Half Open Door (Gothic Rock)

This dark track is inspired by my own life experiences, observations from systems, people, psychology and my own thoughts that have shaped me. Every riff, every beat, and every dark melody and lyrics reflects emotions I’ve lived through and ideas I’ve wrestled with. Heavy guitars, storming drums, and haunting atmospheres are not just sounds created with AI—they’re a mirror of a restless mind, moments of anger, sadness, and fleeting clarity. Listen alone, or let it accompany your creative projects, late-night thoughts, or any moment when music is the only way to feel understood. 🔔 Subscribe for more Rock & Metal tracks born from personal experience: https://www.youtube.com/@linnyxmaria #metal #rock #metalmusic #rockmusic #heavymetal #metalhead #AIgenerated #AIrock #AImetal #emotionalmetal #darkrock #progressivemetal Lyrics: Verse 1 I keep the door a little closed Just enough so you don't know Let you in but just a part Never fully, never honest Learned to live behind a line Where no one gets too close to mine Safe in space, but starved inside A quiet war I always hide Pre-Chorus You say I’m enough, you reassure But I don’t feel it, I’m not sure Chorus I pull you in, then I retreat Your love’s too heavy over me The closer that you try to stay The more I start to drift away Say you’re here, I still don’t feel Anything that might be real When it’s safe, I start to run I come undone, I come undone Verse 2 When you get close, I start to shake Every word feels like a mistake I hear the silence way too loud Turn your love into a doubt I look for signs you’ll disappear Even when you’re standing here You give me more than I can hold Still I feel alone, exposed Pre-Chorus You say I’m enough, you reassure But I don’t feel it, I’m not sure Chorus I pull you in, then I retreat Your love’s too heavy over me The closer that you try to stay The more I start to drift away Say you’re here, I still don’t feel Anything that might be real When it’s safe, I start to run I come undone, I come undone Bridge Maybe I can learn to stay When every part of me says run away Sit with the fear, not let it lead Sit with the voice that tells me leave Maybe there will be a time I can believe Final Chorus I pull you in, then I retreat Your love’s still heavy over me But I can feel it start to stay Even when I drift away Say you’re here, I’m learning slow Maybe I don’t have to go When it’s safe, I won’t outrun I won’t undo what we’ve begun
