Byrds, Bob Dylan

Crimson flames tied through my years

Rollin high and mighty trapped

Countless violent flaming roads

Using ideas as my map

"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


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

Sisters fled by confusion boats

Mutiny from stern to bow

Ah but I was so much older then

I'm younger than that now

SOLO


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
