Merciless Summer's Reign

[Verse 1] In the hush of night's fevered dream, I reside Aware that I've captured it (Oh, indeed, I crave it) A wicked boy, a gleaming plaything I've procured I confess, I've sought and caught it (Oh, indeed, I crave it) [Pre-Chorus] Slowly, it consumes me, out the window it goes Ever I wait for you, beneath, where time slows Devils gamble fate, angels roll their eyes What doesn't slay, only fuels my desire to grow [Chorus] It's novel, the contours of your frame A hue of blue, the sensations I proclaim And it's ooh, woah-oh A merciless summer's reign It's cool, that's what I profess No boundaries in a realm that's breakable, I confess But ooh, woah-oh A merciless summer, we both sustain [Verse 2] Bow your head low, bask in the vending machine's glow I insist, I'm not fading (Oh, indeed, I crave it) In these trying days, we claim we'll only spoil Yet our endeavors, we're not engaging (Oh, indeed, I crave it) [Pre-Chorus] Dim the headlights, summer's blade is sharp Ever I wait for you, to leave a lasting mark Devils gamble fate, angels roll their eyes If I bleed, you'll be the last to embark, oh [Chorus] It's novel, the contours of your frame A hue of blue, the sensations I proclaim And it's ooh, woah-oh A merciless summer's reign It's cool, that's what I profess No boundaries in a realm that's breakable, I confess But ooh, woah-oh A merciless summer, we both sustain [Bridge] Inebriated, nestled within the car's embrace I weep, like an infant returning from a bar (Oh) Claiming, "I'm fine," though falsehood fills my voice I won't conceal secrets to keep you afar Stealthily entering through the garden's gate Each night that summer, sealing my destined path (Oh) And I shout, "For whatever it's worth I love you, isn't that the most agonizing aftermath?" He gazes upward, grinning like a wicked sprite [Chorus] It's novel, the contours of your frame A hue of blue, the sensations I proclaim And it's ooh, woah-oh A merciless summer's reign It's cool, that's what I profess No boundaries in a realm that's breakable, I confess But ooh, woah-oh A merciless summer, we both sustain [Outro] Inebriated, nestled within the car's embrace I weep, like an infant returning from a bar (Oh) Claiming, "I'm fine," though falsehood fills my voice I won't conceal secrets to keep you afar Stealthily entering through the garden's gate Each night that summer, sealing my destined path (Oh) And I shout, "For whatever it's worth I love you, isn't that the most agonizing aftermath?" (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
