| Crimson flames tied through my ears
|
| Throwin' high and mighty traps
|
| Countless fire and flaming road
|
| 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 preach
|
| My pathway 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
|
| You got me runnin', you got me hidin'
|
| You got me run hide, hide run
|
| Anyway you want baby, oh yeah yeah yeah
|
| You got me doin' what you want me
|
| Baby what you want me to do
|
| I’m goin' up, I’m goin' down
|

|
| Anyway you want
|
| You got me seekin', you got me hidin'
|
| You got me seek hide, hide seek
|
| Anyway you want |
