The song is an unburdening of the sadness and loneliness of living in the road, touring with a band every time. “The Road” brings hard rock and country, mixed with the normal hardcore feeling of the whole From Death To Destiny. The meaning of the song is apparent in the chorus:
I wanna go home
I wa...
[Verse 1]
Street signs, so many street signs, pass me by every night
And I know tomorrow I won't recognise the world
Home bound, but I want to be home now
Two more months of empty faces
Standing there screaming up at me and I don't know why
[Chorus]
I wanna go home, I wanna sleep in my own bed
I want a normal life again, is this the end, is this the end?
No matter how hard I try, all I know is the road
All I know is the road
[Verse 2]
Save me, can anyone save me? I don't know who I am anymore
This was supposed to be the dream
You don't see the pain in my eyes?
You don't hear the pain in my words?
I'm just stuck here cold and alone with no one beside me
And I want to go home
[Chorus]
I wanna go home, I wanna sleep in my own bed
I want a normal life again, is this the end, is this the end?
No matter how hard I try, all I know is the road
All I know is the road
[Breakdown]
And you wonder why I'm out of my mind?
And you wonder why I'm out of my mind?
[Chorus]
I wanna go home, I wanna sleep in my own bed
I want a normal life again, is this the end, is this the end?
I wanna go home, I wanna sleep in my own bed
I want a normal life again, is this the end, is this the end?
No matter how hard I try, all I know is the road
All I know is the road
The Road was written by Danny Worsnop & Ben Bruce & James Cassells.

Asking Alexandria released The Road on Tue Aug 06 2013.
It actually started off with the drum beat in the beginning. I had that drumbeat in my head. I programmed it into my computer, and I just kept jamming it. I was like, ‘This is such a cool drum beat. I want to write something to it.’ That’s actually how it started. We went from there.
