The Keeper by The Brandos Lyrics

I am the keeper of the old ways
And I remember the younger days
I look to the east for the risin' sun
And bow to the west when the day is done

I keep the love and I keep the hate
I keep the dignity and faith
I keep all the reasons why
So many millions have had to die
I keep the dreams and I keep the fears
I keep it all
I keep the tears

I remember the blackest night
Fiery torches our guiding light
We drove them screaming till all were gone
And danced our victory until the dawn

I keep the love and I keep the hate
I keep the dignity and faith
I keep all the reasons why
So many millions have had to die
I keep the dreams and I keep the fears
I keep it all
I keep the tears
Time will pass and times will change
Some things must always be the same
Though some have tried to turn away
They will again return one day

The day will come when I'll be cast in stone
And placed to guard the ancient throne
That lies within the musty hall
Where live our ways and memories all

I keep the love and I keep the hate
I keep the dignity and faith
I keep all the reasons why
So many millions have had to die
I keep the dreams and I keep the fears
I keep it all
I keep the tears
