Lies that life is black and white
We'll meet on edges soon said I
Of ancient history
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
I'm younger than that now
I'm younger than that now
I'm younger than that now
Ah, but I was so much older than
Ah, but I was so much older than
When abstract threats too noble to neglect
Spoke from my skull I dreamed
Good and bad, I define these terms
To memorizin' politics
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
Romantic facts of musketeers
I'm younger than that now
Unthought of, though, somehow
Girls faces formed the forward path
Rip down all hate I screamed
Deceived me into thinkin'
Ah, but I was so much older than
Pounced with fire on flamin' roads
My guard stood hard
Flung down by corpse evangelists
Ah, but I was so much older than
I'm younger than that now
I'm younger than that now
Proud 'neath heated brow
I'm younger than that now
I had somethin' to protect
Ah, but I was so much older than
From phony jealousy
Foundation deep somehow
I'm younger than that now
Usin' ideas as my maps
