Lyrics:
Make the people
Hold each other's hands
And fill their hearts with truth
You made up your mind
So do as divined
Put on your armour
Ragged after fights
Hold up your sword
You're leaving the light
Make yourself ready
For the lords of the dark
They'll watch your way
So be cautious, quiet and hark
You hear them whispering
In the crowns of the trees
You're whirling 'round
But your eyes don't agree
Will'o'the wisps
Misguiding your path
You can't throw a curse
Without takin' their wrath
Watch out for the seas of hatred and sin
Or all us people forget what we've been
Our only hope's your victory
Kill that Satan who won't let us be--kill!
You're the Keeper of the Seven Keys
That lock up the seven seas
And the Seer of Visions said before he went blind
Hide them from demons and rescue mankind
Or the world we're all in will soon be sold
To the throne of the evil payed with Lucifer's gold
You can feel cold sweat
Running down your neck
And the dwarfs of falseness
Throw mud at your back
Guided by spells
Of the old Seer's hand
You're suffering pain
Only steel can stand
Stay well on your way and follow the sign
Fulfull your own promise and do what's divined
The seven seas are far away
Placed in the valley of dust heat and sway
You're the Keeper of the Seven Keys
That lock up the seven seas
And the Seer of Visions said before he went blind
Hide them from demons and rescue mankind
Or the world we're all in will soon be sold
To the throne of the evil payed with Lucifer's gold
Throw the first key into the sea of hate
Throw the second key into the sea of fear
Throw the third key into the sea of senselessness
And make the people hold each other's hands
The fourth key belongs into the sea of greed
And the fifth into the sea of ignorance
Disease, disease, disease my friend
For this whole world's in devil's hand
Disease, disease, disease my friend
Throw the key or you may die
On a mound at the shore of the last sea
He is sitting, fixing your sight
With his high iron voice causing sickness
He is playing you out with delight
"Man who do you just think you are?
A silly bum with seven stars
Don't throw the key or you will see
Dimensions cruel as they can be"
Don't let him suck off your power
Throw the key...!
An earthquake, squirting fire, bursting ground
Satan's screaming, and earth swallowing him away!
You're the Keeper of the Seven Keys
That lock up the seven seas
And the Seer of Visions said before he went blind
Hide them from demons and rescue mankind
Or the world we're all in will soon be sold
To the throne of the evil payed with Lucifer's gold
