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

It's you
The shape of your body
It's blue
This feeling I've got
And it's ooh-ooh-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
It's a cruel summer
It's cool
That's what I tell 'em
No rules
In breakable heaven
But ooh-ooh-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
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 you
The shape of your body
It's blue
This feeling I've got
And it's ooh-ooh-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
It's a cruel summer
It's cool
That's what I tell 'em
No rules
In breakable heaven
But ooh-ooh-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
It's a cruel summer
With you

I'm drunk in the back of the car
And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)
Said I'm fine but it wasn't true
I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you
And I snuck in through the garden gate
Every night that summer just to seal my fate (oh)
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 you
The shape of your body
It's blue
This feeling I've got
And it's ooh-ooh-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
It's a cruel summer
It's cool
That's what I tell 'em
No rules
In breakable heaven
But ooh-ooh-ooh-whoa-ooh-whoa
It's a cruel summer
With you

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 wanna 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?
