I flop on my bed, turn on my iPod, close my eyes, and start singing.

Nice to meet you, where you been?
I could show you incredible things
Magic, madness, heaven, sin
Saw you there and I thought
Oh my God, look at that face
You look like my next mistake
Love's a game, want to play?
New money, suit and tie
I can read you like a magazine
Ain't it funny, rumors fly
And I know you heard about me
So hey, let's be friends
I'm dying to see how this one ends
Grab your passport and my hand
I can make the bad guys good for a weekend

So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it's over
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
'Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game

'Cause we're young and we're reckless
We'll take this way too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
But I've got a blank space baby
And I'll write your name

Cherry lips, crystal skies
I could show you incredible things
Stolen kisses, pretty lies
You're the king baby I'm your Queen
Find out what you want
Be that girl for a month
Wait the worst is yet to come, oh no
Screaming, crying, perfect storm
I can make all the tables turn
Rose gardens filled with thorns
Keep you second guessing like
"Oh my God, who is she?"
I get drunk on jealousy
But you'll come back each time you leave
'Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream

So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it's over
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
'Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game

'Cause we're young and we're reckless
We'll take this way too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane (Insane)
But I've got a blank space baby
And I'll write your name

Boys only want love if it's torture
Don't say I didn't say I didn't warn ya
Boys only want love if it's torture
Don't say I didn't say I didn't warn ya

So it's gonna be forever
Or it's gonna go down in flames
You can tell me when it's over
If the high was worth the pain
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
'Cause you know I love the players
And you love the game

'Cause we're young and we're reckless
We'll take this way too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
But I've got a blank space baby
And I'll write your name

As I finish the song, my door opens. I sit up, and look at the unknown face.

"My cousin.... A pretty face, but an ugly inside." He grabs me and throws me out of the window. I scream, but he clamps his hand over my mouth. I bite on his hand and he curses and let's me go. I run down the street, and run into Grant.

"Well I mean, I'm glad to see you, but I didn't run to you." He says, hugging me. He looks at me, and I catch my breath.

"Guy.... Behind...... Me...." I feel myself being pulled back and the grip being tighter on me. I struggle, and Grant stands there.

"Well, well, well. If you're the guy who forced Alex into prison." Grant's face grows dark.

"He did it himself. I didn't do anything. He shouldn't have murdered his son and nephew. He shouldn't have kidnapped his daughter. And you have audacity to say that I'm the reason he's in jail?!" Grant yells, and we hear sirens.

"Time to go." The guy moves and I'm choking. I scratch at his arm, and the cars pull up and the men defuse the situation. I run over to Grant and hug him, and he hugs me back tightly.

"It'll be OK. I promise. I'll be with you when they question you." A couple officers come over and question us, all while I stand there shaking.

"So this isn't how I wanted this morning to be." Grant jokes, catching my hand. He intertwines our fingers together and I smile.

"I was the victim here." I laugh.

"You don't act like it." He points out, eyeing me.

"Well... What can I say? I'm happy I'm alive, and I'm happy I'm here." I shrug my shoulders and smile.

"Tough girl, huh?" He asks, laughing.

"Enough to say so." I slap him upside the head and laugh.

"Let's go." He says, pulling me along.

OK, so I was trying this sound thing for the first time. That's how I imagine singing it. Tell me if you love it or hate it!
