Dead End Street
Gob Squad Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me and the guys we've got to get it on.
Reeling high, swinging low. I am the man.
Follow me, join the game and my masterplan.
So strung out that I can't help
my selfishness is killing me.
I've got a one way ticket and I gotta break free from
My selfishness is killing me.
I've got a one way ticket and I gotta break free from
my mind as I fall.
Watch me as I fall.
Contemplate my headache. Don't give a damn.
All ladies seem fine, meets my demands.
The dead end street is closing in.
Walk alone. I wasn't half the man.
So strung out that I can't help
my selfishness is killing me.
I've got a one way ticket and I gotta break free from
my mind as I fall.
My selfishness is killing me.
I've got a one way ticket and I gotta break free from
my mind as I fall.
Watch me as I fall.
So strung out that I can't help
my selfishness is killing me.
I've got a one way ticket and I gotta break free from
my mind as I fall.
My selfishness is killing me.
I've got a one way ticket and I gotta break free from
my mind as I fall.
Watch me as I fall.
The lyrics to Gob Squad's song "Dead End Street" depict a night out drinking and the singer's struggle with his own selfishness. He sees himself as the leader of the group, with his friends following his lead, but he is also aware that his behavior is self-destructive. He contemplates his headache and doesn't care about the women around him, as he walks alone down the dead end street.
The chorus repeatedly declares that the singer's selfishness is killing him and that he needs to break free from his own mind. The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the seriousness of his situation and the urgency to escape from his own destructive tendencies. The final line, "watch me as I fall," could be interpreted as a cry for help to the people around him who witness his downfall.
Overall, the lyrics to "Dead End Street" are a powerful reflection on substance abuse and the struggle to break free from destructive habits.
