Glitch

I am alive, but died ages ago

I have a body, but no soul

An undead cursed to scourge the earth.

.

I have glitched, I need a switch

I have twitched, I need a stitch.

.

I am told I am a cure

The answer to men impure

An emissary of the fallen.

.

I have glitched, I need a switch

I have twitched, I need a stitch.

.

I dipped my pinkie in the pool

I ignored consequences like a fool

So something reached out and dragged me in

Now I am down below, with no light within.

.

I have glitched, I need a switch

I have twitched, I need a stitch.

.

Like a robot I glitched, and something hidden came to light

They call it conscience, an enemy of vice.

I am now aware of my many sins

Conscious of my many deeds.

.

I have glitched, I need a switch

I have twitched, I need a stitch

.

I put a gun to my head, only a click and I’m dead

But yet again I awoke, as though I had slept and awoke

He said death for me is foregone, until my deal is done

A deal I’ve forgotten, I know not when it begun.

.

I have glitched, I need a switch

I have twitched, I need a stitch

.

Its a funny feeling to wish for death, and yet draw breath

I have sailed on the bloody sea, and beheld its fiery state

I now know hell awaits me, and I accept my just fate.

.

I have glitched, I need a switch

I have twitched, I need a stitch

.

I am as old as time

I only know what I am, not what I was

I would kill for an answer, if it would give me a taste of redemption

I would kill for an answer, if it would bring me salvation.

.

I have glitched, I need a switch.

I have twitched, I need a stitch

.
