Zurück Lyrics in English Flo Mega

Home / Lyrics Translation / Flo Mega / Zurück

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Zurück by Flo Mega from German to English.

Do you know how deep I sank

Do you know how far I’ve run

With shoes of lead and ten bullets in my back

And nothing on my mind but your smile

God is my witness

I accepted it after 1,000 miles on foot

I push the handle of the door that leads to me

And think, finally visitors again

I’m back

From where the pepper grows

Back, baby

Back from the asphalt to Mount Everest

I’m back

The long road all without you

I open the door for myself

And see myself standing there

And feel my love is stronger than ever

I sailed on a raft of pallets and canisters

Across the seven seas

No night without stars

No dream without you

No day I lived without you

My voice pierced the darkness

My curses turned to prayers

'Cause nobody was with me

Just me all alone

Talking to myself for days

I’m back

From where the pepper grows

Back, baby

Back from the asphalt to Mount Everest

I’m back

The long road all without you

I open the door for myself

And see myself standing there

And feel my love is stronger than ever

Love me or leave it

I don’t care

'Cause I found myself

Life is just too easy

And at some point you can’t go any lower

It’s enough for me just to know

That my soul is still intact

That nothing stops me, baby

From coming back as a made man

No mountain range

No deep-sea trench

No lockup or barbed wire

I’m back

From where the pepper grows

Back, baby

Back from the asphalt to Mount Everest

I’m back

The long road all without you

I open the door for myself

And see myself standing there

And I feel my love is stronger

Stronger, stronger than ever

SONG MEANING

“Zurück” is Flo Mega’s triumphant road-movie in song form. Picture the singer trudging across deserts in lead-soled shoes, bullet-scarred yet stubbornly clutching the memory of a single smile. He sails oceans on a makeshift raft, talks to himself through star-flecked nights, and turns angry curses into whispered prayers. Every wild image is a metaphor for hitting rock bottom, discovering that there really is no “further down,” and deciding to climb back up with love as the compass.

When he finally pushes open the door to his old life, the big reveal is not a reunion with someone else but a reunion with himself. The journey has welded self-respect, resilience, and an even fiercer love that no mountain, trench, or barbed wire can cage. “Zurück” celebrates that electric moment when you step inside, see your own reflection, and know you made it home stronger than ever.
