They can't leave because they are waiting for Godot. That is the limit of their existence, the reason for their being. The only order that exists in their world is their mission to wait for Godot. If they were to leave and Godot arrived, what then?
Someone has created a funny cartoon based on this play in which guinea pigs play the characters. That is a good image for Vladimir and Estragon. It is as if whoever Godot turns out to be is testing them, trying to see if they will wait and how long they will wait. I've pasted the link to that cartoon below.
