to me where the wild things are is a place that exists in our minds.
Its a place of liberty and shamelessness.
It can take a split second or a lifetime to find it,
but once you do, you'll be free
[Verse]
F Am
Find table space to say your social graces
F Am
Bow your head, they're pious here, but you and I, we're pioneers
F Am G
We make our own rules, our own room, no bias here

F Am
We don't care what they say no way, no way
F Am G
And we will leave the empty chairs to those who say we can't sit there
G
We're fine all by ourselves
[Pre-Chorus]
F Am
So ay, we brought our drum and this is how we dance
F Am
No mistakin', we make our breaks, if you don't like our 808s

Then leave us alone, cause we don't need your policies
G
We have no apologies for being...

Aren't cool to me, they're not cooler than we are
[Pre-Chorus]

Theres a wild thing that exists in all of us.
It lives in our passions and the people we love,
and our self concious thoughts, our beliefs,
its even made a home in the darkest parts of us
but we cant be scared of it
we have to become it.
