[Verse 1]
There you go
One step out the door and you'll be gone
I know, I know
Here we are
One more conversation and you'll be gone
I know, I know
[Pre-Chorus]
So I stay quiet, I won't resist it
And I won't try to make you different
'Cause where you are is where I wanna be
[Chorus]
I'll go where the wild things are
I'll go where the wild things are
'Cause I'll follow you into the light and through the dark
I'll go where the wild things are
[Verse 2]
Understand
I'll take over parts of you
That you would rather hide
Take my hand
When all those complicated, messy thoughts
Come out of your head
[Pre-Chorus]
I know your thorns protect your roses
You let me in, the gates are open
That don't mean you can go runnin' out
[Chorus]
'Cause I'll go where the wild things are
I'll go where the wild things are
'Cause I'll follow you into the light and through the dark
I'll go where the wild things are
[Bridge]
Midnight, keep me waitin'
Hold on tight, I won't tame you
I love you
I love complicated
Don't mind, drive me crazy
I love you
[Chorus]
So I'll go where the wild things are
I'll go where the wild things are
And I'll follow you into the light and through the dark
I'll go where the wild things are

You know, there’s a lyric on my album in a song called “Wild Things” and it says ‘I know your thorns protect your roses’ and I guess the thorns are the things and the concepts that protect me from failing, or they protect me...
