"wrong side of the bed (live)" is a one take recording explores the change in perspective one experiences after losing contact with reality. Inspired by a personal experience, ALOYSE hopes to start a dialogue about these common but rarely discussed experiences.

LYRICS
verse
make me
look at your face in the morning 
while i cried the whole night through

make me wake up too late in the afternoon
i'm already late
i’m already looking for someone to blame

chorus
and i told you
you’re the best on for the job
i wrote my best song
on you bed long
before you were gone
before you were gone

verse
taste me
and spit it back out
in the backseat of car
you dropped me oh

crash me into the curve of the lips you tear
down like a sicko
asylum for your sore mouth 
drown me in your big brown eyes

chorus
and i told you
you’re the best one for the job
i wrote my best song
on you bed long
before you were gone
before you were gone

bridge
before you were gone
before you were gone
i can’t believe you are gone
i can’t believe you are gone

outro
wake me up for the job
that you chose to quit
i'm already late 
i’m already looking for someone to blame

best one for the job

best one for the job (demo)

this picture was taken during a corona lockdown. reflecting on my time during the pandemic, I've come to realise how easy it is to blame something else for the things I am unhappy about. introducing my new song, a reflection on how music has the power to transport us back in time while also igniting new beginnings. It's about embracing those moments where a song becomes your anthem for a fresh start. 

recorded in a concrete room with dubbed vocals and a bit of feedback hehe. i’m trying my best to not let perfectionism stop me from sharing. I hope you will do the same. Hope you like the song bYE

lyrics

verse
I took a walk just to feel like the world’s still there
saw a girl with the prettiest of death stares
reminds me of the days I can never get back
reminds me of 

chorus
you
nailing me to the board
a figure to deform
for all of them to see 
that you got the best of me

verse
I have a thing for a song with a big escape
like to scream to it 
and now I rewind 
to the end of the record there
is where I still feel

chorus
you
nailing me to the board
a figure to deform
for all of them to see 
that you got the best of me
the best of me

bridge
post flu aroma
it’s a bitter taste
but you’ll get used to it

post flu aroma
it’s a bitter taste
but you’ll get used to it

verse
I took a walk just to feel like the world’s still there
saw a girl with the prettiest of death stares
reminds me of the days I can never get back
reminds me of 
you
