Crimson flam es tied through my ears
Rollin' high and mighty tra ps
Pounced with fir e on flaming roads
Using ideas as my ma ps
'We'll me et on edges soon' said I
Proud 'neath heated bro w
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger t han that now
Half-wracked pr ejudice leaped forth
'Rip down all hate' I scre amed
Lies that li fe is black and white
Spoke from my skull, I dre amed
Roma ntic facts of musketeers
Foundationed deep somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger t han that now
In a soldier's stan ce, I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not I'd beco me my enemy
In the instant that I pre ach
My ex istence led by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger t han that now
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger t han that now
D/Dsus4/D/Dsus4/
Yes, my guard stood har d when abstract threats
Too noble to negle ct
Deceived me in to thinking
I had something to prote ct
Go od and bad, I define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I'm younger t han that now
I'm younger t han that now
I'm younger t han that now
