1. Armageddon FM
Goodmorning! You are tuned into Radio Active Armageddon FM, the station that brings you the nuclear hits!
It's Monday morning, it's pissing down with acid rain and it's much, much too early! So here's Toxik Karizma:
2. Polarized ´n´ Paralysed
Like an important bottlemessage
Washed up on a desert island
Trapped alone in his universe
Of words no one could understand
A drooling kid in a wheelchair
"The should lock that idiot up"
"The should have killed the creature at birth"
Was the judgement of the mob
Polarized and paralysed
A genius in disguise
Polarized and paralysed
And he opened our eyes
The stick attached to his headband
Made him look like a unicorn
His mother held and turned his head
So he could press the keys with his horn
Polarized and paralysed
A genius in disguise
Polarized and paralysed
And he opened our eyes
His universe is not his wheelchair
Behind his eyes Lucifer is confronting Christ
Small poems with cosmic dimensions
The radio as inspiration
A tumbledrier spinning with thoughts
A prisoner in isolation
Polarized and paralysed
A genius in disguise
Polarized and paralysed
And he opened our eyes
His universe is not his wheelchair
Behind his eyes Lucifer is confronting Christ
Feeling beastly nasty, many discuss me so -
Can he hear? Can he see?
Can fools fly? Evidently no!
(from the book "Dam-burst of Dreams" by Christopher Nolan)
So let us shower in your visions and words
Verbally we're of limited means
Let us travel through the landscape of your mind
Share with us yuor dam-burst of dreams
Polarized and paralysed
A genius in disguise
Polarized and paralysed
And he opened our eyes
His universe is not his wheelchair
Behind his eyes Lucifer is confronting Christ
3. My Friend The Fly
Rattling keys, nervous minds in their hole
Is it for me now or some other soul
Some poor bastard screaming in the corridor
I wish that you could help him, he can't take it anymore
My friend the fly
My friend the fly
Slow down now don't hustle with me man
The screws are not like us, they don't understand
Stares through the bars with unsteady eyes
As he tries to calm me down with his fake smile
My friend the fly
My friend the fly
What do you think, my inner shrink
Say- how do I feel today
I'm trapped alone without a key
To my misery
I'm the one with the clipped wings
In deep shit inside my cell
I'm the one caught in the web
Things you know so well
Day after day slowly slips away
The psychological feeling of balls and chains
The turnkey, he's the spider to me
Here I am climbing the walls, trying to get free
My friend the fly
My friend the fly
What do you think, my inner shrink
Say- how do I feel tonight
I'm trapped alone without a key
To my misery
I'm the one with the clipped wings
In deep shit inside my cell
I'm the one caught in the web
Things you know so well
Get me outta here
Accidentally I opened the window
My firend the fly disappeared into the sky
I recall I couldn't sleep at nighty
My life it changed instantly when you were out of sight
My friend the fly
My friend the fly
What do you think, my inner shrink
Say- how do I feel tonight
I'm trapped alone without a key
To my misery
I'm the one with the clipped wings
In deep shit inside my cell
I'm the one caught in the web
Things you know so well
Get me outta here
4. Circles
A circle drawn with greatest care
Protect my world and all in there
A howling wolf before my door
Warns of the raven "nevermore"
Fly upon the dragons back
Wander on the demons track
To Hades forth
To Hades forth
Into the black
The circle broken by a dream
Lets all gods and demons in
A battle on the edge of time
Will burn to shreds the weary mind
Fly upon the dragons back
Wander on the demons track
To Hades forth
To Hades forth
Into the black
Breaking bones and ripping fleash
Learning how to live through death
Broken on a wheel of life
To wisdom is the sacrifice
Fly upon the dragons back
Wander on the demons track
To Hades forth
To Hades forth
Into the black
The circle must be drawn again
Completed by the very dream
A battle on the edge of time
Will burn and purify the mind
Fly upon the dragons back
Wander on the demons track
To Hades forth
To Hades forth
Into the black
Into the black
Into the black
Into the black
Into the black
5. The Love Of God
They placed a cat among the pigeons
When they sent for the priest
To teach the young boys in the village
The Christian religion
Hail Mary
What a heavy load to carry
It ain't a priest wearing the gown
It's the beast
He was supposed to guide and protect them
So he gave them his love
Their parents never did them any good
They would just neglect them
It's no use running, it's no use running in his dreams
The priest is coming, and he wakes up as he screams
The little altarboy, he can't sleep at night
On guard by the window, he's so full of fright
The gun he's clutching, it is just a toy
He's so scared of the priest, this boy
And hurt by the love, the love of God
Hurt by the love, the love of God
For ten long years he's been molesting kids
Doing things God forbids
But he says it isn't any sin
The love of Gods flows though him
Hail Mary
What a heavy load to carry
It ain't a priest wearing the gown
It's the beast
The little altarboy, he can't sleep at night
On guard by the window, he's so full of fright
The gun he's clutching, it is just a toy
He's so scared of the priest, this boy
And hurt by the love, the love of God
Hurt by the love, the love of God
Hand in hand, into the forbidden land
He kept them warm at night
He taught the boys to obey and be kind
Then took them from behind
Hail Mary
What a heavy load to carry
It ain't a priest wearing the gown
It's the beast
The little altarboy, he can't sleep at night
On guard by the window, he's so full of fright
The gun he's clutching, it is just a toy
He's so scared of the priest, this boy
And hurt by the love, the love of God
Hurt by the love, the love of God
The God of love
6. Strange Messiah
Naked from the very start
And stripped down to a beating heart
Lost without a destiny
I scream in rage and agony
Heaven couldn't hold my wrath
In Hell I couldn't find my path
Fulfilment of a prophecy
I walk the Earth with both in me?
