A locked door to your light
Extinguished by a young life
The one you’re supposed to love
Taken by some young blood
To cry and to die, Escape life on the inside
A twisted compromise
In evil public eyes
Who gave you the power to seal someone’s fate
Who made you judge of human life
You send a man down for what he has done
Putting his fate to the knife
Summon a jury who don’t understand
Cut a deal for a guilty plea
So it follows him round for the rest of his days
Cos no one was willing to see
Eternity in hell
Is life inside this cell
Time will linger on
After life has gone
On the inside each day’s like a week
Each month another year
Telling the day by the hand of a watch
Trying to hold back the tears
A letter written by your shaking hand
To be read by candle light
The evil and horror of what you have done
Brings tears to her eyes in the night
Eternity in hell
Is life inside this cell
Time will linger on
After life has gone
Out on the outside you think to yourself
The sentence is over and done
But your mind is still twisted your conscience still sick
This hell has only begun
Each nightmare you have every way that you turn
You see the past written in stone
How will it be when you tell the world
Are you free or dying alone
Eternity in hell
Is life inside this cell
Time will linger on
After life has gone
