seven days still awake

subtle pain bitter pills are hard to take

the summer rain's falling and i can't get up

i've called you but you won't pick up

and i'm so tired

i think my mind needs to rewire

my eyes are open and wide

as our love fades from color

cruel cruel summer

cause this is real life real life

i feel like real love really hurts

it's gonna be a cruel summer

be a cruel summer

cruel cruel summer

because this is real life real life

i feel like real love really hurts

it's gonna be a cruel summer

be a cruel summer

cruel cruel summer

cool cool summer

cool cool summer

cool cool summer

summer nights getting high just to feel alive

bed all day the better days are still behind

i've been feeling so messed up

and honestly it's not enough

but i don't mind

you'd rather be cruel and rewind

tell me does it hurt inside

you're such a cold cold lover

cold cold summer

cause this is real love real love

i feel like real love really hurts

it's gonna be a cruel summer

cruel cruel summer

be a cruel summer

cruel cruel summer

cause this is real life real life

i feel like real love really hurts

it's gonna be a cruel summer

be a cruel summer

cruel cruel summer

goodbye

cruel summer this is real life real life

feel like real love really hurts

it's gonna be a cruel summer cruel

a cruel summer

cause this is real love real love

i feel like real love really hurts

it's gonna be a cruel summer

a cruel summer

cruel cruel summer
