Best Friends Lyrics
[Verse 1: Luke]
Honey, I can see you when you're reachin' out for more
Your fear is only rational until it all becomes
A feeling of the past livin' under the summer sun
But, baby, you're an animal and life has just begun
Take me as I am and I will take you as you are
You call me on my shit and my jaw is on the floor
I'd love to have somebody never filter what they say
And I can feel it comin' like you planned it to the day
[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
Silver lining's gold and shining
Perfect timing now
[Chorus: All]
Memories I hold to keep safe
And I live for that look on your face
I got the best friends in this placе
And I'm holdin' on
Memories I hold to keep safe
And I lovе to love you, for God's sake
I got the best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on
[Post-Chorus: Luke]
Holdin' on
Honey, I can see you when you're reachin' out for more
Your fear is only rational until it all becomes
A feeling of the past livin' under the summer sun
But, baby, you're an animal and life has just begun
Take me as I am and I will take you as you are
You call me on my shit and my jaw is on the floor
I'd love to have somebody never filter what they say
And I can feel it comin' like you planned it to the day
[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
Silver lining's gold and shining
Perfect timing now
[Chorus: All]
Memories I hold to keep safe
And I live for that look on your face
I got the best friends in this placе
And I'm holdin' on
Memories I hold to keep safe
And I lovе to love you, for God's sake
I got the best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on
[Post-Chorus: Luke]
Holdin' on
[Verse 2: Michael]
Life is like a poem written on a bathroom wall
A decorated list of all the things you've felt before
It's not a perfect narrative, there's beauty in mistakes
It's time to love somebody who won't try to change your way
I remember waitin' on the calm before the storm
Back when we were on the other side of twenty-four
Take me to the place where everybody knows our names
It's better late than never, baby, I don't wanna wait for
[Pre-Chorus: Michael]
Silver lining's gold and shining
Perfect timing now
[Chorus: All]
Memories I hold to keep safe
And I live for that look on your face
I got the best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on
Memories I hold to keep safe
And I love to love you, for God's sake
I got the best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on
[Pre-Chorus: All, Luke]
Silver lining's gold and shining
Perfect timing now (Oh-oh-oh)

What did 5 Seconds of Summer say about "Best Friends"?
Genius Answer
“Best Friends” started in the desert, Michael had the string staccato part and we built the vocals and the melody around the gaps phonetically in that rythm. “Best Friends” went through a bunch of different lyric stages. Getting this story of what friendship can be like to other people, but also what friendship is like to us personally. We definitely wanted this chorus to be one that unites everyone at a concert with us. It’s super high energy and this song is just full of love.
