The walls are high and you're inside; the doors are locked and barred
But do not fear confinement, take strength and don't grow hard
For all the lies can't keep you, from those that love you most
And when your term is over, the past will be a ghost
For you can sleep, your conscience clear and they will bear the guilt
And if they don't they'll rot in hell for the case that their lies built
Take heart in your own innocence, you know the man you are
Let no one tell you otherwise, your conscience clear by far
For lies breed guilt and they can't hide, it's with them all the time
Although they think they've won for now, they know they've done the crime
For one day you will show the world and you will clear your name
Then everyone will look at them as they bow their heads in shame
So next time someone tells you to talk about your crime
The answer that you'll give them is "this crime is theirs not mine"
