"Now with their hands held high, they reached out for the open skies
And in one last breath they built the roads they'd ride to their death"
A great line - I think it means that the protagonists have made a definitive decision, one from which there is no going back. "with their hands held high / they reached out for the open sky" - in a way it sounds like they're not ashamed of their decision, but it a way it sounds like they're not convinced they've made the right choice, and are reaching out to heaven for strength, or for reassurance. "they built the roads they'd ride to their death" - there's no turning back from the decision they've made. Good or bad, right or wrong, they're stuck with the choice they made - and they'll need to pay the price.
