Cruel Summer

Fever dream high
In the quiet of the night
You know that I caught it
Bad, bad boy
Shiny toy, with a price
You know that I bought it

Killing me slow
Out the window
I'm always waiting for you
To be waiting below
Devils roll the dice
Angels roll their eyes
What doesn't kill me
Makes me want you more

And it's new
The shape of your body
It's blue
The feeling I got and it's ooh
It's a cruel summer

It's cool
That's what I tell 'em
No rules
In breakable heaven, but ooh
It's a cruel summer

With you
Hang your head low in the glow of the vending machine
I'm not dying
We say that we'll just screw it up
In these trying times
We're not trying

So cut the headlights
Summer's a knife
I'm always waiting for you
Just to cut to the bone
Devils roll the dice
Angels roll their eyes
And if I bleed
You'll be the last to know

Oh, it's new
The shape of your body
It's blue
The feeling I got and it's ooh
It's a cruel summer

It's cool
That's what I tell 'em
No rules
In breakable heaven, but ooh
It's a cruel summer

I'm drunk
In the back of the car
And I cried like a baby
Coming home from the bar
Said I'm fine
But it wasn't true
I don't want to keep secrets
Just to keep you

And I snuck in
Through the garden gate
Every night that summer
Just to seal my fate
And I scream
For whatever it's worth
I love you
Ain't that the worst thing you ever heard
He looks up grinning like a devil

It's new
The shape of your body
It's blue
The feeling I got and it's ooh
It's a cruel summer

It's cool
That's what I tell 'em
No rules
In breakable heaven, but ooh
It's a cruel summer

I'm drunk
In the back of the car
And I cried like a baby
Coming home from the bar
Said I'm fine
But it wasn't true
I don't want to keep secrets
Just to keep you

And I snuck in
Through the garden gate
Every night that summer
Just to seal my fate
And I scream
For whatever it's worth
I love you
Ain't that the worst thing you ever heard
