Discover the story of the song > Road Regrets – Dan Mangan

The protagonist and his partner are driving until they run out of gas and then walk until their feet hurt, continuing to crawl until they can't go any further. They film the whole thing as they escape, but escape can't be the only way. The protagonist is used to feeling regret about all the traveling they've done and the choices they've made, but he continues anyway. The chorus talks about how it's a shame that life takes you back to where you started, no matter how far you've gone or what you've experienced.
