Cruel Summer Lyrics Song By Taylor Swift
Cruel Summer Lyrics "The Cruel Summer" describes the fragility and uncertainty at the beginning of Taylor's relationship with Alon. The two formally met at the Met Gala in May 2016, although she was meeting DJ Calvin Harris at the time, and soon after began seeing Tom Hildston. The feud between the two began shortly after the start of the summer of 2016. Furthermore, Taylor feels that she has secretly fallen in love with Joe, whom she describes as a "bad boy", in a physical relationship.
Lover's Swift release comes with a personal magazine, where she describes the summer of 2016 as "Apocalypse", summarizing how painful it was for her.
Taylor's weakness and the theme of this song is similar to the November 2017 track "Delicate".
Cruel Summer Lyrics
Intro Cruel Summer Lyrics
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Verse 1 Cruel Summer Lyrics
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 Cruel Summer Lyrics
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 Cruel Summer Lyrics
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
Verse 2 Cruel Summer Lyrics
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 Cruel Summer Lyrics
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
Chorus Cruel Summer Lyrics
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
Bridge Cruel Summer Lyrics
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
Chorus Cruel Summer Lyrics
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
Outro Cruel Summer Lyrics
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)
