robot boy

I write my poems of platonic love
That end up shifting to romantic
It's algorithmic, I can fantasize
You're on my mind and understand it

You do everything right
Because
You're just a robot boy
That I programmed in my head
You're all that I enjoy
But you make me so upset
Don't wanna hear your voice
Or the sound waves that spell out your feelings
Just for you to forget

'Cause you don't know me
You think you're so sincere
You think you're built so well
But babe, I am an engineer
Wish you would hold me
You just stare blankly at my tears
You're just a robot boy
I've always been an engineer

I overcomplicate, over contemplate
Boy, you act so fake, so I just play it
Cool, but you see right through
Look like I almost blew it
So I come to terms with you
Glancing the other way

You're just a robot boy (you're just a robot boy)
That I programmed in my head
You're all that I enjoy (you're all that I enjoy)
But you make me so upset
Don't wanna hear your voice (don't wanna hear your voice)
Or the sound waves that spell out your feelings
Just for you to forget

'Cause you don't know me
You think you're so sincere
You think you're built so well
But babe, I am an engineer
Wish you would hold me
You just stare blankly at my tears
You're just a robot boy
I've always been an engineer

You're just a robot boy
I said I want you, still I can't complain
I've marked down every single outcome
And every single one
We don't last and I can't take it

'Cause you don't know me
You think you're so sincere
You think you're built so well
But babe, I am an engineer
Wish you would hold me
You just stare blankly at my tears
You're just a robot boy
I've always been an engineer
