Dead Pixel

[Verse 1]
Streetlight bleeds orange, a proxy in the rain,
Feel the subnet tremor, etching phantom pain.
Firewall's busted, watch the core unwind,
Left a digital footprint, nothing left to find.
Concrete cracks like circuits, history erased,
Every whispered data packet, rapidly misplaced.

[Chorus]
Glitched, the static hums, an echo in the dark,
Another dead pixel burning a lonely mark.
Can't patch this wound, the data's gone astray,
Watching the system breakdown, every single day.

[Verse 2]
Algorithm's hunger, it calculates the fall,
Watched the memory corrupt, ignored the silent call.
They track the IP, but my presence is a blur,
A DDoS attack, no one knows who I am, or who I were.
Latency spikes heavy, silence on the line,
A forgotten infrastructure, where the shadows intertwine.

[Bridge]
No bandwidth for comfort, just the kernel's dread,
This ghost in the machine, living in my head.
The encryption's breaking, seen the code unfold,
A narrative fragmented, stories left untold.

[Outro]
Just a flicker in the dark, then nothing at all.
The system's got a glitch, destined to fall.
