Lyrics
There are people who think I lead
A kind of charmed life
With everything I need
No pain or strife
If only they knew
The absolute truth
The secrecy and lies
The bitter tears I've cried
The days when I can't hide
From hopelessness inside
The mad humiliation
Of knowing what you've done
In a sad infatuation
That went on far too long
After all that we've been through
Only tears can tell the truth
I'm not crying just for you
I'm crying for me
For those who came between
I'm crying for all of us
For the lack of communication
Secrets shared no longer
For my weak intimidation
When I should have been much stronger
For the jealousy and shame
That you were someone's plaything
For that love that survived the pain
In spite of everything
After all that we've been through
Only tears can tell the truth
I'm not crying just for you
I'm crying for me
For this whole wretched scene
I'm crying for all of us
For the impossibility
Of love in world where sex
Is a cruel competitive sport
For the love that sex rejects
For the ripples spreading wider
For the friendships destroyed
By suspicions and fighting
And the cover-ups implied
After all that we've been through
Only tears can tell the truth
I'm not crying just for you
I'm crying for me
For those who came between
I'm crying for you
For me
For what might have been
For you
And me
Baby, for all of us
For all of us
