Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mom leaves dishes in the sink
Dad says things I hate to think
My brother shouts, my sister cries
The whole house shakes with tired eyes
I keep my shoes by the door
Like maybe I can slip outdoors
But every room is full of rules
And every rule just cuts me too
[Pre-Chorus]
She texts me, "You around?"
My thumb just hovers down
I want to tell the truth
But truth feels like a wound
[Chorus]
I’m still behind this door
I’m still behind this door
I want to say your name
But I can’t say it anymore
I’m still behind this door
I’m still behind this door
You look at men like dawn
And I’m the one you’re not for
[Verse 2]
At school you laughed, your hand in mine
Just for a second, just in time
You said, "He’s cute," and I went red
I swallowed every word I had
My sister broke a plate last night
Said, "Stop telling her she’s not right"
My brother stood between the two
And I just watched the storm go through
[Pre-Chorus]
She asks me why I’m quiet
I say, "I’m tired, that’s all"
The truth is sitting on my tongue
Too heavy, too small
[Chorus]
I’m still behind this door
I’m still behind this door
I want to say your name
But I can’t say it anymore
I’m still behind this door
I’m still behind this door
You look at men like dawn
And I’m the one you’re not for
[Bridge]
If I come out, will they break?
Will they laugh, will they call me fake?
If I stay, I break in two
Either way, I lose you
My sister says, "Don’t bend so low"
My brother says, "One day you’ll go"
I hold that thought like a match
Small fire in my pocket
[Final Chorus]
I’m still behind this door
I’m still behind this door
I want to say your name
But I can’t say it anymore
I’m still behind this door
I’m still behind this door
You look at men like dawn
And I’m the one you’re not for
I’m still behind this door
(I’m still behind this door)
Maybe one day I’ll be more
(Maybe one day I’ll be more)

Style
Indie pop ballad with a steady mid-tempo pulse and soft kick-snare heartbeat; verse stays intimate with fingerpicked guitar, muted piano, and close-mic vocal, pre-chorus opens with rising strings and stacked harmonies, chorus lands on a wider drum pattern with a aching melodic hook. Add whispered doubles on secret lines, one-word delay throws on the title, and small ear-candy swells between phrases. Mix is warm, clear, and heartbreak-close.
