[00:07.94] Crimson flames tied through my years
[00:11.48] Rollin' high and mighty trapped
[00:16.17] Countless violent flaming roads
[00:19.16] Using ideas as my map
[00:23.29] "We'll meet on edges soon," said I
[00:27.39] Proud 'neath heated brow
[00:30.63] Ahh, but I was so much older then
[00:34.69] I'm younger than that now
[00:40.58] Half wracked prejudice leaped forth
[00:40.63] In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand
[00:44.41] At the mongrel dogs who teach
[00:48.46] Fearing not I'd become my enemy
[00:52.20] In the instant that I preach
[00:56.98] Sisters fled by confusion boats
[01:00.47] Mutiny from stern to bow
[01:03.91] Ahh, but I was so much older then
[01:07.82] I'm younger than that now
[01:11.61]
[01:37.18] Ahh, but I was so much older then
[01:41.17] I'm younger than that now
[01:47.41] My guard stood hard when abstract threats
[01:51.01] Too noble to neglect
[01:55.00] Deceived me into thinking
[01:58.60] I had something to protect
[02:03.04] Good and bad, I define these terms
[02:06.68] Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
[02:10.21] Ahh, but I was so much older then
[02:14.16] I'm younger than that now
