[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 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 3]
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 stripey; Yours is green and brown

[Verse 4]
I forgot my name again
I think that's something worth remembering
Spiders in your favorite shoes
Just leave them be 'cause their 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

[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 colors 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/Outro]
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
