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

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

I’m drunk in the back of the car
And I crying 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
She looks up grinning like a devil

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?’

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
With you
