INVOCATOR LYRICS

1. Intro

[Instrumental]

2. Through The Flesh To The Soul

So sad to be leaving
A bitter loss to stay
Your smile is so mysterious
As night at last eat this day

I heard it on the radio
And I heard it from your mouth
Through the walls you told me
That we were heading south

Getting nowhere fast
Escaping in high speed
Don't forget my love
Your demons to feed
I had it here
Until you came
The final structure
A broken frame

Though the flesh to the soul

Nobody else to blame
A cancer of the mind
If you promise to stay here
I'm happy to go blind
Cold - like silver pennies on the eyes

As I rise with the sun
I know I won't
Come home or down

Getting nowhere fast...

[solo]

3. Writhe In Spit

Everywhere I see it
It's in every lost and dirty room
In every sparkling city
Beyond the lust and gloom

We all writhe in spit
To the sound of cracking whips
Like water to the thirsty
I lick the lies from your lips

I'll shine for you
I'll writhe for you
If you want me to
I'll die for you
As the sun sets
I know I'll be there somehow
Writhing in spit
Bleeding
Writhing in spit

Momentarily so delightful
With a scent of early fall
This self-induced slavery
Will mute your every call

We all writhe in spit
With the taste of sweet defeat
Like water to the thirsty
I lick the lies from your lips

I'll shine for you...

We all writhe in spit

[solo]

I'll shine for you...

4. On My Knees

Distortion
I'm twisting and turning wash off all my sins
Contortion
Forgive me, though I bear the cross on my wings

I loved and lied to be forgiven
Threw away the chance of being released by you
A fatal step - the words of desperation
So please forgive me, I'm on my knees

So heal me father
Though I don't deserve your grace
"...all is forgiven"

"Forgiven is not forgotten, Ill return your sins as an evil deed..."

Deception
I breathe in the guilt, I myself is to blame
Redemption
You're bound to forgive me again and again

My life reflects: It's misery
I'll have to end this failure of life I am
A giant step, though small for you
So please forgive me, I'm on my knees
I'm begging please

So heal me father...

Heal me father for I have sinned
Please forgive me - I'm on my knees
Heal me

[solo]

Culmination
So there I went into the hands of fate
Frustration
I trusted in you to take away the pain

So heal me father...

5. Flick It On

The second before jumping
The final weight on the trigger
It's the imp of the perverse
The moment before leaving

I was on my way
All strings were gone
I saw you there... didn't speak
I saw you there

So come on
Flick it on, flick it off
The inner switch
The ill switch
The killswitch
Flick it on, flick it off

The rush in red
Pushing, deafening
Don't try to reach what you can't grab
Don't try to hold what you can't trap

Just before leaving you
A little before dying
I heard somebody silently laugh
Near the bed where I was lying

So come on...

Don't try to hold what you can't grab!

[solo]

So come on...

6. Infatuated I Am (Speak To Me)

Your lips are violent, no one will win
I can tell it from the look in your eyes
From the smell of leather on your skin
Here it comes, sparkling, I'm on my knees

I guess you know lust from greed
Sadly it's in empty rooms that we all bleed

Speak to me!
In the language of the lovers
Speak to me!
The language of the dead

I'm silver spit, I'm a sitting target
You can tell it from the look in my eyes
Have you ever heard the sound of disappointment?
Here it comes
Infatuation is my only crime

I guess you know lust from greed...

Speak to me!
In the language of the lovers
Speak to me!
The language of the head

Who's gonna take me home but you?
Will there ever be another time?

[solo]

Speak to me!...

7. There Is No Savior

There is no saviour
Just the presence of your love
There is no saviour
Just a target for my grief

Miss you naked sleeping
Jesus be my man
I'll mirror in your eyes
Guess it's all I can

I'll cross deserts
To be with you
I'll climb mountains
To be with you

Wrote my name on the rocks
For you to see
What is your price?

There is no saviour
Just confinement within the words
There is no saviour
Just a target for my grief

I know you're out there somewhere
Want to be found
Can you see me out there?
Want to be found

I'll cross deserts...

[solo]

There is no saviour
Just the presence of your love
There is no saviour
Just a target for m y grief

Miss you naked sleeping...

I'll cross deserts...

8. The Chemistry Of Restlessness

Tice blue pearls
The terror of the kiss
You're the reason I'm high
Presence of guilt, the meaning of bliss

Forever enmeshed
So sweet this is
It's the chemistry of restlessness
A dream in bone white

Cyanide to the soul
This instant hunger
It's the chemistry of restlessness
All bound to the soil
The soil of the heart
I'll be there waiting for you
Will you come? Breathing you
I'm flying, searching...
It's a matter of seconds
A matter of years
I am, if just for now
A better man for your priceless smile

If not this what will make me last?
I take all the blame, after all I invited it in

Cyanide to the soul...

I'm falling, searching

[solo]

Cyanide to the soul...

9. Under The Skin

[solo]

I'm sorry for bringing you here
My voice just a futile sound
I'm the ceramic man
Who will love me when you're not around?
It's the fuel of the lonely hearts, and my stone cold hands

For days for hours, it's all right
It's under the skin, but it's all right
As long as I'm here
Who will love me when you're not around?
As long as I am here
Hard to come, hell to go

Under the skin it is - under the skin
It's under the sin - for you it's waiting

All made of clay, just try not to worry
Hollowed for the glory of today
If I don't make it back there...

Lift me up and take me home
Forgive me the things that I have done
I'm the ceramic man
Who will love me when you're not around?
Could not help it, I just want you

Under the skin it is - under the skin...

If I don't make it back there
I am sure you will understand

[solo]

Under the skin it is - under the skin...

All made of clay, just try not to worry
Hollowed for the glory of today
If I don't make it back there
I am sure you will understand
I did not mean to do it - you know its true!

10. Fire Cleanses All

Eyes wide open
Lost the smile that fits
Afraid to know the name
Of the emptiness behind the lids

With blood comes truth
I tell you fire cleanses all
How am I supposed to speak?
When I can't hear at all

Slippery
Are the rocks of perfection
And lonely the my hands
Shaking
Oh awake me from this trance

With blood comes truth...

I'm here
In panic
In pain
In command
Out inside in here

I'm here
Out of control
Out of body
Out of mind
Desperately in need for someone
Beyond the steel
Anxiously awaiting
Someone behind the wheel

With blood comes truth...

11. Sand Between The Teeth

Turn out the lights, but slow
In ice-cold cars we're waiting still
Waiting for the flow
I do my best within the given time

Maybe I'll get there within the given time
Maybe I'll get there without the given time
I see you, king of dirty streets
I'll wait for you, king of dirty sheets
The first love that I ever met
You're the end
The gun to my head

Sticks like burning rubber
Smells like lust and fear
It's pure unspoiled power
A beloved but rusty spear

Maybe I'll get there within the given time...

Sunrise
I'll die in and outside here
Sunrise
Burn my skin my smile
I know you'll take me here

[solo]

Grinds like sand between the teeth
Like sand between the mind
You tried so hard, but got so slow
Long lost friend, you'll end up blind

Maybe I'll get there within the given time...
