Russian Roulette
Our love has done it again “Rihanna” the one and only trendsetting, beauty has hit us with another steamy single. Russian Roulette. ”A potentially lethal game of chance in which participants place a single round in a revolver, spin the cylinder, place the muzzle against their head and pull the trigger”. “Russian”refers to the supposed country of origin of the game and ”Roulette” to the element of risk-taking and the spinning of the revolver’s cylinder being reminiscent of spinning a roulette wheel”.( Wikipedia) I personality believe she has taken us to another level with this single. Furthermore; rihanna has changed her whole appearance from this innocent, moderate, gentle girl into this beautiful, gloomy, dark sided women that we now lookup to.
Take a breath, take it deep
Calm yourself, he says to me
If you play, you play for keeps
Take a gun, and count to three
I’m sweating now, moving slow
No time to think, my turn to go
(Chorus)
And you can see my heart beating
You can see it through my chest
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
Know that I must must pass this test
So just pull the trigger
Say a prayer to yourself
He says close your eyes
Sometimes it helps
And then I get a scary thought
That he’s here means he’s never lost
(Chorus)
As my life flashes before my eyes
I’m wondering will I ever see another sunrise?
So many won’t get the chance to say goodbye
But it’s too late too pick up the value of my life
