The Fake Sound Of Progress Lyrics - The Fake Sound Of Progress - Lostprophets

Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow 

If that was true I would have fallen apart by now 

The more you think, the less you act their way 

So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress 

Never reason with a fool, but is that unkind 

Looks like I've lost my mind once again 

I know it all sounds so contrived, but it's got to me 

You know I've got to be more than this 

Don't frown, don't scorn 

'Cause I walk a different street to you 

You look so worn, I bet that life has has got you down 

But it will never get to me 

Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow 

If that was true I would have fallen apart by now 

The more you think, the less you act their way 

So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress 

And I feel the way you hold, hold me back from this 

Chances that I've missed, now they're gone 

Apathy is all I sense, the feeling's too intense 

Sitting on the fence, can't decide 

Don't frown, don't scorn 

'Cause I walk a different street to you 

You look so worn, I bet that life has got you down 

But it will never get to me 

Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow 

If that was true I would have fallen apart by now 

The more you think, the less you act their way 

So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress 

All these words that I can't afford, never feel another day 

All these times that I need more, make me take away 

Tell me now, can you hear the sound of all these people falling down 

Growing back into the ground, make me smile again 

All these words that I can't afford, never feel another day 

All these times that I want more, make me take away 

All these words that I can't afford, I'll never feel another day 

It makes me take away 

Somebody told me that I always have to bow 

If that was true I would have fallen apart by now 

The more you think, the less you act their way 

So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress 

You make me smile again 

You make me smile again, yeah 

You make me smile again
