Everybody Knows You're Crying — The Mr. T Experience

Everybody says you shouldn't cry everybody's standing by and everybody's gonna roll their eyes if you ever do

everybody says it's not too late and you can still participate you take everybody's bait and everybody laughs at you

they'll leave you crying all alone they'll say they wouldn't have if they had only known

but you see the reality behind their indulgent stares-- everybody knows you're crying no one ever really cares

everybody thinks you're a little slow everyone wants you to know they went through the same thing long ago and it wasn't that hard to do

everybody says they sympathize you stand by while they describe someone you don't even recognize that's supposed to look like you

but they never can explain how to live with such spectacular pain

and when you're at your weakest they advise you to be strong everybody says they've been there everybody must be wrong

ooh ooh ooh ooh everybody knows you're crying

they send their love and love is loud they feel it's greatly to their credit and they're proud of their compassion, and it's true but it doesn't have a lot to do with you

and you can't escape the conclusion though you don't like what it was: everybody says they love you, no one ever really does.

ooh ooh ooh ooh everybody knows you're crying everybody knows you're crying everybody knows you're crying
