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.
