The Fake Sound of Progress

By: Lostprophets

Somebody told me that I always have to bow
if that was true I would have fallen apart by now
The more u think, the less u act their ways
so can u hear this, the fake sound of progress

Never reason with a fool, but is that unkind,
looks like I lost my mind once again
I know it all sounds so contrived, but its got to me
u know I've got to be more than this

don't frown, don't scorn, cus I walk a different street to u
u look so worn, i bet that life is has got you blown
but it will never get to mee

somebody told me that I always have to bow
if that was true I would have fallen apart by now
the more u think, the less u act their ways
so can u hear this, the fake sound of progress

and I feel the way u hold, hold me back from this
chances that I've missed, now their gone
apathy is all I sense, the feelings too intense
sitting on a fence and cant decide

don't frown, don't scorn, cus I walk a different street to u
u look so worn, i bet that life is has got you blown
no body will ever get to me

somebody told me that I always have to bow
if that was true I would have fallen apart by now
the more u think, the less u act their ways
so can u hear this, the fake sound of progress

All these words that I accounted for, never fear another day
always charged but I need more, make me take away
tell me now, can u hear the sound
of all these people falling down
growing back into the ground let me smile again...
smile

Tell me now can u hear the sound, of the record spinning
round and round, for on and on it sounds like the same old
song that I keep singing, it sounds like
dah dah dah dah (yeahyeah sounds like) dah dah dah dah
(all these words that I accounted for, I'll never fear another day)

(improv!!)

somebody told me that I always have to bow
if that was true I would have fallen apart by now
the more u think, the less you act their ways
so can you hear this, the fake sound of progress
yeah yeah yeah progress
make me smile again
