Lyrics

[00:04.70] Crimson flames tied through my ears
[00:07.84] Rollin' high and mighty traps
[00:12.08] Pounced with fire on flaming roads
[00:15.32] Using ideas as my maps
[00:19.63] "We' ll meet on edges, soon," said I
[00:23.02] Proud 'neath heated brow.
[00:26.63] Ah, but I was so much older then,
[00:30.39] I'm younger than that now.
[00:37.04] Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
[00:39.93] "Rip down all hate," I screamed
[00:44.18] Lies that life is black and white
[00:47.40] Spoke from my skull. I dreamed
[00:51.68] Romantic facts of musketeers
[00:55.03] Foundationed deep, somehow.
[00:58.83] Ah, but I was so much older then,
[01:02.69] I'm younger than that now.
[01:08.48] Girls' faces formed the forward path
[01:12.09] From phony jealousy
[01:16.29] To memorizing politics
[01:19.63] Of ancient history
[01:23.59] Flung down by corpse evangelists
[01:27.09] Unthought of, thought, somehow
[01:30.83] Ah, but I was so much older then
[01:34.68] I'm younger than that now.
[02:03.22] Ah, but I was so much older then
[02:06.91] I'm younger than that now.
[02:13.12] My guard stood hard when abstract threats
[02:16.32] Too noble to neglect
[02:20.58] Deceived me into thinking
[02:23.15] I had something to protect
[02:28.15] Good and bad, I define these terms
[02:31.65] Quite clear, no doubt, somehow.
[02:35.09] Ah, but I was so much older then,
[02:38.95] I'm younger than that now
[02:42.84] I'm younger than that now
[02:46.59] I'm younger than that now
[02:50.44] I'm younger than that now
[02:54.27] I'm younger than that now..
