BLIND GUARDIAN LYRICS
"Banish From Sanctuary" (1989 Single)
1. Banish from Sanctuary
2. Hall of the King
1. Banish from Sanctuary
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
(Lead: André©
I left the way of heaven
or did you lead me from it
Ref.:
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!
Ref.: No...
(Solo: André ¯ Lead: Marcus / André©
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
(Lead: André©
2. Hall of the King
Alone I walk, hearing a voice
that's calling my name
no one should be here
take no one with you
god, why I didn't care
On through death take me away
to the place time will not fade
Colder than dead
darkness - eternity
but look out
A hundred thousand centuries
the sun had never seen
so near but so much too far
eternal place you know what's life
but cannot tell
I can never see you changing
but you look to me
time will never heal your wounds
but you're immortal
Hall of the King a vision of the end
Hall of the King don't cry for us
don't hear us calling
Oh watch out for me Hall of the light
my last sin
You find yourself
just take a look
to see you must open your eyes
like a hawk in the sky
a wonder that dies
don't ask me why
(Lead: André©
You're the birth and you're the end
you've been hurt but you're not dead
discovering you is what should never be
poisoned are our souls
and dark our hearts
ruins we've left to rule the world
destructive are our minds
it's much too late
(Solo: Kai / Harmony Lead: Kai)
Ref.: Hall...
