She acknowledges the price she's paid for her choices on this forsaken road. In a cautionary tone, she advises others not to embark on a similar path of sin, emphasizing the inevitable sorrow that awaits those who follow in her footsteps. She shares the wisdom gained from her own experiences, urging others to avoid the same fate she's met on the lost highway.
