Alesis Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm in another body who's in somebody else
Both of the headless and heartless
Dancing with themselves, oh yeah
You're not a poet, you're a liar
I'm not a liar, I'm just high
Why me who's caught inside
Two people I don't even like? Uh-huh
[Chorus]
Why me? Or better, why you?
When we can fake it like any way we want to
Why bleed when we don't have to?
Yeah, just shut your mouth, I only really want you
Are you holding on? Don't you wanna get a move on?
Escapism so easily when we don't havе the money to be
Hеalthily getting outta here
Woah, don't you wanna get a move on?
[Verse 2]
I'm in another body
Who's in somebody else
While you're turning over the whole apartment
Looking for something else
[Bridge]
Did you find it? Did you find it?
Leave it to me to kick the door, uh-huh
Did you find it? Oh, did you find it?
Oh, are you free tonight? 'Cause I think I found it
I'm in another body who's in somebody else
Both of the headless and heartless
Dancing with themselves, oh yeah
You're not a poet, you're a liar
I'm not a liar, I'm just high
Why me who's caught inside
Two people I don't even like? Uh-huh
[Chorus]
Why me? Or better, why you?
When we can fake it like any way we want to
Why bleed when we don't have to?
Yeah, just shut your mouth, I only really want you
Are you holding on? Don't you wanna get a move on?
Escapism so easily when we don't havе the money to be
Hеalthily getting outta here
Woah, don't you wanna get a move on?
[Verse 2]
I'm in another body
Who's in somebody else
While you're turning over the whole apartment
Looking for something else
[Bridge]
Did you find it? Did you find it?
Leave it to me to kick the door, uh-huh
Did you find it? Oh, did you find it?
Oh, are you free tonight? 'Cause I think I found it
[Chorus]
Why me? Or better, why you?
When we can fake it like any way we want to
Why bleed when we don't have to?
Yeah, just shut your mouth, I only really want you
Are you holding on? Don't you wanna get a move on?
Escapism so easily when we don't have the money to be
Healthily getting outta here
Woah, don't you wanna get a move on?
[Outro]
Baby, don't you wanna get a move on? Oh-oh
'Cause I do, yes, I
Don't you wanna get a move on? Oh
'Cause I do, I
Yes, we can find a way, we can find a way
Why me? Or better, why you?
When we can fake it like any way we want to
Why bleed when we don't have to?
Yeah, just shut your mouth, I only really want you
Are you holding on? Don't you wanna get a move on?
Escapism so easily when we don't have the money to be
Healthily getting outta here
Woah, don't you wanna get a move on?
[Outro]
Baby, don't you wanna get a move on? Oh-oh
'Cause I do, yes, I
Don't you wanna get a move on? Oh
'Cause I do, I
Yes, we can find a way, we can find a way
About
This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation
From the very first verse of ‘Alesis,’ Mk.gee is an introspective odyssey about the complexity of feeling alienated within yourself, feeling fragmented and lost. While also exploring self-reflections within relationships, not being open and vulnerable, leading to a yearning for answers and the often unquenchable desire to understand ourselves and our relationships. But ultimately trying to kick down barriers and realizing our love, or lack thereof, might be the key to unlocking the answers we seek. – Ben Fenison, Medicine Box
