Lyrics Rihanna - Russian Roulette
Take a breath, take it deep
Calm yourself, he says to me
If you play, you play for keeps
Take the 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
Lyrics Rihanna - Russian Roulette Traduzione
Fai un bel respiro, prendilo in profondità
Calmati, mi dice
Se si gioca, si gioca sul serio
Prendi la pistola, e contare fino a tre
Io sto sudando ora, mi muovo lentamente
Non c’è tempo per pensare, è il mio turno per andare
E tu puoi vedere il mio cuore che batte
Lo puoi vedere attraverso il mio petto
E io sono terrorizzata, ma io non me ne vado
Lo so che devo passare questo test
Quindi, premi il grilletto
Di una preghiera per te stesso
Dice chiudi gli occhi
A volte aiuta
E poi mi viene un pensiero spaventoso
Che lui è qui, significa che non l’ho mai perso
E tu puoi vedere il mio cuore che batte
Lo puoi vedere attraverso il mio petto
E io sono terrorizzata, ma io non me ne vado
Lo so che devo passare questo test
Quindi, premi il grilletto
Come la mia vita lampeggia davanti ai miei occhi
Mi chiedo se riuscirò mai a vedere un’altra alba?
Tanti non hanno la possibilità di dire addio
Ma è troppo tardi, troppo per elevare il valore della mia vita
E tu puoi vedere il mio cuore che batte
Lo puoi vedere attraverso il mio petto
E io sono terrorizzata, ma io non me ne vado
Lo so che devo passare questo test
Quindi, premi il grilletto
