The song "New For You" by Hinds is about wanting to change and be a different person for someone they care about. The lyrics express a desire to leave behind their past mistakes and be seen as someone new and better. The lines, "My feet are bruised from trippin' up / Sometimes I see myself and I can't stand my shoe" suggest that the singer has made mistakes in the past that have caused them pain and embarrassment. They want to leave those past actions behind and start fresh. The chorus, "Because I wanna be somebody new / Because I'm sick of all the dreams that I had / Because I only wanna dream with you by my side" reinforces this idea of wanting to change and start over with someone they care about. They no longer want to hold onto past dreams and are ready to create new ones with this person. The song also touches on the fear of rejection and uncertainty that can come with changing oneself. The lines, "Imagine walking on the sun in Arizona / Don't wanna be someone you know we might be sooner" suggest that the singer is afraid of being rejected by the person they care about if they try to change too much or too quickly. Overall, "New For You" is a heartfelt plea to be given a chance to start anew and become a better person for someone they love.
