Lostprophets - The Fake Sound Of Progress

Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow
If that was true, I would've 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 controlled, but it's got to me
You know I've got to be more than this

Don't frown, don't scorn, 'cos I walk a different street to you
You look so worn, I bet that life has got you floored
But it will never get to me

Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow
If that was true, I would've 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, cos I walk a different street to you
You look so worn, I bet that life has got you floored
But it will never get to me

Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow
If that was true, I would've 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 accounted for
Never feel another day
All these talks and I want more
Make me take away
Tell me now can you hear the sound
Of all these people falling down
Crawling back into the ground
Make me smart again

Jamie:
Raah, swing it!
It sounds like dah dah dah dah dah dah dah (it sounds like)
Dah dah dah dah dah (it sounds like this) dah dah dah

All these words and that I accounted for
Never feel another day
All these talks and I want more
Make me take away
All these words that I accounted for
Never feel another day
It makes me take away

Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow, (fake sound)
If that was true, I would've fallen apart by now
The more you think the less you act their way, (fake sound)
So can you hear this
The fake sound of progress, (the fake sound of progress)

Make me smart again (the fake sound of progress)
Make me smart again (the fake sound of progress)
Make me smart again (the fake sound of progress)
The fake sound of progress
