The Sound of Drums Lyrics

Can you hear them?
They're coming
They're in the signal
They're in my head
Is it only me?
Am I the only one to be called?
This pounding in my ears
Is calling me to rule the world
Rule the universe
As the Master of your fates
Can you hear the drums?
Don't try to fight them, it's too late

Each Time Lord child
Approaches the eye
Forced to behold the vortex
To be inspired, or run
But as I gazed into
The vastness of time
I heard the sound of drums

Can you hear them?
They're coming
They're in the signal
They're in my head
(Can you hear them?
They're coming
They're in the signal
They're in my head)

In professor's guise
Oh Doctor, Doctor you have healed me
You Are Not Alone
It took you far too long to see me
Now I lay in your arms,
Mortally wounded in your care
I'll leave you here forever
Last of the Time Lords once again

Don't leave me now,
Think of all we've done together
Think of all the vanquished foes
Think of all that we could be
It would be hell for me,
Imprisoned here forever
with you
(Spoken:) No please, you've got to, (Please) we're the only ones left! Please, just regenerate!

(overlapping)

Can you hear them?
They're coming
They're in the signal
They're in my head

In my dreams they're calling,
and every waking moment
I hear the vortex calling
I hear the sound
The sound of drums
