[Verse 1]

Life's alright in Devil Town

Yeah, right, no one's gonna catch us now

Dad has bought a new car now

We're fine, no one's gonna catch us now


[Verse 2]

You've said something dumb again

She's mad, at least that's what they say

Mom and daddy aren't in love

That's fine, I'll settle for two birthdays


[Chorus]

Devil Town is colder in the summertime

I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times

Hold my hand tight

We'll make it another night

I still get a little scared of something new

But I feel a little safer when I'm with you

Falling doesn’t feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too


[Verse 2]

We're all dead in Devil Town

That's fine, 'cause nothing’s gonna scare us now

We're all in our dressing gowns

Mine's white and stripy, yours is green and brown

I forgot my name again

I think that's something worth remembering

Spiders in your favourite shoes

Just leave them be 'cause they're more scared of you


[Chorus]

Devil Town is colder in the summertime

I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times

Hold my hand tight

We'll make it another night

I still get a little scared of something new

But I feel a little safer when I'm with you

Falling doesn't feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too


[Verse 4]

Life's a treat in devil town

My ears have acclimated to the sound

Pretty faces fly around and 'round

My head as it contemplates this town I've found


[Bridge]

It’s lovely in the evening time, but

Every time I close my eyes the

Sunshine gets a little dimmer

Now the clouds fall down

I sink my teeth into my fingers

Blossom swims across the river

How do you feel so proud?

Every time I close my eyes, the

Colours fade and change inside my mouth

It’s all too loud

I sink my teeth into my fingers

Blood forms branches in the water

It’s lovely in the evening time, but

Every time I close my eyes the

Sunshine gets a little dimmer

Now the clouds fall down

I sink my teeth into my fingers

Blossom swims across the river

How do you feel so proud?

Every time I close my eyes, the

Colours fade and change inside my mouth

It’s all too loud

I sink my teeth into my fingers

Blood forms branches in the water

Devil Town is colder in the summertime

So I’ll stay inside


[Chorus]

Devil Town is colder in the summertime

I'll lose my mind at least another thousand times

Hold my hand tight

We'll make it another night

I still get a little scared of something new

But I feel a little safer when I’m with you

Falling doesn’t feel so bad when I know you've fallen this way too
