Over Analyzing

Love is a dangerous game 
kinda like Russian roulette 
the balls in your court 
place your bets 
put it all on black 
nothing is promised 
no one is honest 
completely 
everyone hurts 
sometimes the ones 
we love the most 
hurt us repeatedly 
that's truthfully speaking 

If you love it go get it 
if it's broke go fix it 
pride and ego 
create spite & bitterness 
don't make decisions 
when ya emotions are high 
true love doesn't last unless 
you give it a try 
ups & downs 
that's apart of the game
like a two dollar bill 
some things never change 
change ya outlook on life
and that man might 
change ya name 
and make you his wife 
it's a roll of the dice 
it all depends 
on the come out 
trust your instincts 
over analyzing causes doubts
