(Sound effects of echoing footsteps in an infinite hallway of books and an electrical hum) (Distorted voice with spacesuit echo): “Hey... who turned out the lights?” (Verse 1) We were looking for stories in the great Library, the data center where minds link and carry. But the silence weighs heavy, smelling of dust and fear, and the Tenth Doctor stops, bringing his hand near. "Count your shadows," he says in a clear, grave tone, if you have an extra one, death claims you as its own. Microscopic piranhas in the darkness of the air, the Vashta Nerada show no mercy anywhere. (Pre-Chorus) Don't step into the dark spots along the hall, keep the flashlight lit, don't let it fall. If the suit starts talking in a loop on its own, it means the flesh has faded, gone to the unknown... (Chorus) Hey! Who turned out the lights? A hollow cry echoing through the helmet's sights. Hey! Who turned out the lights? Flesh-eating shadowsHere is the English translation of the song, keeping the rhythm, imagery, and poetic tone of the original lyrics: (Intro) (Sound effects of echoing footsteps in an infinite hallway of books and an electrical hum) (Distorted voice with space-helmet echo): “Hey... who turned out the lights?” (Verse 1) We were looking for stories in the Great Library, the data center where the mind connects seamlessly. But the silence weighs heavy, something smells like dust and fear, and the Tenth Doctor stops as he points right here. "Count your shadows," he says with a clear and serious sound, if you have an extra one, death is gathering around. Microscopic piranhas in the darkness of the air, the Vashta Nerada show no mercy anywhere. (Pre-Chorus) Don't touch the dark areas down the hall, keep the flashlight lit in your pocket through it all. If the suit speaks by itself, repeating on loop, it means the flesh has met its demise in the suit... (Chorus) Hey! Who turned out the lights? A hollow scream echoing inside the helmet's sight. Hey! Who turned out the lights? Flesh-eating shadows, no light can shrink their might. The Doctor runs with his sonic in hand, fighting in the forest of the dead in this land. Stay in the light, don't take a step back, or into a wandering shadow you'll fade to black! (Verse 2) River Song keeps a diary of blue, with a written future that hasn't seen the sun or the view. She knows his name, she knows who he'll be, while empty suits walk around for all to see. They are not monsters of steel, they are forests on paper, trees turned into this cruel hellish vapor. The Doctor shouts his warning into the void so clear: "Look me up in your databases and feel the fear!" (Bridge) (Rhythm speeds up with dark synths and the sound of the Sonic Screwdriver) "Look me up... search for me in your database!" And the shadows fall back for just a second's grace, the Time Lord facing the end of time and space. But time is running out, the lights begin to flicker, River sacrifices herself so the truth shines quicker... Her consciousness saved in the stellar disc to stay, an ending where the shadows can no longer reach her way. (Chorus) Hey! Who turned out the lights? A hollow scream echoing inside the helmet's sight. Hey! Who turned out the lights? Flesh-eating shadows, no light can shrink their might. The Doctor runs with his sonic in hand, fighting in the forest of the dead in this land. Stay in the light, don't take a step back, or into a wandering shadow you'll fade to black! (Outro) (The sound of the TARDIS fading away in the distance) Two shadows on the floor... One... two... No... there are three. (Radio static and final whisper): “Hey... who turned out the lights?”
