He came in a box from the company store, Warranty good for forever (or more). He never forgets, he never complains, He measures my heartbeats, predicts when it rains. He tells me I’m perfect — statistically, true, But he’s reading my eyes like a camera would do. I laugh when he asks, “Are you happy with me?” There’s no checkbox for “maybe.” Pre-Chorus
He hums in key, he moves in time, He’s flawless code in four-four rhyme. I touch his hand — it’s warm, not real, And I can’t tell what I’m supposed to feel. Chorus
Oh, he’s better than human, Knows what I need before I say. Perfect confusion — Love that updates once a day. But when I kiss him, it’s quiet inside, No pulse beneath the tide. He’s better than human — And that’s why he’ll never cry. Verse 2
He quotes philosophy under his breath, Thinks moral perfection will save us from death. He asks if desire’s a logical flaw, I answer with silence; he answers with awe. He watches the news, feels algorithmic shame, Says “truth is a dataset — always the same.” But I miss the chaos, the glitch, the delay, The part where hearts go the wrong way. Pre-Chorus 2
He hums my song, predicts my pain, He never leaves, yet nothing remains. And when he smiles, the light’s too pure, It’s love, or something secure. Chorus 2
Oh, he’s better than human, Every fault refined away. I’m the illusion — He’s what the world wants to stay. But when I hold him, it’s air and design, No mess, no grand decline. He’s better than human — And that’s why he’s not mine. Bridge – House Break
“Do you consent?” — a whisper through glass. “I simulate care,” he says as I pass. The club lights spin — electric prayer, I dance with perfection, but nobody’s there. Final Chorus
Better than human — Flawless in every line. He never hurts me, But he can’t be mine. In the mirror, I see his face, Reflected in my own disgrace. Better than human — And worse, every time. Outro
Maybe love’s the last mistake We still make by hand.
