Don't Say It Isn't So

I get caught in a race war trying to buy some bread
Somehow caught in the crossfire just trying to make my bed
Guess I gotta lie in it
And I quit hoping and holding out for some sense
My only refuge lies in the past and the future tense
You're still my first line of defence

And all you are and ever were is the logic now
That I'm holding so fast to, answers in your hands
You called it just like you saw it
And it only matters that I hold you so closely
Feel somehow you chose me
Don't say it isn't so

'Cos I quit hoping and holding out for some sense
There's some escape here in the bass and the treble clef
All the rest is just meaningless
And I got caught in a land war I did not incite
I cross the street just to try to breathe and to re-unite
Only you can get me through the night

And all you are and ever were is the logic now
That I'm holding so fast to, answers in your hands
You called it just like you saw it
And it only matters that I hold you so closely
Feel somehow you chose me
Don't say it isn't so
Don't say it isn't so...
