On the songs: secret door
"When we stopped touring in the end
Of 2007, we were off, we
Were not doing anything, and I didn't
Have any plan i thought
' I want to learn a new instrument' I did
Classic piano many years growing
Up i was used
Having piano classes once a week, studying
Learning a piece once Evanescence was really
Happening, you know, i
Was out of high school and everything
I wasn't learning anymore i was writing
My own music and kind
Of working internally and I missed learning
You know it's cool when
You're learning 'cause
You feel like you get new ideas from that
You get better so I took harp lessons
For like a year and felt really good and
You know, I can't play a lot
I'm not an amazing harpist let's be
Honest! It's fun to be able
To do 'Secret Door' is the one song on the
Album that's really different it's
Just harp and orchestra
Basically it's like when you're in
A dream and there's this
Magical place and you wake up
And you don't want
To wake up and always trying
To get back into that
Same dream that was what it was inspired by"
