My Back Pages
Crimson flames tied through my ears Rollin' high and mighty traps Pounced with fire on 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-racked 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 Foundationed 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 Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Fearing that I'd become my enemy In the instant that I preach
My existence led by confusion boats Mutiny from stern to bow 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
I was so much older then I'm younger than that now
