The Lyrics
While they might be more well known for the song 'Electric Blue' (As Icehouse), this eerie and unsettling tune was on their debut album 'Icehouse' (As Flowers). When a band name change was required, they took the title of this song. Usually this happens in the opposite way. This dirge like song is fitting for its topic.
We'll always hear about the lawless
As the survivors scream out 'Please'!
Something is broken in the lawless
That legislation can not ease
And Columbine became the new trend...
Virginia Tech cold anger shared...
What will it take for it to all end?
Because of a hollow feeling inside there
Waiting for the next assault; scared...
No law will ever stop the lawless
And evil lives inside the lawless
At least that's what the pundits say
The Second was some time ago
But how quickly senseless grows...
Don't you dare take our rights away!
But we still dream about a future...
where there's no violence from the past
Patch the holes inside our culture
So that we're human at last
I wish this would happen quite fast
No law will ever stop the lawless
We can't exterminate the lawless
Because at times, they're you and me...
I said 'All we can hope for now is progress'
Until we leave the violence behind us
and actually become humanity...
No law will ever stop the lawless
No law will ever stop the lawless
The lawless..
As the survivors scream out 'Please'!
Something is broken in the lawless
That legislation can not ease
And Columbine became the new trend...
Virginia Tech cold anger shared...
What will it take for it to all end?
Because of a hollow feeling inside there
Waiting for the next assault; scared...
No law will ever stop the lawless
And evil lives inside the lawless
At least that's what the pundits say
The Second was some time ago
But how quickly senseless grows...
Don't you dare take our rights away!
But we still dream about a future...
where there's no violence from the past
Patch the holes inside our culture
So that we're human at last
I wish this would happen quite fast
No law will ever stop the lawless
We can't exterminate the lawless
Because at times, they're you and me...
I said 'All we can hope for now is progress'
Until we leave the violence behind us
and actually become humanity...
No law will ever stop the lawless
No law will ever stop the lawless
The lawless..
