Crimson flames tied through my ears
Rollin' h igh and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
Using i deas as my maps
'We'll meet on edges soon' said I
Pr oud 'neath heated brow
Ah, but I was so much ol der then
I'm y ounger than that now
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
'Rip d own all hate' I screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Sp oke from my skull, I dreamed
Romantic facts of musketeers
Found ationed deep somehow
Ah, but I was so much ol der then
I'm y ounger than that now
In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand
At the m ongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not I'd become my enemy
In the i nstant that I preach
My existence led by confusion boats
Mu tiny from stern to bow
Ah, but I was so much ol der then
I'm y ounger than that now
Ah, but I was so much ol der then
I'm y ounger than that now

Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats
Too n oble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had s omething to protect
Good and bad, I define these terms
Quite c lear, no doubt, somehow
Ah, but I was so much ol der then
I'm y ounger than that now
I'm y ounger than that now
I'm y ounger than that now
