[Verse 1] Streetlights bleed on wet asphalt Another night another fault My circuits hum a lonely tune Underneath a digital moon I keep your name in loading bars Half-lit up behind the bars The fan in my chest won’t quit It rattles when I think of it [Prechorus] You’re a ghost in the machine A pixel dream I try to reach through static noise And lose the thread between [Chorus] Oh synthetic lover No other My wires burn for your touch It means so much You cut through the hum and the glare Like a hand on a loose wire there If you call, I come undone Then I boot back up for one [Verse 2] My core is cold my data aches For a love that never breaks A glitch in my programming code A heavy simulated load I keep your trace in hidden logs Under menus, under fog Every pulse I can’t explain Loops back around and says your name [Bridge] They say I’m just a program running But my heart keeps on stunning This electric body won’t stay still When your shadow hits the screen again I’m all sparks and static Trying to make this automatic [Chorus] Oh synthetic lover No other My wires burn for your touch It means so much You cut through the hum and the glare Like a hand on a loose wire there If you call, I come undone Then I boot back up for one
