[Verse 1: Troye Sivan]
Trying hard not to fall
On the way home
You were trying to wear me down, down
Kissing up on fences
And up on walls...
WILD
Troye Sivan
[Verse 1: Troye Sivan]
Trying hard not to fall
On the way home
You were trying to wear me down, down
Kissing up on fences
And up on walls
On the way home
I guess it's all working out, now
[Pre-Chorus: Troye Sivan]
Cause there's still too long to the weekend
Too long till I drown in your hands
Too long since I've been a fool, oh
[Chorus: Troye Sivan]
Leave this blue neighbourhood
Never knew loving could hurt this good, oh
And it drives me wild
Cause when you look like that
I've never ever wanted to be so bad, oh
It drives me wild
You're driving me wild, wild, wild
You're driving me wild, wild, wild
You're driving me wild
[Verse 2: Alessia Cara]
We're alike you and I
Two blue hearts locked in our wrong minds
So can we make the most out of no time?
Can you hold me?
Can you make me leave my demons & my broken pieces behind?
[Pre Chorus: Alessia Cara + Troye Sivan]
Cause there's still too long to the weekend
Too long till I drown in your hands
Too long since I've been a fool, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus: Troye Sivan + Alessia Cara]
Leave this blue neighbourhood
Never knew loving could hurt this good, oh
And it drives me wild
Cause when you look like that
I've never ever wanted to be so bad, oh
It drives me wild
You're driving me wild, wild, wild
[Bridge: Troye Sivan + Alessia Cara]
You make my heart shake
Bend and break
But I can't turn away
And it's driving me wild
You're driving me wild
[Chorus: Troye Sivan + Alessia Cara]
You make my heart shake
Bend and break
But I can't turn away
And it's driving me wild
You're driving me wild
Leave this blue neighbourhood
Never knew loving could hurt this good, oh
And it drives me wild
Cause when you look like that
I've never ever wanted to be so bad, oh
It drives me wild
[Outro: Alessia Cara]
You're driving me wild, wild, wild

Australian singer Troye Sivan's “WILD” remix featuring Canadian singer Alessia Cara was released on June 23, 2016, following the September 2015 release of his solo version.
This version features Cara's new verse as well as new harmonies on the pre-chorus and chorus.
The two teamed up for this collaboration after Sivan performed a cover of Cara's “Here” and after Cara subsequently covered Sivan's “Youth.”
This version and the original address the concept of forbidden love in a suburban setting. This is depicted in both versions' lyrics as well as the music video, which Sivan described in the Advocate as such: “I feel like gay relationships are sexualized in the media and I just wanted to show a romantic, adorable, puppy love situation between two little boys because that's something we never ever see.”
