Lyrics
Fever dream high in the quiet of the nightYou know that I caught itBad, bad boyShiny toy with a priceYou know that I bought it
Killing me slow, out the windowI’m always waiting for you to be waiting belowDevils roll the dice, angels roll their eyesWhat doesn’t kill me makes me want you more
And it’s new, the shape of your bodyIt’s blue, the feeling I’ve gotAnd it’s ooh, whoa, ohIt’s a cruel summerIt’s cool, that’s what I tell ’emNo rules in breakable heavenBut ooh, whoa ohIt’s a cruel summerWith you
Hang your head lowIn the glow of the vending machineI’m not dyingYou say that we’ll just screw it up in these trying timesWe’re not trying
So cut the headlights, summer’s a knifeI’m always waiting for you just to cut to the boneDevils roll the dice, angels roll their eyesAnd if I bleed, you’ll be the last to know
Oh, it’s new, the shape of your bodyIt’s blue, the feeling I’ve gotAnd it’s ooh, whoa, ohIt’s a cruel summerIt’s cool, that’s what I tell ’emNo rules in breakable heavenBut ooh, whoa, ohIt’s a cruel summerWith you
Oh, it’s new, the shape of your bodyIt’s blue, the feeling I’ve gotAnd it’s ooh, whoa, ohIt’s a cruel summerIt’s cool, that’s what I tell ’emNo rules in breakable heavenBut ooh, whoa, ohIt’s a cruel summerWith you
It’s new, the shape of your bodyIt’s blue, the feeling I’ve gotAnd it’s ooh, whoa, ohIt’s a cruel summerIt’s cool, that’s what I tell ’emNo rules, in breakable heavenBut ooh, whoa, ohIt’s a cruel summerWith you
I’m drunk in the back of the carAnd I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)Said, “I’m fine, ” but it wasn’t trueI don’t wanna keep secrets just to keep youAnd I snuck in through the garden gateEvery night that summer just to seal my fate (oh)And I screamed for whatever it’s worth“I love you, ” ain’t that the worst thing you ever heard
