Tequila makes me flirty
I'm a little crazy
I like to party
but that doesn't mean you can take advantage of me
I may look like the good girl gone bad from your dreams
but that's just proof things aren't what they seem
I'm a girl with morals and self esteem
I like who I am
but it'd be a lie if I said I didn't give a damn
I hate that I care what you think
so around you I'll be careful what I drink
because I can't let go
It'd be so easy to slip into your arms
and fall for your stupid charms
I thought I had it going on
what went wrong
I was on a roll
but I lost control
and now I'm 1000 feet into a black hole
You're sucking me in
I feel like I can't win
I say yes I loose
I say no I loose
There's no good answer to choose
I swear I'm standing on a ledge
teetering
waiting for something you say to send me over the edge
I try to keep you in your place
but I can just see that smirk on your face
You know I want you
I hate that its true
But yes I do
I'm trying not to let it go that far
I keep myself under wraps
but my guess is its only a matter of time before something inside me snaps
I thought I had it going on
what went wrong
I was on a roll
but I lost control
and now I'm 1000 feet into a black hole
You're sucking me in
I feel like I can't win
I say yes I loose
I say no I loose
There's no good answer to choose
Sometimes its so dark I can't see through the pain of my past
and you're just adding to that
but there's got to be something to gain
I'm just not sure what yet
or is it all stupid
are you a losing bet
you were a risk I thought I could take
but now i"m wondering if this was a mistake
All of a sudden I'm in deeper than I thought
and I'm so scared of getting caught
Is what I'll get out of this worth that
cuz' once its done I can't take it back
I don't know
I thought I had it going on
what went wrong
I was on a roll
but I lost control
and now I'm 1000 feet into a black hole
You're sucking me in
I feel like I can't win
I say yes I loose
I say no I loose
There's no good answer to choose
I thought this was just for fun
but I'm begining to see that damage could be done
I didn't know the price I'd pay
when I said ok to the game you play
and now I think I want out
but I'm not sure because everything is clouded by doubt
I don't know if any of this can be real
because you actually made me feel
and I don't want that to go away but is that a good enough reason to stay
I'm at a loss
I don't know what to say
except that I'm not sure any of this is ok
and yes it feels great
but I'm also feeling things that I hate
I thought I had it going on
what went wrong
I was on a roll
but I lost control
and now I'm 1000 feet into a black hole
You're sucking me in
I feel like I can't win
I say yes I loose
I say no I loose
There's no good answer to choose

Oh my gosh I know exactly the pain you feel. This is gutsy, and brutally honest. You want to let your heart open up and love but your mind is telling you "NO"! I love it. It could be the next big hit on the radio if you could find a tune. I think this a wonderful ride at a very fast pace just like the roller coaster of emotions that love makes us feel. Great work! A pleasure to read. Thanks for sharing it with me. I wish I could give more applauses.

Beautiful...
anyone who can't relate to this must be such a jerk...
I mean it.
its not just the girls who go through this, even guys do go back and forth like this piece clearly paints.
You are wonderful in your words.
I love the rhyme and repetition too.
