Can you tell us about other songs [on the new album]?
"We've also re-recorded 'Say It's Not True', the one we did as a free download for Nelson Mandela [and his World AIDS Day in 2007], but it now has all three of us singing the verses, and it gets massively heavy at the end."

Lyrics
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
