Banish from sanctuary

In deserts I was preaching

The hand of god was with me

Baptised with water and I praised

The one who came behind me

To save us all with the holy ghost

A prophet of the fools, I've been lost

I'm sure you're there wandering around

But do you care for me?

I'm alone

You talk of love not for me

In my dungeon cold I could think about

All the things you've said

But I can't understand your famous son

I left the way of heaven

Or did you lead me from it?

No, no turning back

I'm banished from sanctuary

The darkness in me is filling me with pain

There's no way to turn back for eternity

In shadows I'm walking and caught in loneliness

Deliverance I wait for, but how long?

Are you the one who should come?

Show me the light in you

Or should we wait for someone another?

No, no turning back

I'm banished from sanctuary

The darkness in me is filling me with pain

There's no way to turn back for eternity

Your reich should come to this world

Your way smoothed by my blood, friend

My might will decrease, but you'll get high

Yes so much higher

Be careful of the rats, friend

Cause they'll never sleep before they catch you

The blind can see the sun

Cripples walk alone

The deaf can hear my words

They believe, just believe

They believe in me

Look! The signs are near

To perform my task

To perform my way

To perform the way I walked

The way of the crucifix

I hear the hangman coming

I wait for execution

No, no turning back

I'm banished from sanctuary

The darkness in me is filling me with pain

There's no way to turn back for eternity

No, no turning back

I'm banished from sanctuary
