The Fake Sound Of Progress (Machine Remix) (Radio Edit 1)
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 blown 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 blown 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 thoughts 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...
(The fake sound of progress... the fake sound of progress... the fake sound of progress...) Make me smile again Make me smile again, yeah Make me smile again
