The Keepers of the Tide [Intro] Before the sea... Before the moon... There came a whisper That would return... [Verse 1] Hidden beneath forgotten stone, Stands an order still unknown. Silent halls and ancient fire, Guarding one forbidden choir. Every page and every seal, Hide a truth they must conceal. Older than the stars above, Older than the gods we love. [Pre-Chorus] Never speak The hidden name. Every echo Feeds the flame. [Chorus] Keepers... Watching through the endless years. Keepers... Guardians of forgotten fears. Lock the door. Hide the key. Never wake What sleeps beneath the sea. [Verse 2] Maps are burned before they're read, Every path is marked with dead. Silver circles, iron chains, Hold the silence, bind the waves. Deep below the ocean floor, Something knocks upon the door. Not with anger... Not with hate... Only patience... Only wait. [Pre-Chorus] Every tide Returns again. Every secret Finds its end. [Chorus] Keepers... Watching through the endless years. Keepers... Guardians of forgotten fears. Lock the door. Hide the key. Never wake What sleeps beneath the sea. [Bridge] If the lantern Burns in green... If the bells Are never seen... If the candles Lean as one... Then the final age Has begun. One will come To break the seal. One will hear What none should hear. She will walk Between the dead... And answer When the ocean calls. [Final Chorus] Keepers... We have failed the ancient vow. Keepers... No one can protect us now. From the deep... A voice will rise. From the dark... It claims the skies. Keepers... The tide remembers all. [Ritual Outro] The sea is dreaming... The door is breathing... Someone... Is listening... Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu... R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn... The tide remembers... The Keeper has arrived... The light has been kindled... The seal is broken... The deep remembers our names... And the ocean... answers.
