storyteller

I WAS SITTING AT MY COMPUTER STARING AT THE SCREEN
WONDERING WHY I WAS SEEING WHAT I WAS SEEING

ALL BLUE AND PRETTY WITH THE WELCOME WORDS RIGHT THERE
NOT GOING FORWARD AS FAST AS I WOULD CARE

I HEAR THE MUSIC AND WAIT IN ANTICIPATION
MY PROGRAMS AREN’T LOADING, OH MY GOD…RETALIATION!!

I DIDN’T PAY ATTENTION TO ALL THE WARNING SIGNS
LITTLE THINGS SO SUBTLE I MUST HAVE BEEN BLIND

THE DESKTOP STUFF THAT WOULD DISAPPEAR AND VANISH
A TROJAN, A VIRUS, A SPY WOULD BE BANISHED

REBOOTING 20 TIMES OR MORE IN A DAY
THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A DEAD GIVEAWAY

FALSE MESSAGES THAT I AM IN SAFE MODE WHEN I KNOW I AM NOT
REBOOT, RESTART, RESTORES, WAY TO MANY TO COUNT

I GRAB THE WINDOWS CD, LOAD IT QUICKLY AND PRAY
THE SCREEN GOES TO WINDOWS, OH GOOD I MAY HAVE SAVED THE DAY

I SEE A MESSAGE THAT IN 39 MINUTES IT WILL BE RUNNING RIGHT
I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING VERY WRONG, WHEN 39 MINUTES
TURNED INTO THE NIGHT

SAYING TO MYSELF THIS ISN’T HAPPENING, AS THE BLUE STARES DOWN
AT ME
I HAVE ALL THIS PROTECTION, YOU CAN’T BE SICK, IT JUST CAN’T BE

I TRIED TO GET IN THE BACKDOOR, IT WON’T OPEN FOR ME
IF I WERE A HACKER, OH HOW EASY IT WOULD BE

ENTER A COMMAND, JUST HIT THE KEY
AND UTTER THE WORDS “OPEN SESAME”

I KNOW I CAN FIX YOU, JUST LET ME IN TO TRY
NOT WANTING TO PAY SOMEONE, I HAVE A GOOD CRY

EVERYTHING I DO JUST SEEMS TO MAKE YOU WORSE
I GUESS I HAVE TO ADMIT IT YOU ARE BROKE AND ALSO CURSED

I SHUT YOU DOWN MY BEST FRIEND, I AM SAD TO SEE YOU BLANK
I WAIT FOR HOURS, OH HOW I WANT YOU BACK

HELP IS COMING THEY ARE ON THE WAY
NOTHING ELSE TO DO AT LEAST NOT TODAY
