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 ways
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 its got to me
you know I've got to be more than this
[PRE-CHORUS]
don't frown, don't scorn, 'cuz I walk a different street to you
you look so worn, i bet that life is has got you blown
but it will never get to me
[CHORUS]
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 ways
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 their gone
apathy is all I sense, the feeling's too intense
sitting on a fence, can't decide
[PRE-CHORUS]
[CHORUS]
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 you hear the sound
of all these people falling down
crawling back into the ground, make me smile again...
AHH SWING IT
dah dah dah dah
(it sounds like...)
dah dah dah dah
(it sounds like this...)
All these words that I accounted for, never fear another day
always charged but I need more, make me take away...
All these words that I accounted for...
I'll never fear another day
Makes me take away!
[CHORUS] (With back voice improvs)
Make me smile again... (the fake sound of progress)
Make me smile again... (the fake sound of progress
