From:
Crimson flames tied through my years
Rollin high and mighty trapped
Countless fire and flaming roads
Using ideas as my map
"We'll meet our legends soon" said I
Proud 'neath heated brow
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now
Half wracked prejudice leaped forth
"Rip down all hate" I screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Spoke from my skull. I dreamed
Romantic flanks of musketeers
Foundations deep, somehow
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now
In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not I'd become my enemy
In the instant that I preach
Distance fled thy confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now
My God stood hard when abstract threats
Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad I define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
Ah but I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now