'Cos I'm your strange Messiah
I'll take your soul to make me whole
Riding Chaos through my time
Disrupted reasons, final crime
Pain and pleasure rules divine
I lost my path in Hell sometime
But I don't care and you don't mind
Look inside yourself and see
That what you find is really me
The reason for my ragin' ride
Was born in ancient deicide
The splitting of infinity
Placed life and death and gods in me
'Cos I'm your strange Messiah
I'll take your soul to make me whole
Riding Chaos through time
Disrupted reasons, final crime
Pain and pleasure rules divine
I lost my path in Hell sometime
But I don't care and you don't mind
Look inside yourself and see
That what you find is really me
Naked from the very start
And stripped down to a beating heart
I scream in rage and ecstacy
'Cos I'm your strange Messiah
I'll take your soul to make me whole
Riding Chaos through time
Disrupted reasons, final crime
Pain and pleasure rules divine
7. Ain´t It Sad
I was born by a virgin
My father was the Divine Light
Raised to turn the other cheek
But things didn't turn out quite right
I'm on fire, splitting the frames
Don't get too close, don't feed the flames
I can't hold back the growing rage
Backing out of this damn cage
Drill
For the thrill
Hear it humming
In your brain
Kill
Blood will spill
Feel me coming
Shooting pain
Sharpening the axe, changing my looks
I make my way into history books
Changing my name, quitting the rut
A chapter written in cold blood
Drill
For the thrill
Hear it humming
In your brain
Kill
Blood will spill
Feel me coming
Shooting pain
Again
Dad, ain't it sad?
Mum concieved scum
The hate is rising inside of me
Tonight I'll set it free
Pissing on Satan, fucking with God
A trail of victims left to rot
If I can't be lord of creation
I'll be the master of damnation
Drill
For the thrill
Hear it humming
In your brain
Kill
Blood will spill
Feel me coming
Shooting pain
8. 40 Seconds Later
This is a song of a brother
That left us too early without a goodbye
I cried like your father and mother
When the love you had missed surfaced when you died
It is a nightmare that will haunt me
For many years to come
I left you and 40 seconds later
You had left this world cold and numb
Alway nursing your depressions
Did the life in the fast lane drive you insane
A lie in a smokescreen dopecream
You said the age of decay indicated your time
It is a nightmare that will haunt me
For many years to come
I left you and 40 seconds later
You had left this world cold and numb
I
I wonder why
Why
You chose to die
Was it the demons inside of you
Or the eye of the needle that you went through
The answers will never unfold
The truth will never be told
Cause you gave up when it was time to fight or fly
So I guess this is goodbye
Whatever happened to the fighter
With your head in the gutter yo reached for the stars
The wild child finally became calm
A tattooed corpse with a needle in the arm
It is a nightmare that will haunt me
For many years to come
I left you and 40 seconds later
You had left this world cold and numb
I
I wonder why
Why
You chose to die
Was it the demons inside of you
Or the eye of the needle that you went through
The answers will never unfold
The truth will never be told
Cause you gave up when it was time to fight or fly
So I guess this is goodbye
This is a song of a brother
That left us too early without a goodbye
I cried like your father and mother
When the love you had missed surfaced when you died
It is a nightmare that will haunt me
For many years to come
I left you and 40 seconds later
You had left this world cold and numb
I
I wonder why
Why
You chose to die
Was it the demons inside of you
Or the eye of the needle that you went through
The answers will never unfold
The truth will never be told
Cause you gave up when it was time to fight or fly
So I guess this is goodbye
9. Playing With Magick
The setting is a darkened room
The candleflamed are dancing in the gloom
Susie's playing with her toys again
She's got herself a brand new friend
She's not like the other girls
Preoccupied in her own small world
There's some questions she needs to ask
And it's not an easy task
Susie plays with magick
When her parents are in bed
Locked up in the attic
She's talking to the dead
She began cutting class
Rushed home to the spirit of the glass
To hear the tales it would tell
Soon little Susie was under the spell
Susie plays with magick
When her parents are in bed
Locked up in the attic
She's talking to the dead
When the witch takes flight
She's made believe wrong is right
When the witch takes flight
She's just a puppet to the dark deeds if the night
She got the answers she longed to find
Lost souls messing with her mind
Now Susie's never gonna be the same
She can't stop playing the forbidden game
