It is the first time I heard it. During the first minute or so reminded me of'It must have been love' not for the lyrics but the rhythm.
It made me feel weird too, I am not fond of gambit with my life in games like the "Russian Roulette". U think they did a nice job to transmitting of the feelings on the moment of knowing you are the next to aim the gun to your head.

No, not a casino game. let me explain how it is played so you understand what I mean with gambit with your life.
1. Get a gun with a spining barrel and deposit only one bullet inside:
2. Close the compartiment and spin the barrel, you will not know where is the bullet.
3. Take turns passing the gun. Point the barrel to your head and pull the trigger... if you're lucky it will be an empty slot and you will be only startled by the noise.. if not, bullet to the brain.
So when they say "Russian Roulette" they mean this gun dare game. This is why the video is filled with gun and bullets hitting the body imagery. Needless to say I don't endorse this game in any way.

"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, I'm moving slow. No time to think, my turn to go
And you can see my heart, beating. You can see it through my chest I'm terrified but I'm not leaving, no. I know that I must pass this test, so just pull the trigger (trigger, trigger, 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 goodbyebut it's too late to think of the value of my life
I find it cool and weird. Cool in the sense that it is not your everyday choice for a topic. Though I still don't approve the idea of the song, specially when she is stubborn about that she must pass the test.

I don't know, probably.
I posted the lyrics in a hurry. I had to go unexpectly and I didn't want to lose the lyrics so I posted them and left without realising the quote code was incomplete. I keep forgetting in replies we can save 'drafts'.

Or...not the most important thing on her list.
About the song, don't like it, don't like her, she's one of many artists today who need to quit making music.

Fix what, Ashera?
My post? I fixed the code before answering again. There you go. I added more information. I hope it is more understanbdable now.
The 'Draft" function? It is already active but you need to post in advanced mode (aka the in-another-page reply), tehre you can find the "save draft" options between publish and preview.
You wanted me to fix something else? Then I missed the point. Would you mind explaining to me what is it?
To give more relevance to my post, in case other people haven't seen the video. Here it is:

I'm pretty selective about songs talking about russian roulette. It has to have something about painting the wall or crashing cars otherwise I'm not into it.
