I came across this whilst looking for something else.

The judge and the jury
Had to put me away
Safe with the madness
Running loose in my brain

I'm here now for good
No release for this soul
Life means life
No hope of parole

No bars or walls
In this prison of mine
No locked doors
It's all in my mind

In my solitary confinement
I'm kept free from pain
Away from society
Safe but insane

I'm my own prisoner
While I'm doing my time
And time ain't forever
When living's your crime

Once there was a darkness
Deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had
Ahhhhhh you gave me light
