Lyrics

A shadow of myself, just who am I?

Scan horizons

A tragic mystery

You could've left me here, sealed inside the pod

No one would ever know

The Chaos Control

My true identity

The power that is me
We all danced in fire

Trapped in this machine

Don't know how long we've waited

As the Eggman's watching
We all danced in fire

Looking through a screen

Don't know how long we've waited

As the Eggman watches
With Rouge in the fight - electric vibes

Change surroundings

A jewel in history

A treasure disappears - as she goes

Miss her as we look away - and no one knows

This power is a key

This power changes me
We all danced in fire

Trapped in this machine

Don't know how long we've waited

As the Eggman's watching
We all danced in fire

Looking through the screen

Don't know how long we've waited

As the Eggman watches
Chaos Control

Chaos

Chaos

Chaos

Chaos

Chaos Control
Chaos Control

Chaos

Chaos

Chaos

Chaos

Chaos Control
E-123

You didn't know - now I'm going to show you

The power that is me

You tried to take me down - stop the show

Seems you've never tasted fear - or loss of control

The power lives in me

The power that is me
We all danced in fire

Trapped in this machine

Don't know how long we've waited

As the Eggman's watching
We all danced in fire

Looking through the screen

Don't know how long we've waited

As the Eggman watches
(ending electric noises)

Connection to Team

A shadow of myself, just who am I? - Shadow losing his memories.
Scan horizons - Shadow trying to get information about his past.
A tragic mystery - Shadow's supposed death at the end of Sonic Adventure 2.
You could have left me here, sealed inside the pod - Rouge finding the pod and accidentally releasing Shadow from suspended animation or Eggman freeing him from suspended animation in Sonic Adventure 2.
With Rouge in the fight, electric vibes - Rouge's ability to use Thunder Shoot.
A treasure disappears, as she goes - Rouge being a spy and international jewel thief.
E-123 - E-123 Omega.
You didn't know - now I'm gonna show you - Omega seeking revenge on Dr. Eggman for failing to realize his true potential.
You tried to take me down - stop the show - Omega trying to destroy Shadow when Rouge accidentally released him, or Omega being sealed in Shadow's prison by Dr. Eggman.
Seems you've never tasted fear - or loss of control - Omega not knowing about Shadow being the Ultimate Life Form and his powers or Omega being an inorganic member, as robots are stereotypically emotionless.
Chaos Control - Shadow's main ability.
We all danced in fire - Omega was trying to shoot Shadow or each member of the team has been in a life threatening situation (Rouge locked in a safe as Prison Island was about to explode; Shadow falling from space back to earth; Omega being shut down by Dr. Eggman before the events of the game)
Trapped in this machine - All three members of Team Dark having previously worked for Dr. Eggman, or Shadow's imprisonment inside the pod.
