General Information

Written by: A. Lee and W. B. Hunt

The 16th track on the Deluxe Edition of Evanescence's self-titled album. It is one of the songs that got reworked from the Lillywhite Sessions (along with Made of Stone, Sick, Swimming Home and End of the Dream).

In an interview with Spin.com, Amy announced the name of three new songs included in the third album, among them is "Secret Door": a ballad played with the harp.[1]

On June 19, Amy posted a video on twitvid titled "...Secret Door..." in which she is playing a slow, calming piece on the harp.[2]

In a Spotify fan interview on July 18, 2012, Amy revealed the inspiration behind Secret Door:

Vin1.jpg I was having a recurrent dream. When I woke up every time all I could remember was this round door, overgrown with ivy and a really strong feeling of love- for something through the door. I wrote the song about love within a dream and the idea that reality is only the one you choose.[3] Vin2.jpg

Lyrics

Turn out the lights
Feed the fire 'til my soul breaks free
My heart is high as the waves above me
Don't need to understand
Too lost to lose

Don't fight my tears 'cause they feel so good
And I, I will remember how to fly
Unlock the heavens in my mind
Follow my love back through the same secret door

Look past the end
It's a dream as it's always been
All life lives on if we've ever loved it

And I, I will remember how to fly
Unlock the heavens in my mind
Follow my love back through the same secret door

I, I will remember how to fly
Unlock the heavens in my mind
Follow my love back through the same secret door
