New Friends

[Intro]
Hey do you want to hand out wi-

[Verse 1]
I know your kind I've met you a hundred times before
And I'm still as exasperated when you present me with these nagging mental chores
Cause I've gotta tinker with my moral compass instead of having fun
And I've gotta linger where my cranial trunk is 'til one of us grows up

[Chorus]
I want to know you
Let me be your friend
Can't you show some compassion now and then
It might feel good if you gave it a chance
It might feel nice if you could understand

[Verse 2]
And it sucks I'm scared to see you and everyone I meet
I'm terrified of building bonds from latching on to fools and weird mentalities
I've got my guard up everywhere, a somewhat consistent state of fear
But I'd rather be afraid than sit and weed out snakes from my hair

[Chorus]
I want to know you
Let me be your friend
Can't you show some compassion now and then
It might feel good if you gave it a chance
It might feel nice if you could understand
