I have felt upside down and turned around.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It was just a rouse till you turned me loose.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were misleading and mostly unheeding.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were demanding and not understanding.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I am not proud.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I\u2019m just one of the crowd.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I try to be fair.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Though, it gets me nowhere.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I stick by my word.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

My sincerity is not inferred.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You\u2019re not that way.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t believe a thing you say.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You cheated, lied, and even cried.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I came to know you put on quite a show.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It was all an act, you were a real brat.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were not true, I ended up the fool.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I am not proud.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I am one of the crowd.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I try to be fair.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Though, it gets me nowhere.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You\u2019re not that way.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t believe a thing you say.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Now, you\u2019re free to look for another me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I hope he is cool and can see through you.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It will be hard cause you\u2019re a real card.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But, I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He could drop you and not be a fool.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But I kept my conscience clean.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
