Lyrics
(Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)
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've Got
And It's Ooh, Whoa, Oh
It's A Cruel Summer
It's Cool, That's What I Tell 'em
No Rules In Breakable Heaven
But Ooh, Whoa, Oh
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 Screamed For Whatever It's Worth
"I Love You," Ain't That The Worst Thing You Ever Heard?
He Looks Up, Grinning Like A Devil
And It's New, The Shape Of Your Body
It's Blue, The Feeling I've Got
And It's Ooh, Whoa, Oh
It's A Cruel Summer
It's Cool, That's What I Tell 'em
No Rules In Breakable Heaven
But Ooh, Whoa, Oh
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 Screamed For Whatever It's Worth
"I Love You," Ain't That The Worst Thing You Ever Heard?
I'm Not Dying
You Know, You Know, You Know
I'm Not Dying, No, I'm Not Dying
I'm Not Dying, You Know, You Know, You Know
I'm Not Dying, No, I'm Not Dying
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've Got
And It's Ooh, Whoa, Oh
It's A Cruel Summer
It's Cool, That's What I Tell 'em
No Rules In Breakable Heaven
But Ooh, Whoa, Oh
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 Screamed For Whatever It's Worth
"I Love You," Ain't That The Worst Thing You Ever Heard?
