Lyrics
A wooden cup and a crown of thorns Will set up the stage for the cross I rent a room next door There is nothing more No further voices to hear I'll be free It doesn't matter anymore that someone's knocking at my door I've known it long before the Galilean's on the floor Shame on me, shame on me I'm a tool and nothing more I can feel it's getting nearer Images they'll turn out clearer Creeps in and out of your mind I'm destiny personified I know there's something more behind But is it truly justified To sacrifice, to crucify The rescue of the human kind Sadly sings destiny Sadly sings destiny "For ages I've been waiting Now spring is in the air Let it in" Sadly sings destiny Sadly sings destiny "For ages I've been waiting Now spring is in the air Let it in" (Solo: André Olbrich) I hear them howling hear them scream The raging mob turns mad it seems "The king's in town We need a crown" I think we all know how it ends "So we're not going to take it longer" So all I know is I don't care "So we're not going to take it longer" Now we are aware I can feel it's getting nearer Images they'll turn out clearer Creeps in and out of your mind I'm destiny personified I know there's something more behind But is it truly justified To sacrifice, to crucify The rescue of the human kind Sadly sings destiny Sadly sings destiny "For ages I've been waiting Now spring is in the air Let it in" Sadly sings destiny Sadly sings destiny "For ages I've been waiting Now spring is in the air Let it in" (Solo: André Olbrich) There I tie the ass There I tie the colt Begging for a last chance I hear the voices say "We get him home tonight and that's all you need to know" I'm alone So I can't stand it any longer And I don't want to see it all Nazarene, your vision will come true Will come true They'll get you I can feel it's getting nearer Images they'll turn out clearer Creeps in and out of your mind I'm destiny personified I know there's something more behind But is it truly justified To sacrifice, to crucify The rescue of the human kind Sadly sings destiny Sadly sings destiny "For ages I've been waiting Now spring is in the air Let it in" Sadly sings destiny Sadly sings destiny "For ages I've been waiting Now spring is in the air Let it in"
