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
