Dead End Roads Lyrics

We’ve been down this way so many times before
And walked a million miles in the shoes of a hopeless man
Forever embedded in despair
Destined to find his way home
This borrowed time is running out
And these hollow roads are getting old
So let this be a lesson
A violent introduction
To a life of absolution

I do not believe what I see
When the clouds part way with the skies
I hold no responsibility for the things I have done

This is all I am
All I have known
An escalading horror
A never-ending nightmare

I do not believe what I see
When the clouds part way with the skies
I hold no responsibility for the things I have done

I do not blame the locust for devouring the world
It is their destiny to destroy
Trust me when I say that this will hurt
We’ve been down this way so many times before
And walked a million miles in the shoes of a hopeless man
Forever embedded in despair

I do not believe what I see
When the clouds part way with the skies
I hold no responsibility for the things I have done

I do not blame the locust for devouring the world
It is their destiny to destroy

We’ve been down this way so many times before
And walked a million miles in the shoes of a hopeless man
Forever embedded in despair
Destined to find his way home
This borrowed time is running out
And these hollow roads are getting old
So let this be a lesson
A violent introduction
To a life of absolution

I do not believe what I see
When the clouds part way with the skies
I hold no responsibility for the things I have done

This is all I am
All I have known
An escalading horror
A never-ending nightmare

I do not believe what I see
When the clouds part way with the skies
I hold no responsibility for the things I have done

I do not blame the locust for devouring the world
It is their destiny to destroy
Trust me when I say that this will hurt
We’ve been down this way so many times before
And walked a million miles in the shoes of a hopeless man
Forever embedded in despair

I do not believe what I see
When the clouds part way with the skies
I hold no responsibility for the things I have done

I do not blame the locust for devouring the world
It is their destiny to destroy

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
