Crimson flames tied through my years Rollin high and mighty trapped Countless violent flaming roads Using ideas as my map "We`ll meet on edges 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 Foundationed 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 Sisters fled by confusion boats Mutiny from stern to bow Ah but I was so much older then I`m younger than that now
My guard 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
