The Last Son of Gallifrey

Lyrics: Joshua Alexander Payne

“They used to call it the Shining World of the Seven Systems. And on the continent of Wild Endeavour, in

the mountains of Solace and Solitude, there stood the Citadel of the Time Lords. The oldest and most

mighty race in the universe. Looking down on the galaxies below, sworn never to interfere, only to

watch.”

The children of Gallifrey are taken from their homes at eight

Entered into the academy - initiation where they’ll learn the feats

Forced to look up upon the Schism, untempered with all of its wisdom

A gap in the fabric of reality, seen from far above

Raw power of time and space, children of the master race

Inspired or driven mad, the Seal of Rassilon is had

Survivor of the Time War, an unearthly child

Renegade of the Time Lords, you won’t change his way

Defender of the cosmos, of all species and race

A path of betterment, paved in His way

Rusted color with golden lakes, morning light an orange-red sky

Fields of red grass, silver leaves, snow capped mountains stretch endlessly

Outwards under the burning sky, The Time Lord of this world will fly

To watch with wonder and enjoyment, the worlds below with unlimited bliss

His chosen moniker, the Doctor, a sacred, solemn, and boundless vow

He will take it on himself, to see that all in need are helped

The last son of Gallifrey, the Doctor's his name

Travelling the galaxies, through stars up above

Savior of time and space, he takes to the skies

Alongside his TARDIS, with engines on high
