[Verse]
These days, I'm my own best friend
I make my bed to lay in it again
Don’t know who to trust
And no time of the month can justify this

[Chorus]
Blame it on the growing pains
Just blame it on the growing pains
Blame it on the growing pains
Or blame it on me?
Blame it on the growing pains
Just blame it on the growing pains
Blame it on the growing pains, yeah
Or blame it on me?
Just blame it on me?
Or do I blame it on me?

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.
