As I open up my eyes
I see a face I don't recognize
If the mirror tells the truth
Then who the hell am I?
I scan the surface I am low
What arises from above
Everything I can't detect
Not a thing I will deflect
Countdown, I'm coming through
And the vengeance, and the taker
And the one, that shining sun
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
The rise of the machine
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
They rise up from the graves, to steal our dreams
I see the world in infrared
Hear the voices of the dead
I'm half man and half machine
The essence of your dream
Soon the judgement bell will toll
We'll take back everything they stole
And then judge the hammer fall
Liberty and factor for all
Countdown, your time has come
And the vengeance, you're in danger
You're the one, let justice be done
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
The rise of the machine
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
They rise up from the graves, to steal our vivid dreams
In my heart there is always winter
Can not rest until I found the master key
The master key of trust
In my mind the arctic wind blows
Can not sleep I can not rest before the dawn brings back the light
Light of day
[Solo: Stefan]
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
The rise of the machine
Shadow Empire
Shadow Empire
They rise up from the graves, to steal our vivid dreams
