text: 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 is left of your lives
  All your dreams lost to you
  Say it is not true
  Say it today
  When I open my eyes
  Will it all go away
  Say it is not true
  Say it is not real
  Cannot be happening to you
  Cannot be happening to me
  {Verse 2}
  It is hard not to cry
  It is hard to believe
  So much heartache and pain
  So much reason to grieve
  With the wonders of science
  All the knowledge we have stored
  Magic cocktails for lives
  People just cannot afford
  {Chorus}
