作词 : Cans, Dronjak, Elmgren
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 high and low
What arises from above
Everything I can't detect
Not a thing I will neglect
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 their 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 judgment bell will toll
We'll take back everything they stole
I'm the judge, the hammer fall
Liberty and metal 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 their 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 their graves, to steal our vivid dreams
