The darkness hold creatures of ancient, of old,

They began the fear of the darkness untold,

Count the shadows and count your lives,

All too soon, one of you will die,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

But doctor, away you have never ran,

Run run, as fast as you can,

They are where the fear of the dark began,

Stay out of the shadows, we need more light,

But what happens when befalls the night?

Count the shadows and count the time,

For all too soon, one of you will die,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

But Doctor, away you have never ran,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

They are where the fear of the dark began,

Don't leave this place, there's no where to hide,

Beware of your suit, don't let them inside,

Count the shadows and count the signs,

All too soon, one of you will die,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

But Doctor, away you have never ran,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

They are where the fear of the dark began,

This fear is not an irrational fear,

Stay close to me, don't shed a tear,

Count the shadows and count the smiles,

For all too soon, one of you will die,

Run, run, as fast you can,

But Doctor, away you have never ran,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

They are where the fear of dark began,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

Drop everything, forget the plan,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

They are where the fear of the dark began,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

Be afraid, don't be any less than,

Run, run, as fast as you can,

The Vashta Nerada are where the fear of the dark began.
