about

This is the fourth track on the album 'All The Points At Which We Meet' by Ryan Williams.

lyrics

It's written on your face, it's choosing all your words
It's finding ways to sneak out every time your back is turned
You always catch it too late, once it's finished all it's work
In red-eyed, lonely mornings when the images return

The stand-in says the feelings that you promised not to feel
Mixes them with half-truths 'til you can't tell what is real
The fear that grips you mirrors now the shame you had denied
The emptiness you claimed was full as you sat and laughed at pride

Don't feel the fear that leads you down that same old lonesome track
Don't chase the cheese that guides you towards that same old loaded trap
The patterns that you try to hide will demand of you the truth
And you know you never hide it near as well as you feel that you need to

Now walking down the tracks again and cursing to the sky
As empty and as open as your heart that beats inside
you recognize there are stars that shine, accompanying the moon
but in these times, these cloudy nights, it's one big empty room
