From Hero To Zero

(album: No Turn Unstoned - 2012)

Said that you was king in '53
You carved yourself a place in history
Your name stood ten feet tall in neon lights
Your lucky star would shine on ever bright

They said you had the world right at your feet
A legend that grew up right off the street
Until you started drinking it away
You might have been a hero still today

From hero to zero
Won't be my epitaph
I'll be the last to laugh
From hero to zero
I'll be the one decider on my fate

Guess it doesn't matter anyway
Just how you sing the blues and how you play
I guess you just can't make it off the floor
Well now you're not the kingpin anymore

From hero to zero
Won't be my epitaph
I'll be the last to laugh
From hero to zero
I'll be the one decider on my fate
