Lyrics:

Crimson flames tied through my earsRollin' high and mighty trapsCountless fire on flaming roadsUsing ideas as my maps'We'll meet on edges, soon,' said IProud '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 screamedLies that life is black and whiteSpoke from my skull. I dreamedRomantic flanks of musketeersFoundationed deep, somehow.Ah, but I was so much older then,I'm younger than that now.In a soldier's stance, I aimed my handAt the mongrel dogs who teachFearing not that I'd become my enemyIn the instant that I preachSisters fled by confusion boatsMutiny from stern to bow.Ah, but I was so much older then,I'm younger than that now.(musical intermezzo)Ah, but I was so much older then,I'm younger than then now.My guard stood hard when abstract threatsToo noble to neglectDeceived me into thinkingI had something to protectGood and bad, I define these termsQuite clear, no doubt, somehow.Ah, but I was so much older then,I'm younger than that now.
