Cruel Summer Lyrics by Ryan Burney

Dying For Thrills

2019

[Verse 1]
There's nothing wrong in my life
But I'm still crying
Some days I lay in bed
And it feels like I'm dying
But you know just what to say to make it all feel alright again
I said I love you when the feelings took over that night
We didn't notice everyone wanted to pick a fight
Didn't care what they say
I had to make sure you're alright yeah
[Pre Chorus]
Ooh
It's gonna be a
Ohh
It's gonna be a
[Chorus]
When you kissed me for the first time
I felt alive
I knew what I had to do was survive
And I know
Im destructive
But your love is eruptive
So please don't let me ruin this for you tonight
Trying not to break your heart with all that I've got
Don't wanna be the boy who gives away everything he's not
Sip it slowly
Tonight I can be holy
And give me time so I can make this summer so cruel
[Verse 2]
Was scared to label us incase it got way out of hand
I don't want you to think I want all this to hit the fan
And still you take my hand and tell me everything's gonna be alright
I felt like I was lost and on the road to self destruct
You came and picked me up
I gave my heart to reconstruct
I told you then that I would love you until the day I die
We get the rush moving up when the lights go down
And when the morning comes we wake up in a different town
I don't care where we are as long as you're the one for me
The night we stayed awake and laid down watching all the stars
Could stay forever 'cuz we have a love thats truly ours
It took me to a place I've never seen
With you I'll be alright
[Pre Chorus]
Ooh
It's gonna be a
Ohh
It's gonna be a
[Chorus]
When you kissed me for the first time
I felt alive
I knew what I had to do was survive
And I know
Im destructive
But your love is eruptive
So please don't let me ruin this for you tonight
Trying not to break your heart with all that I've got
Don't wanna be the boy who gives away everything he's not
Sip it slowly
Tonight I can be holy
And give me time so I can make this summer so cruel
