about

2nd track from "Disaffector" EP. Released as a free online download in December 2012. Originally one of the first songs to be written after bassist Dill Tasker joined the band. It was seen as a surreal "prog-rock" departure from Toxins' usual musical style and previous releases. Unreleased "intro" to Important Message will be available on forthcoming album. The lyrics deal with feelings of disorientation and alienation from a corporatised world saturated by forceful media and advertising...

lyrics

Every following generation takes a little of our soul, as we live the degradation, through the riddle,
We are told lies - through bright lights, hypnotised - by their sound bites

Now I'm cast an aberration, couldn't cope within the mould, fallen weary from creation, searching hope but feel
Sold out - of young insight, I call out - for new foresight

But I feel so safe, as you invade my space, watch you kill me slowly

I'm decaying over years, I'm decaying over days, your omnipotence is burning, devastating,
Saying what I - am supposed to be, live my life - through state TV

I feel so safe, as you invade my space, watch you kill me slowly

You're missing from me, liberty - you were never there
You're missing from me, humanity - you were never there
(I do declare...)

I feel so safe, as you invade my space, watch you kill me slowly
