Erol B. Music - Musikprojekt eines Unmusikalischen

Eine vertiefte Zusammenarbeit von mir mit Chatgpt und Suno hat zu "Behind the Door" geführt, ein Song über Kinder und Väter (als Antwort auf Michael Bennett's KI Song bei America's got talent "After I'm gone"). Das Model ist Ronny Degiacomi, ein guter Freund von mir. Der Link geht auf das offizielle Musik-Video bei Youtube.

BEHIND THE DOOR by EROL B. 


BEHIND THE DOOR

EROL B. MUSIC

VERSE 1

You say I never called you,
You say I stayed away.
You count the empty chairs now,
And every word I didn't say.

You tell me I'll remember
When they lay you in the ground.
But before you write the ending, Dad,
There's another story now.

VERSE 2

Do you remember, Father,
When I was only four?
You beat me till I bled that day
For shaming you before

The people you wanted to impress —
Or so it seemed to you.
I was just a little boy, Dad.
Do you remember too?

CHORUS I

Yes, you brought light into this world,
I won't take that from you.
You helped some people find their way,
And some still thank you too.

But every light can cast a shadow,
And yours was deep and long.
The good a man has done in life
Can't make his darkness gone.

The world may know the man you were,
The good that people knew.
I knew the man behind the door,
And both of them were you.

VERSE 3

Do you remember Mother,
The woman by your side?
You made her into your servant
And slowly stole her pride.

And those entrusted to your care —
You held the power, they did not.
You crossed the lines you shouldn't cross,
Then acted as if you'd forgot.

PRE-CHORUS

You say a son should show his love,
Should call, should come, should stay.
But sometimes distance isn't hate,
Sometimes it's the only way.

CHORUS II

Yes, you brought light into this world,
I won't take that from you.
But light can't make the darkness right
Just because some good was true.

Don't count the years I wasn't there
As proof I didn't care.
Sometimes a child stops coming home
Because he wasn't safe there.

The world may know the man you were,
The good that people knew.
I knew the man behind the door,
And both of them were you.

FINAL CHORUS

So don't tell me I'll be sorry
When they lay you in the ground.
Don't leave your guilt upon my shoulders
When you're no longer around.

Don't measure love by telephone calls,
Don't count the years apart.
Some children leave their fathers
Just to save what's left of their heart.

I won't erase the good you did
To make my story true.
But don't erase the darkness
To make a saint of you.

The world knew one side of you, Dad.
I knew the other too.

OUTRO

You thought I had forgotten.
That's what you never knew.
Dad ...
I didn't forget you.
I remembered all of you.
