["I know it all sounds so contrived, but it's got to me","So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress","And I feel the way you hold, hold me back from this","You know I've got to be more than this","The more you think, the less you act their way","The more you think, the less you act their way","","You make me smile again, yeah","Looks like I've lost my mind once again","","Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow","","Somebody told me that I always have to bow","If that was true I would have fallen apart by now","So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress","All these times that I need more, make me take away","All these words that I can't afford, I'll never feel another day","You look so worn, I bet that life has got you down","All these words that I can't afford, never feel another day","'Cause I walk a different street to you","Sitting on the fence, can't decide","If that was true I would have fallen apart by now","So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress","Chances that I've missed, now they're gone","You make me smile again","The more you think, the less you act their way","It makes me take away","","Apathy is all I sense, the feeling's too intense","All these words that I can't afford, never feel another day","You make me smile again","But it will never get to me","","","So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress","Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow","Don't frown, don't scorn","","","Growing back into the ground, make me smile again","Never reason with a fool, but is that unkind","Don't frown, don't scorn","If that was true I would have fallen apart by now","","But it will never get to me","Tell me now, can you hear the sound of all these people falling down","The more you think, the less you act their way","","'Cause I walk a different street to you","If that was true I would have fallen apart by now","You look so worn, I bet that life has has got you down","All these times that I want more, make me take away","Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow"]
