Square One Lyrics

Had to find some higher ground
Had some fear to get around
You can't say what you don't know
Later on won't work no more

Last time through, I hid my tracks
So well I could not get back
Yeah, my way was hard to find
Can't sell your soul for peace of mind

Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me, my dear
It took a world of trouble, it took a world of tears
It took a long time to get back here

Try so hard to stand alone
Struggle to see past my nose
Always had more dogs than bones
I could never wear those clothes

It's a dark victory
You won and you also lost
Told her she was satisfied
But it never came across

Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me, my dear
It took a world of trouble, it took a world of tears
It took a long time to get back here

Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me, my dear
It took a world of trouble, it took a world of tears
It took a long time to get back here

Square one, my slate is clear
Rest your head on me, my dear
It took a world of trouble, it took a world of tears
It took a long time to get back here

What is the Meaning of Square One?

Tom Petty delivers a masterclass in the "life do-over" anthem category. This tune feels like a cup of strong coffee after a sleepless night of soul-searching. Petty's been through the wringer, navigating fear, failure, and those pesky inner demons that keep us all up at night. But guess what? He’s wiped the slate clean and started fresh, with some hard-earned wisdom and battle scars to show for it. The road to redemption is rocky, folks, but oh-so-satisfying when you finally arrive. #FreshStart #LifeLessons #EmotionalJourney #TomPettyWisdom
