The Devil and Me

The creepy man behind the counter
offered me an extended warranty of life..

This once in a lifetime offer gave me pause
cause I am a perpetually skeptical type..

I asked the smooth talking salesman
if I could see his binding fine print..

He produced a contract quite elegant..

Brilliant in it's eternal simplicity..

So I signed a blood oath
on the crooked line that was dotted..

Now I roll on my timeline soulless
but to me the tradeoff ain't so bad
cause it's hard to miss
what you never really had..
