U.D.O

The Key

U.D.O


Sometimes I have this scary dream 
In my head 
Apocalyptic scenes 
It makes my instincts mad 

Surrounded by machinery 
The warheads never ever rest 
It's an untrustful century 
So open up 

You hold the key in your hand 
Unlock the door to the future 
You hold the key in your hand 
The end of all the torture 

And all the time I wake and scream 
Where's a lead 
Assassinated hopes 
They make my body bleed 

We're running out of energy 
How did we generate this mess 
Made ourselves the enemy 
So open up 

Nobody's there to help - we're just 
On our own 
The epidemics rage 
We rally to the call 

We're the leaders of our destiny 
It's the only other chance we've got 
Why are we unable mentally 
To open up 

You hold the key in your hand 
Never say no one told ya 
You hold the key in your hand 
I hope the message will reach ya
