Back to zero

Back down this road,

Back to this time

And nothing ever showed

Neither a nickel, nor a dime.

*

Back to the life I never knew,

Back to the beginning, to the start,

Back to the place I’ve never been too.

I might be going back but not my heart.

*

Back to zero, back to the starting line,

Back to what was once home,

With nobody to give me a sign

Just going back – all alone.

*

Back to an unknown past,

I didn’t get rich, didn’t become a hero,

But time went by so fast

And now it’s back down to zero.
