[Verse 1]
Late night, blue light
You’re there, lab coat and a sly smile
Talking like the room’s your kingdom
I’m just orbit in your trial
You roll your eyes, spin that key
Like the world is some small toy
Why’s my heart skip every time
You act bored, then flash that joy
[Chorus]
Madam Herta’s got me hooked, yeah, she don’t even care
Treats me like a little test, still I’m standing there
Run me through your theories, tear my logic down
I’ll be your favorite failure
If it keeps you around
Madam Herta’s got me hooked, and I like that sting
Every cold remark you drop
Feels just like a ring
[Verse 2]
You call me “interesting data”
Then forget my name mid-sentence
I laugh it off, play it cool
But inside, I’m losing presence
You pace, you rant, you calculate
Like love’s a bug in your design
But when your gaze lands on mine
Even chaos feels aligned
[Chorus]
Madam Herta’s got me hooked, yeah, she don’t even care
Treats me like a little test, still I’m standing there
Run me through your theories, tear my logic down
I’ll be your favorite failure
If it keeps you around
Madam Herta’s got me hooked, and I like that sting
Every cold remark you drop
Feels just like a ring
[Bridge]
Yeah, you got me in your archive (hey!)
Filed under “fool for you”
Running every little side quest
Just to be a closer view
Tell me I’m a glitch, I’ll stay
Tell me I’m redundant too
’Cause every time you press “discard”
I fall deeper into you (oh)
[Chorus]
Madam Herta’s got me hooked, yeah, she don’t even care
Treats me like a little test, still I’m standing there
Run me through your theories, tear my logic down
I’ll be your favorite failure
If it keeps you around
Madam Herta’s got me hooked, let ’em talk, let ’em stare
If love’s a faulty program
I’ll crash under your glare
Madam Herta’s got me hooked, yeah, I’ll play my part
You can keep your perfect mind
I’ll bring the beating heart
