Water Gates
[Underwater travel sounds + submarine hum]
[Verse 1]
The map pointed forward to a place unknown but somehow known
Kai guided steadily, voice calm through the ocean’s tone
We moved through the deep, lights cutting through the blue
Until a massive gate appeared, blocking the way through
A young mermaid swam forward, graceful, bright, and fair
Her name was Shelly, colors dancing in her hair
“May I please see your passes?” she asked with curious eyes
No one knew what she meant, confusion in surprise
[Pre-Chorus]
Shelly tilted her head, sensing something more
“Oh wait… you seem important — follow me to the door”
[Chorus — wondrous]
Water Gates
Blocking paths beneath the sea
Water Gates
Guarding what we cannot see
Shelly leads the way, a smile upon her face
Toward a hidden world… in this mysterious place
[Verse 2]
She explained the gates were built when the hand off began
The Sea King raised them to control the watery land
We followed her deeper, past the gate and into blue
A sea town appeared — Waterland, shining in the hue
Kai and Toes stayed close, watching everything with care
Timo felt the pull, something familiar in the air
Shelly swam beside him, glances soft and new
A spark of something growing… in the deep sea blue
[Pre-Chorus 2]
The town glowed ahead, a world we’d never known
A new chapter waiting… in the depths below
[Chorus — wondrous]
Water Gates
Blocking paths beneath the sea
Water Gates
Guarding what we cannot see
Shelly leads the way, a smile upon her face
Toward a hidden world… in this mysterious place
[Solo]
[Coda]
This place the called Water land seems familiar but not
There is air inside, like it was made to accomodate everyone
Not just those who live under the mysterious seas
But those who needs air to walk, to breathe
I look around and see all the creatures I have seen in books
Some I have never seen all giving me a curious look
Then Shelly tugs my arm with a gentle warmth
She looked at my eyes as if wanting to say more, but stopped
[Pre-Chorus 2]
A magical place below the unfamiliar seas
Our adventure stopped and here we are about to meet the king
[Chorus — wondrous]
Water Gates
Blocking paths beneath the sea
Water Gates
Guarding what we cannot see
Shelly leads the way, a smile upon her face
Toward a hidden world… in this mysterious place
[Outro]
Shelly says -
“Welcome to Waterland… the King awaits your name
The sea town shimmered…
A new path had begun.
[Outro — determined]
