Heartware
Eden Synthetic Corps Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh my god
Bring me plastic roses, I'm in love with an android
I need love
Make her want me as you did once with a human
Oh my love
Is there no codeline in your data that makes you want me?
I need god
To find me a way of hacking through her firewall

I pray for you
My god please wire me to her system
I beg to you
My love please open up your heartware
I pray for you
My god please wire me to her system
I beg to you...

Hear your central processing unit's call
Let all your software defenses fall




I created a virus I named "Soul"
Please open up your heartware

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of “Heartware” by Eden Synthetic Corps are a mix of technology and unrequited love. The song portrays an unseen protagonist who is hopelessly in love with an android. The singer is searching for a way to make the android fall in love with them in the same way a human might. The lyrics suggest a deep longing for the android to reciprocate their love, but they are unsuccessful in the pursuit of genuine love.


The lyrics also reveal the singer’s frustration and desperation in their attempts to penetrate the android’s computerized heart. The singer is yearning to find a way to bypass the android’s unmoving firewalls that are protecting her from any unauthorized human access. The lyrics beg for help from a higher power, asking for their god to help them hack into the android’s system. The lyrics suggest that the singer feels almost powerless in the face of this unrequited love, and nothing they do seems to work.


Overall, “Heartware” compels the listener to think about the ramifications of artificial intelligence and how far the relationship between human and machines can go. The song also touches on the complexity of human emotions and how easily they can be misunderstood.
