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 whats left of your lives
All your dreams lost to you
Say its not true
Say it today
When I open my eyes
Will it all go away
Say its not true
Say it for real
Cant be happening to you
Cant be happening to me
Its hard not to cry
Its hard to believe
So much heartache and pain
So much reason to grieve
With the wonders of science
All the knowledge weve stored
Magic cocktails for lives
People just cant afford
Say its not true
You can say its not right
Its hard to believe
The size of the crime
Say its not true
You can say its not real
Could be happening to you
Could be happening to me
