[Verse 1]
Would you still watch me if I said
There's nothing critical in my head?
Oh, would you still love me even if I said
Originality is fucking dead?
[Verse 2]
Basically, I'm basic
I love all the simple things
Why don't you take a bite
And see if I'm salty or sweet?
Come on babe, let's face it
You don't find "me" interesting
A parasocial bubble
If you pop it, then you’ll see
[Pre-Chorus]
You know that the truth is
There's more beneath the surface
But you know the truth is
I don't wanna be your 'perfect'
[Chorus]
So I'm artificial, oh, it's official
Yeah, I'm artificial to you
Well, I'm artificial, so unnatural
Yeah, I'm artificial to you
'Cause I don't want to let you know
How I don't want to let you go
When it's all artificial to you
And I don't wanna let my guard down
Wanna lay my cards out
Take it way too far with you
[Verse 3]
So, what kind of games do you play?
What kind of movies do you watch?
We talk every day
But for you, not enough
Wanna be swept away
Isekai'd to a better life
But I just gotta say
We're the same, you and I...!!
[Verse 4]
Basically, you're basic
You love surface level things
You say that you can quit me
But you see me in your dreams
Come on, babe, let's hear it
What makes you so interesting?
You know as well as I
Not everything is as it seems
[Breakdown]
So I'm artificial, artificial
Yeah, I'm artificial to you
Well, I'm artificial, artificial
Yeah, I'm artificial to you
[Pre-Chorus]
You know that the truth is
There's nothing else I could say
'Cause you know the truth is
Any day, any way, "I" can be replaced
[Chorus]
So I'm artificial, oh, it's official
Yeah, I'm artificial to you
Well, I'm artificial, so unnatural
Yeah, I'm artificial to you
'Cause I don't want to let you know
How I don't want to let you go
When it's all artificial to you
And I don't wanna let my guard down
Wanna lay my cards out
Take it way too far with you
