For All Of Us 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
