[Verse]
Find table spaces
Say your social graces
Bow your head, they're pious here
But you and I, we're pioneers
We make our own rules
Our own room, no bias here
Let 'em sell what they are sellin'
There are no buyers here
So gather all the rebels now
We'll rebel rouse and sing aloud
We don't care what they say no way, no way
And we will leave the empty chairs
To those who say we can't sit there
We're fine all by ourselves

[Pre-Chorus]
So aye, we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin', we make our breaks, if you don't like our 808s
Then leave us alone, cause we don't need your policies
We have no apologies for being...

[Chorus]
Find me where the wild things are
We'll be alright
Don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are
We'll be just fine
Don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are

[Verse]
I lose my balance on these eggshells
You tell me to tread, I'd rather be a wild one instead
Don't wanna hang around the in crowd
The cool kids aren't cool to me
They're not cooler than we are

[Pre-Chorus]
So aye (aye), we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin', we make our breaks, if you don't like our 808s
Then (aye) leave us alone, cause we don't need your policies
We have no apologies for being...

[Chorus]
Find me where the wild things are
We'll be alright
Don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are
We'll be just fine
Don't mind us, yeah

[Bridge]
We will carve our place into time and space
We will find our way, or we'll make a way, say hey
Find you're great, don't you hide your face
And let it shine, shine, shine

[Pre-Chorus]
So aye (aye), we brought our drum and this is how we dance
No mistakin', we make our breaks, if you don't like our 808s
Then (aye) leave us alone, cause we don't need your policies
We have no apologies for being...

[Chorus]
Find me where the wild things are
We'll be alright
Don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are
We'll be just fine
Don't mind us, yeah
Find me where the wild things are

Alessia Caracciolo is a singer-songwriter from Brampton, Ontario, Canada. Upon the release of her first single, “Here”, she shortened her last name because it was “so long and spelled crazy.”

Cara started posting covers on her YouTube channel at the age of 13. She first started to gain popularity when she posted a cover of Justin Timberlake’s “Mirrors.” Soon after, her cover of The Neighbourhood’s “Sweater Weather” took off. These covers got her signed to EP Entertainment and later, Def Jam.

Her first single, “Here” premiered on The FADER on April 27th, 2015, and blew up soon after. Just four months later, the song racked up 18 million Spotify streams in addition to 4.5 million views on its official video.
