In deserts I was preaching   The hand of God was with me   Baptized 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, you 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      Blind can see the sun, cripples walk alone   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, 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
