Say It's Not True

The harder we play The faster we fall When we think that we know it all We know nothing at all The letter arrives Like a bolt from the blue So what's left of your lives All your dreams lost to you Say it's not true Say it today When I open my eyes Will it all go away Say it's not true Say it for real Can't be happening to you Can't be happening to me It's hard not to cry It's hard to believe So much heartache and pain So much reason to grieve With the wonders of science All the knowledge we've stored Magic cocktails for lives People just can't afford Say it's not true You can say it's not right It's hard to believe The size of the crime Say it's not true You can say it's not real Could be happening to you Could be happening to me
