because if you attempted you would just fail by making a solid or a gas.

The atoms are already packed about as close together as they can. As you apply more compressive force, the electron orbitals experience electrostatic repulsion (negative repels negative) and resist further increase in density. In some liquids, when the compressive forces are immense (such as at the centers of heavenly bodies) then liquids can sometimes enter the solid state above their freezing point. With REALLY strong compression, even more exotic processes (so-called electron degeneracy) can occur, but let's not go there.

in liquid the atoms are packed closely , i.e already compressed but not as in solid, as compared to gas gas can be compressed
