Rihanna: Russian Roulette

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

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

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

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

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

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

De ce Russian Roulette? Pentru că acum un an era cea mai difuzată melodie la radio. Pentru că acum exact un an eram la Fundeni. Pentru că mama era pe masa de operaţie iar eu complet dezorientat mă plimbam de colo colo, pe culoare sau în curtea spitalului, aşteptând ca operaţia să se termine. Doar doar s-o termina odată! Iar melodia Rhiannei îmi tot revenea obsesiv în minte. De fiecare dată mă infioram şi mă gândeam că totul e atât de relativ. Că totul atarnă de un fir de aţă. Că până la urmă totul nu e decât o ruletă rusească.
