A Soul Laid Bare: The Quest for Divine Purity

Delirious?'s song 'Investigate' is a heartfelt plea for spiritual cleansing and divine intervention. The lyrics express a deep yearning for God to examine the singer's life, to shine light on the darkest corners of their soul, and to purify them. This request for investigation is not just about scrutiny but about transformation, as the singer asks for their life to be recreated and aligned with divine will. The metaphor of an 'open book' suggests transparency and vulnerability, indicating a willingness to be fully known and understood by a higher power.

The recurring theme of flight in the chorus, with lines like 'Fly away, where heaven calls my name,' symbolizes a desire for transcendence and a longing to be closer to the divine. This imagery of flight and transformation underscores the transformative journey the singer wishes to undertake. The use of words like 'excavate' and 'recreate' further emphasizes the depth of this transformation, suggesting a thorough and profound change that goes beyond surface-level adjustments.

The song also touches on the omniscience of God, acknowledging that God knew the singer's life even before it began. This recognition of divine foreknowledge adds a layer of trust and surrender, as the singer believes that their life is part of a greater plan. The repeated commitment to praise 'always, my days' reflects a deep sense of gratitude and devotion, regardless of the trials faced. 'Investigate' is thus a powerful exploration of faith, transformation, and the quest for spiritual purity, wrapped in the evocative and emotive style characteristic of Delirious?'s music.
