Russian Roulette
Playing Russian Roulette with my feelings,
the gun firmly against my head.
I'm not sure that's how it works,
but his rules don't seem to match the ones set.
Adding the bullet,
spinning the cylinder.
We start with one.
This lethal game is in my favor,
One against five, one against five.
Landing on an empty chamber,
a marvelous click.
I won.
Was that so bad?
Lets add another bullet sweetheart.
No, don't be sad.
It's not so bad.
He said it would stop.
Adding the bullets,
spinning the cylinder.
We're up to two.
This lethal game is in my favor,
Two against four, two against four.
Landing on an empty chamber,
a marvelous click.
I won.
Was that so bad?
See we're winning!
Come my love lets beat the odds.
He said it would stop, why won't he stop.
Adding the bullets,
spinning the cylinder.
We're up to three.
This lethal game is evened out.
Filled with uncontrollable doubt.
Three against three, three against three.
Landing on that fatal bullet,
I knew it, I knew it.
This time I'm done.
