Everybody Knows You're Crying Lyrics - 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
