Better As a Machine
Ethan James Young
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
An eye is better than a camera Unless it's to recall you smiling at me (wish you were smiling at me) An ear is better than a microphone Unless it's to replay you flirting with me (wish you were flirting with me) My mind's great at remembering Until the memory's fake My body’s great at building Until I try to recreate Shortcomings outnumber my talents Since I make a lousy human being Existing is better in the flesh and bone Until you’re cut and start profusely bleeding Wish I were a man made out of metal Then I would be fine to take the beating I'd be much better So much better as a machine An eye is better than a camera Unless it's to delete pics of you walking away (Why are you walking away?) An ear is better than a microphone Unless it's to mute the echoes of what you say (Can still hear what you say) My mind's great at forgetting Until the memory holds Pain My body's great at fighting Until it’s you I try to eliminate Shortcomings outnumber my talents Since I make a lousy human being Existing is better in the flesh and bone Until you’re cut and start profusely bleeding Wish I were a man made out of metal Then I would be fine to take the beating I'd be much better So much better as a machine A mouth is better than a speaker Until it's trying to say I'm sorry (Wish I said that way sooner) I could say that you were always right If I was a prideless prototype A heart is good at keeping it's beat But terrible at controlling its feelings (I can’t control these feelings) A bad place to put all of your love But a good way to keep messing up Maybe I never meant to fall in love Since I am a lousy human being Some days I wish that I never met you Then there’d be no cuts profusely bleeding Wish I were a man made out of metal Then I would be fine to take the beating I'd be much better So much better as a machine
