End of the Road
Bad Things Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Silver chairs stuck in your mind
You fall back into
Every time it leaves you tired
Wait to will and walk
This is the side unforgetting
And I don't know where to begin
Safe to I'm lost in the feeling
Feeling we're too small

Wherever we go, to the end of the road
Wherever we go, we are gold
Whoah

When I'm there stuck in your mind,
You crawl back into
Every time it leaves you tired
Wait to will or walk
This is the side unforgetting
And I don't know where to begin
Safe to day I'm lost in the feeling
Feeling we're too small

Wherever we go, to the end of the road
Wherever we go, we are gold
Whoah

This is the side unforgetting
And I'm better without you
Safe to say I'm lost in the feeling

Wherever we go, to the end of the road
Wherever we go, we are gold
Whoah
Wherever we go, to the end of the road




Wherever we go, we are gold
Whoah

Line by Line Meaning

Silver chairs stuck in your mind
Memories of past lovers still haunt your thoughts


You fall back into
You relive those memories over and over again


Every time it leaves you tired
The emotional toll of those memories is exhausting


Wait to will and walk
You struggle to move on from the past


This is the side unforgetting
You can't forget the past and how it has shaped you


And I don't know where to begin
You're lost and don't know how to move forward


Safe to say I'm lost in the feeling
You're overwhelmed and consumed by your emotions


Feeling we're too small
The weight of your past makes you feel small and insignificant


Wherever we go, to the end of the road
No matter where we go in life, we will always come to the end of the road


Wherever we go, we are gold
Despite our struggles and past, we are valuable and have worth


This is the side unforgetting
Our past experiences shape us and we can't forget them


And I'm better without you
While painful, moving on and letting go of someone from our past can be for the best
