Lyrics

Verse 1

I cross the void beyond the mind
The empty space that circles time
I see where others stumble blind
To seek a truth they never find
Eternal wisdom is my guide
I am the Doctor.

Verse 2

Through cosmic waste the TARDIS flies
To taste the secret source of life
A presence science can't deny
Exists within, outside, behind
The latitude of the human mind
I am the Doctor.

Verse 3

My voyage dissects the course of time
"Who knows," you say
But are you right?
Who searches deep to find the light
That glows so darkly in the night
Toward that point I guide my flight.

Verse 4

As fingers move to end mankind
Metallic teeth begin their grind
With sword of truth I turn to fight
The satanic powers of the night
Is your faith before your mind
Know me, Am I the Doctor?
