It's just the main doors
Scotty needs to get open

Working up the nerve
To be able face my fears
The long road upwards
Fate gives all of us three teachers, three friends, three enemies, and three great loves in our lives. But these twelve are always disguised, and we never know which one is which until we've loved them, left them, or fought them.

The long road upwards
Is hard to climb, but safer
Than where I am now

Than where I am now,
far from the storm, seems better
Here my soul is warm

Spoiler: show
That was a tough one, Yastreb! I hope mine is up to the challenge! :)

And I see your point, JoB! Hopefully any lost key won't be accompanied by a key holder with the corresponding address, as I once saw...

Best to do, as seen above,
One door at a time

As long as you're certain that you lost the keys, that makes a difference. If you got pickpocketed, the thief could easily have followed you home (or wherever) to find out where to use the keys ...

(The German PO still has a special postage tarriff for "unpacked keys". That's mainly for hotels, though, so that when a guest accidentally takes keys along with a tag that states the hotel's name and city and calls them to know how to return it, they can answer "just drop it into the next post box".)

Fight monsters, and get treasure
What a boring game

It's mostly uneventful
It could have been worse

But we're hoping the saying
"It gets better"'s right.