Susie plays with magick
When her parents are in bed
Locked up in the attic
She's talking to the dead
When the witch takes flight
She's made believe wrong is right
When the witch takes flight
She's just a puppet to the dark deeds if the night
Ouiji board
The girl can't quit the Ouiji board
The thrill is gone but now she's caught
Somebody else is in control
Somebody claims to have bought her soul
Susie plays with magick
When her parents are in bed
Locked up in the attic
She's talking to the dead
When the witch takes flight
She's made believe wrong is right
When the witch takes flight
She's just a puppet to the dark deeds if the night
10. Beyond The Breaking Point
I've gone beyond the breaking point
Nothing good, no right, no wrong
My eyes they stare, but I cannot see
I'm caught up in a fantasy
Spiral's going down this time
Falling off, no sky, no ground
Now life seem such a stupid lie
As I freeze and slowly die
I hear the bloody clansmen call
From blackened mirrors on the wall
Just to hide your tragedy
You shroud yourself in mystery
Got scars to prove that I'm alive
Living on, no pain, so long
No one will ever hear me cry
I travel through a burning sky
I hear the bloody clansmen call
From blackened mirrors on the wall
Just to hide your tragedy
You shroud yourself in mystery
I know - all the wisdom of prophets and seers
I've seen - the power of kings
It's all a fraud
To soothe our fears
It fades away
Like sinking dreams
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me who's the one to fall
Come-back of reality
Takes me from my sanity
I hear the bloody clansmen call
From blackened mirrors on the wall
Just to hide your tragedy
You shroud yourself in mystery
Depravity
I know - all the wisdom of prophets and seers
I've seen - the power of kings
It's all a fraud
To soothe our fears
It fades away
Like sinking dreams
I've gone beyond the breaking point
Nothing good, no right, no wrong
My eyes they stare, but I cannot see
I'm caught up in a fantasy
I hear the bloody clansmen call
From blackened mirrors on the wall
Just to hide your tragedy
You shroud yourself in mystery
I know - all the wisdom of prophets and seers
I've seen - the power of kings
It's all a fraud
To soothe our fears
It fades away
Like sinking dreams
11. Battered
Do you remember when your love
Was all that really mattered
Then suddenly your dreams were shattered
The day you were battered
You better keep it clean now
You better not be late
You better hide the kids now
Soon you'll be wearing shades
You realize the man in your life
Is the man with the knife
So baby stop your bitchin'
And get your all into the kitchen
You better keep it clean now
You better not be late
You better hide the kids now
Soon you'll be wearing shades
Home sweet home
Broken bone
Home sweet home
The danger zone
He's the one that never kisses you
When he's coming home from work
He's the one that says he loves you
When you give him the final jerk
You better keep it clean now
You better not be late
You better hide the kids now
Soon you'll be wearing shades
Home sweet home
Broken bone
Home sweet home
The danger zone
Passion for thrashing
Passion for thrashing
Passion for thrashing
Passion for thrashing
Domestic abuse is the game he'll choose
And the game you'll always loose
The lips he kissed are the lips he fists
His love is tearing you to bits
You better keep it clean now
You better not be late
You better hide the kids now
Soon you'll be wearing shades
Home sweet home
Broken bone
Home sweet home
The danger zone
12. Anywhere The Wind Blows
The sun is shining
But my mind is cloudy
We shadred shade and light
And you were my guiding light
The constant longing for you
It cuts me like a knife
Cos when I'm missing you
I missing the meaning of life
Anywhere the wind blows
I know that she knows
We'll be together in the end
Anywhere the wind blows
I know our love grows
And we'll be together in the end
We had our troubles
And we've had our fights
But when I'm thinking back
Everything it felt right
I often wonder, what went wrong
And now I understand
It's to you I belong
Anywhere the wind blows
I know that she knows
We'll be together in the end
Anywhere the wind blows
I know our love grows
And we'll be together in the end
One thing I know for sure
Though we both found somebody new
When I'm walking up that aisle
it's gonna be with you
It's written in the stars
That love will heal our scars
And we'll be together again
But darling, until then
Anywhere the wind blows
I know that she knows
We'll be together in the end
Anywhere the wind blows
I know our love grows
And we'll be together in the end
Anywhere the wind blows
I know that she knows
We'll be together in the end
Anywhere the wind blows
I know our love grows
And we'll be together in the end
