歌詞

Crimson flames tied through my ears Rollin' high and mighty trapped countless fire and flaming roads Using ideas as my maps 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 foundation 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 preached sisters led by 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 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
