-Hey ya, I wanna check out
-Step off of my cloud
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
-Out of my mind
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
Continued expression of the strong urge to escape from a state of mental confinement
I wanna go out, I wanna
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
-Out of my mind
-Hey ya, I wanna check out
-Step off of my cloud
-Hey ya, I wanna go out
-Out of my mind
