25 to lyf

i was caught out by the rain last night
outside your window laying my soul bare
they arrested me for indecent exposure
because the raw explicitness of my core they said
would suck the innocence out of an unborn baby
they sat me down and tried to understand
how it had come to this
and i told them my guess was as good as theirs
all i knew was
one day i woke up
my firewalls breached
and my heart was gone
and suddenly the virus, love took over my system
i knew cause of the sudden pop ups of smiles
and random shutting down of default programs like self defense
 and i guess when i saw the signs
i should have reported the crime
but i tried to talk you out of it
 we reached a compromise
so when i tried to file a suit against you
they said they'd get me for aiding and abating
so i tried breach of contract instead
but none of the promises we made were legally binding
so i sued you for negligence and reckless endangerment
they said i was a willing accomplice in this
so i finally got you for emotional distress
but you got out on bail
you took out a restraining order on me
and i had to do something
so i tried to kill your memory
and they got me for attempted murder
1, 2, 3 ... 25 heartbeats in chains
a prisoner of your love
25 to life
