Lyrics of Seven Silver Keys by Candlemass

verse

You′re hiding in your hall
Alone with your hunger
Can't break through the wall of the prison within
No reason to be proud, don′t go so near it
You bow your head in shame
Afraid you will fear it

chorus

Open up your dreams
Seven silver keys
To open up your dreams
You need seven silver keys

verse

A war against yourself
You win or you lose here
Something new to fear or nothing to do
Paradise hotel, bombs in your cellar
Mr clean'n'safe, your governor of hell

chorus

Open up your dreams
Seven silver keys
To open up your dreams
You need seven silver keys

verse

The vultures of the mind
The vampire guerilla
Invite the underground
Give in to yourself
Let loose the hounds of Hades
That means you can kill her
Unlock the secret wells
Your life can begin

chorus

Open up your dreams
Seven silver keys
To open up your dreams
You need seven silver keys
Open up your dreams
Seven silver keys
To open up your dreams
You need seven silver keys
Writer(s): Leif Edling
