Verse 1
Fever dream high
in the quiet of the night
You
know that I caught it (oh
yeah, you’re right, I want it)
Bad, bad boy,
shiny toy with a price
You
know that I bought it (oh
yeah, you’re right, I want it)
Pre-Chorus 1
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
Chorus 1
And it’s
new, the shape of your body
It’s
blue, the feeling I’ve got
And it’s
ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a
cruel summer
It’s
cool, that’s what I tell ’em
No
rules in breakable heaven
But
ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a
cruel summer, with
you
Verse 2
Hang your head low
in the glow of the vending
machine
I’m not dying (oh
yeah, you’re right, I want it)
We
say that we’ll just
screw it up in these trying
times
We’re not trying (oh
yeah, you’re right, I want it)
Pre-Chorus 2
So cut the
headlights, summer’s
a knife
I’m always waiting
for you just to cut to
the bone
Devils roll the
dice (dice), angels roll their eyes (eyes)
And if I
bleed, you’ll be the last to know
Chorus 2
Oh it’s
new, the shape of your body
It’s
blue, the feeling I’ve got
And it’s
ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a
cruel summer
It’s
cool, that’s what I tell ’em
No
rules in breakable heaven
But
ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a
cruel summer, with
you
Bridge
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 [N.c.]heard?”
He looks up, grinning like a devil
Chorus 3
It’s
new, the shape of your body
It’s
blue, the feeling I’ve got
And it’s
ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a
cruel summer
It’s
cool, that’s what I tell ’em
No
rules in breakable heaven
But
ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a
cruel summer, with
you
Outro
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?”
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
