Alessia Cara steps back into the spotlight with My House, her soulful contribution to the Nobody Wants This Season 2 soundtrack, out October 23 via Netflix and Interscope Records.
It’s been a minute since her last full drop, but this one feels like slipping into an old favorite sweater—warm, a little worn-in, and full of that quiet strength she’s always nailed. Tied to the show’s second season, which picks up the messy, heartfelt rom-com of Rachel and Noah navigating faith, family, and forbidden sparks, My House lands like the emotional anchor it needs. Think late-night confessions in a cluttered living room, where “home” isn’t just walls but the messy pull of someone who gets you.
Cara’s voice carries that signature blend of R&B introspection and pop lift, painting pictures of building something real amid the chaos: echoes of second chances, unpacked boxes, and the kind of love that turns a house into yours. From what teasers hint, it’s got those piano-driven swells building to a chorus that hits like a sigh of relief, perfect for the series’ blend of humor and heart. Coming off her 2023 single Nowhere Left to Go, this track shows she’s still the queen of turning personal aches into anthems that stick.
Fans have been clamoring for new music since her In the Rainbow Era EP, and early buzz on socials is calling it her most vulnerable yet—pair it with the season’s guest spots from the likes of FINNEAS and Role Model for a soundtrack that’s stacked.
With Nobody Wants This blowing up last year for its sharp take on modern romance, Season 2’s music feels like an extension of that vibe: raw, relatable, and ready to soundtrack your own tangled feelings. If Cara’s catalog has taught us anything, it’s that sometimes the best stories start right where you stand.
Dive into the MY HOUSE lyrics below and unpack its cozy ache. Don’t miss other Nobody Wants This Season 2 tracks for more of that rom-com glow.

Lyrics of My House by Alessia Cara
[Intro]
(Oh-ah, No No No No No)
(Ah)
[Verse 1]
He Was Like My Reflection, But I Always Turned Away
Gave All Of My Attention To Love That Led Me To Pain
Chasing Dead Ends Was The Game I Knew Best
‘Til I Surrendered And Who Would’ve Guessed?
[Chorus]
Now We Just Follow The Signs, Not The Rules
Me And My Guy On The Same Side, Oh-oh-oh
Yeah, That’s How It’s Supposed To Be
Just Think Of The Time That We Lose
If We Don’t Try, Jumping The Line
‘Cause I Used To Tell Him “No, No, No, No, No”
When He Asked Me Out
Then I Said “Fine, Let’s Go”
And He Never Left My House
[Verse 2]
He Gave Me Pretty Flowers, And I Gave Him Empty Threats
I Was Afraid Of Falling, But Now He’s My Safety Net
Chasing Dead Ends Was The Way I Survived
But If That’s How I’d Find Him, Then I’d Do It Twice
[Chorus]
Now We Just Follow The Signs, Not The Rules
Me And My Guy On The Same Side, Oh-oh-oh
Yeah, That’s How It’s Supposed To Be
Just Think Of The Time That We Lose
If We Don’t Try, Jumping The Line
‘Cause I Used To Tell Him “No, No, No, No, No” (No)
When He Asked Me Out
Then I Said “Fine, Let’s Go”
And He Never Left My House
[Bridge]
He’s Got All Of My Heart (Oh-ah, Ah)
And Half Of My Room (Me And My Guy On The Same Side)
He’s Lived In My Mind (Oh-ah, Ah)
Even Before I, Before I Ever Knew
[Chorus]
Now We Just Follow The Signs, Not The Rules
Me And My Guy On The Same Side, Oh-oh-oh
Yeah, That’s How It’s Supposed To Be
Just Think Of The Time That We Lose
If We Don’t Try, Jumping The Line
‘Cause I Used To Tell Him “No, No, No, No, No” (No, No)
When He Asked Me Out (Me Out)
Then I Said “Fine, Let’s Go”
And He Never Left My House
No, No, No, No, No (No, No)
When He Asked Me Out
Then I Said “Fine, Let’s Go”
And He Never Left My House
