[Beyrodt / Cooper] See the fire that burns through people It's so strong and bright Was no error of human kindness Didn't turn out right In the ending the infinite danger Had nothing to do with my life That's when I realized that I was the stranger Watching the two worlds collide Welcome to the the empire of future This can't be for real Welcome to the empire of future You know it must be believed Welcome to the empire of future Its all things revealed Welcome to the empire of future It is forever the answer There were no lies brought to me back then I would have done no harm A skin that feels like a python that breathes A trail must be leaving it's mark Now he tells me that I will live to be old Fear comes over my system realizing The fortress of his hand will make you see more clearly In the ending the infinite danger Had nothing to do with my life That's when I realized that I was the stranger Watching the two worlds collide Welcome to the the empire of future This can't be for real Welcome to the empire of future You know it must be believed Welcome to the empire of future Its all things revealed Welcome to the empire of future It is forever the answer In place of secrets that are known If it weren't for grief There would be no blindness here If it weren't for me
