Rest now, my warrior
Rest now, your hardship is over
Live!
Wake up!
Wake up
And let the cloak of life
Cling to your bones
Cling to your bones
Wake up!
Wake up!
Cling to your bones
Wake up!
Wake up!
I walked away from the last great time war
I marked the passing of the timelords
I saw the birth of the universe and I watched as time ran out
Moment by moment until nothing remained
No time, no space, just me!
I walked in universes where the laws of physics
Were devised by the mind of a mad man!
And I watched universes freeze and creations burn
I have seen things you wouldn’t believe
I have lost things you will never understand!
And I know things, secrets that must never be told
Knowledge that must never be spoken!
Knowledge that will make parasite gods blaze
So come on then!
Take it!
Take it all baby!
Have it!
You have it all!
