E       C#         G#                        A        B      E     
Crimson flames tied through my ears, rollin' high and mighty traps 
E         C#       G#                  A           B 
Pounced with fire on flaming roads, using ideas as my maps 
C#                      G#           A               B 
We'll meet on edges, soon said I, proud 'neath heated brow

   Ah but I was so much older then 
	 A       B         E    
   I'm younger than that now 
 
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth, rip down all hate I scream 
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... 
 
In a soldier's stance I aimed my hand at the mongrel dogs who teach 
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy in the instant that I preach 
My pathway led to confusion boats, mutiny from stern to bow 
  
   Ah but I was so much older...

   Ah but I was so much older... 
 
Yes my guards stood hard when abstract threats too nobel 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...x3
