Convict of the New Law Lyrics


The streets are strangled

All lips are drawn

Moved by hands

Of the enforced new thought

They dare not speak

Whilst uninserted

Lest they become

One of life’s deserted

Say goodbye, to your future and past

Live in shame, live your life as second-class

Avoiding the searchlight

They’re pointing the way

Crusading from fear

Of catching the stain

There’s never a trial

They always find guilt

Backstabbing is living

And blades are plunged to the hilt

Say goodbye, to your future and your past

Live in shame, live your life as second-class

One mistake, brings suffering forever-more

Now you waste, your new days, a convict of the new law
