Stuck on a rollercoaster,
can't get off this ride...

You made me in every way mesmerized,
still I feel as though I'm treading on thin ice.
I don't know if you mean what you say,
you're controlling the speed, the direction of my heart beat.

I want to say no, I want to say you're too fast,
but I don't want, and I can't afford to lose this.
You've captured me,
so deeply, so entranced.

I know one day this will all stop,
it's as though I'm on the scariest roller coaster,
I know what's coming, but I don't have the ability to stop it.
It may be enjoyable, it may be exhilarating,
and yet so threatening.

The scariest part of it all is that I don't know when it's going to stop,
and whether you, me, or someone else will be the one ruining the joy of the ride.
Or worse still, will we be caught, suspended in mid air,
then finally wrenched from our dreamland to a demonishing place known as reality?
