I knew to keep quiet was the crime of the time. And if I did try it - It would be the death of my mind. They said to be loved you must tow the party line. But I can't pretend so I left it behind. So we spoke our mind. And I'll never find that I'm a lesser man for speaking my mind. Popularity traded but at least I would speak And my critics still wait for me to trip on the street. When this world rains disaster why take a back seat. We must move forward, let the meek remain weak. So we spoke our mind. And I'll never find that I'm a lesser man for speaking my mind.
