Discover the story of the song > Wherever I Live – Alessia Cara

The protagonist of the song is staying in a hotel room by herself. She can hear noises and a knocking sound, making her think that the place is haunted. Her phone is not working because the outlet is broken, so she feels alone and disconnected. She thinks about calling her mom but instead hangs up her stray hairs on the shower wall. She wonders why she is thinking strange thoughts. She feels like she is going crazy. The toilet is rusty and she doesn't trust the food that was delivered to her. Despite all of this, she has learned to love being alone and has found a sense of independence. She realizes that she can make a home wherever she goes.
