"Friends Like This" lyrics

"Friends Like This"

How am I supposed to make friends like this?
How am I supposed to make friends like this?
When we only connect like this?
How am I supposed to make
How am I supposed to make

Spending all day on my phone
Am I in prison or am I just home?

Might bleach my hair
Might shave it off
Might call my ex or even his mom
Drive to the beach but stay in my car

How am I supposed to make friends like this?
How am I supposed to make friends like this?
When we only connect like this?
How am I supposed to make
How am I supposed to make

How am I supposed to have fun like this?
At a party of one like this?
How am I supposed to make friends like this?
How am I supposed to make
How am I supposed to make

So boring staring at these walls
It feels like my whole life has been put on pause

Might start a cult
That could be sick
Is golf kinda cool
Or did I lose my grip?
Might take a trip
But just to my fridge, ugh

How am I supposed to make friends like this?
How am I supposed to make friends like this?
When we only connect like this?
How am I supposed to make
How am I supposed to make

How am I supposed to have fun like this?
At a party of one like this?
How am I supposed to make friends like this?
How am I supposed to make
How am I supposed to make

Friends like
How am I supposed to make friends like
'Posed to make friends like
'Posed to make friends like (Friends like this, friends like this)

Friends like
How am I supposed to make friends like (Friends like this, friends like this)
'Posed to make friends like
'Posed to make friends like (Friends like this, friends like this)

How am I supposed to make friends like this? (How am I supposed to make friends?)
How am I supposed to make friends like this? (How am I supposed to make friends?)
When we only connect like this (Connect, connect, connect)
How am I supposed to make
How am I supposed to make

How am I supposed to have fun like this (Fun like this)
At a party of one like this (One like this)
How am I supposed to make friends like this (Friends like this)
How am I supposed to make
How am I supposed to make

"Friends Like This", released on the 12th of March 2021, is about isolation and loneliness which Hey Violet experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Rena Lovelis explained HollywoodLife, "'Friends Like This' is obviously quarantine-inspired, but the song encapsulates more than just the requirement of self-isolation we've all had to endure. It's been such a frustrating past year, so we took that feeling of anger and frustration and translated it into the lyrics of 'Friends Like This.' What we found most soothing is that, sonically, the sound and mood of the song doesn't take on the same emotion that the lyrics do. 'Friends Like This' is a really fun and bouncy pop song that acted as our relief from all of the pent-up loneliness and lack of human connection we're all experiencing."
The band announced a listening party for those who would pre-save this song. They posted on Twitter on the 11th of March 2021, "You'll have to email us at heyvioletcontest@gmail.com with a screenshot showing you pre-saved 'Friends Like This'! The first 99 of you will be cordially invited to hang out with us over zoom tomorrow where we'll listen to the song together and maybe play a couple of teasers as well!"
