My Back Pages Lyrics

The Byrds

Translate to

Crimson flames tied through my years
Flowing high and mighty trapped
Countless fire and flaming road
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

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

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
