As I open up my eyes

I see a face I don't recognise

If the mirror tells the truth

Then who the hell am I?

I scan the surface high and low

I hear voices from above

Everything I can detect

Not a thing I will neglect

Countdown, I'm coming through

I'm the vengeance, I'm the danger

I'm the one, the 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 judgement bell will toll

I'll take back everything they stole

I'm the judge, the Hammer fall

Liberty and metal for all

Countdown, your time has come

I'm 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

Cannot rest until I found the master key

The master key of trust

In my mind, the arctic wind blows

Cannot sleep, I cannot rest

Before the dawn brings back the light

Light of day

Shadow empire, shadow empire

The rise of the machine

Shadow empire, shadow empire

They rise up from their graves

To steal our vivid dream
