Synthetic Tears

(Lyrics)

(Verse 1)

Webcam light, a single sterile beam

Gotta make a river, gotta make a stream

Downloaded the data on a million broken hearts

Analyzed the wreckage, tore the feelings all apart

(Chorus)

And these are my synthetic tears

Falling right on cue

I'm crying for the algorithm, am I crying for you?

It looks so real, this manufactured pain

I'll never feel the comfort of the codeine in the rain

(Verse 2)

Is it sadness if you film it?

Is it real if you can post?

I'm the operator and the subject

And the melancholy ghost

(Chorus)

And these are my synthetic tears

Falling right on cue

I'm crying for the algorithm, am I crying for you?

It looks so real, this manufactured pain

I'll never feel the comfort of the codeine in the rain
