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 happened to you, can't be happened 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 happened to you, could be happened to me 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 happened to you, could be happened to me
