Vermouth IV - Who Are You When I'm Not Around (Official Music Video)

About Vermouth IV Based in Seattle, Washington, Vermouth IV creates atmospheric music built around emotion and memory. Inspired by grey skies, late nights, and moments that don’t let go, each song is a reflection of a feeling — quiet, honest, and unfiltered. #ElectronicMusic #DeepHouse #Triphop Who Are You When I'm Not Around You leave your coffee by the sink The blue mug with the chipped-off rim I know the face you show to me But not the one that lives within You laugh at jokes you never like You say you're fine before I ask Then fold your night behind your eyes And wear your silence like a mask I don't want to own your hidden rooms I only want to know what moves in you Who are you when I'm not around? When the door shuts and the house goes quiet Who hears the thoughts you never sound? Who gets the truth when you don't have to hide it? Is there a life where you come undone? A name you use beneath this one? Tell me who you are when I'm not around So I can love you without making you smaller You keep old tickets in a drawer From places you won't tell me about A faded wristband, two train stops A photograph turned face-down Sometimes you wake before the dawn And stand barefoot beside the bed I reach for you, you turn to me But something else is in your head I could press you till the lock gives way Or leave enough room for you to stay Who are you when I'm not around? When the door shuts and the house goes quiet Who hears the thoughts you never sound? Who gets the truth when you don't have to hide it? Is there a life where you come undone? A name you use beneath this one? Tell me who you are when I'm not around So I can love you without making you smaller Maybe you are not a mystery to solve Maybe love is knowing what it cannot hold If you need a place that doesn't include me I will try not to call that place betrayal But if you turn and find me at the door Don't give me the polished version anymore Bring me the part that trembles when it speaks Bring me the woman you are when you are free Who are you when I'm not around? When nobody needs you to be certain Who lays the careful armor down? Who lets the oldest wound stop hurting? If there's a self you keep from everyone I won't demand she come undone Just tell me who you are when I'm not around And let me meet you when you choose to I know the face you show to me I want to know the life behind it
