TWW4N: Finding Good Friends

"Hi, excuse me sir
Hi, yeah
Hi, I'm with University conducting a survey
On what a friend is to someone.
Would you mind participating in our survey?"

"No, not at all."

A friend is someone who's not afraid to tell you
That you’ve hurt their feelings
When you picked on them in front of all your other friends
But then again a friend is someone you can pick on
Knowing that its nothing personal
But just a way to make you laugh.

A friend is that guy or girl
Who wont tell you how to live
But make you question
What your doing with your life
Right?
Some friends are black
Some friends are white
All colors are alike to friends
Who understand that judging color isn’t right.

A friend, will share
A friend will care
A good friend will even spare
The last piece of their pie with the corner of their chair.

A friend will cook you soup
Rub your temples when you’re sick, under the weather
Sweating, puking, poopy down
And feeling dirty.

I got a friend who even traded me an eye
When I was scared of going blind
Just so we could see the sky together
And one time a friend of mine even sold his bike
Knowing that I had no money
At the time we walked together.

When I think about it
Friends are hard to come by.
What?
It seems that judgement
Always gets in the way of sunshine
And sunsets seen alone are way too difficult to describe
Especially when you assume things about them.

Assumptions that you make
About someone you think you know
But then you figure out
That they are nothing but a part of you
Projected through a point of view
That you assume as separate
So you think that you’re alone
And then you label it a friendship.

See a true friend is someone that you can use
As a tool to figure out things about yourself
A friend will listen
Truly listen
To whatever it is you’re trying to express
I guess that there is the byproduct of trust
The number one feature of a really good friend.

And yes of course
They’ll be days where you’re both stressed out
And you’ll take out anger on each other.
But it’s okay,
You’ll apologize for the mistakes you made
Make up and be there for one another.

So here we are,
me and you,
What is it we're suppose to do?
I don’t know,
Lets fly a kite,
Lets hitch a ride,
Lets find some food.

What's mine is yours,
I know you too,
Whats mine is yours,
I know me too,
Lets fight a war,
What? Fight a war?
Why not explore?
Alright dude,
sounds cool.

Good friends
aren’t too hard to find. (4x)

So you wanna figure out
If you have real friends
Just ask yourself this question.

If the world was coming to an end
Could you depend on your friends to help you
prevent it from ending?

[[hook]]
Good friends
aren’t too hard to find. (9x)
