lirik lagu america - 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
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 n-ble 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
