Released on May 24th, the song showcases her vocal prowess and ability to craft relatable narratives through music.
“End of the Road” finds its roots in a period of personal turmoil for Jensen.

The track opens with the familiar twang of country guitar chords, soon intertwined with modern pop elements. Jensen’s vocals, described as honey-like, convey a mix of vulnerability and resilience. Her lyrical honesty and evocative storytelling give the song a heart-to-heart feel, akin to a deep conversation with a close friend.
