[Verse 1: Alfie Templeman]
I like being sad
It's the bestest friend I've ever had
Oh, it's the only one that's always there
And it's the only one that seems to care
[Chorus: Alfie Templeman]
My best friend is a killer in disguise
She'll show you things you've never seen
You won't believe your eyes
My best friend has a lot to say 'bout you
[Verse 2: Alfie Templeman]
I like getting down
Well, he always comes around
And listens to the sound
Of my voice
[Chorus: Alfie Templeman]
My best friend is a killer in disguise
She'll show you things you've never seen
You won't believe your eyes
My best friend has a lot to say 'bout you
[Verse 3: Coach Party]
I can stick around
I can hold you when you're down
Can you feel me in your veins?
Will you free me?
[Chorus: Both]
My best friend is a killer in disguise
She'll show you things you've never seen
You won't believe your eyes
My best friend has a lot to say 'bout you
[Verse 4: Alfie Templeman]
She's a killer and she don't care
They say that she can take you anywhere
She's your partner in your crimes
It's so good to know that she is mine
[Chorus: Both]
My best friend is a killer in disguise
She'll show you things you've never seen
You won't believe your eyes
My best friend has a lot to say 'bout you
My best friend is a killer in disguise
She'll show you things you've never seen
You won't believe your eyes
My best friend has a lot to say 'bout you

It’s about depression and sadness being the only thing that’s always there for you, as if it’s the only thing that really sticks around and lurks behind everything you do. It’s as if these feelings are the closest thing to you, like your best friend.
