Rhyming and Lyrics – Playin’ Chicken

Playin’ Chicken by Melodie Yvonne

I’m feelin’ just a little scared
I try to act like I don’t care
But really I just wanna touch you
Wishin’ that you’d feel that way too

Wishin’ I knew how to show you
That I’m not here tryin’ to own you
But I sure wish that you’d linger
‘Cause I can’t help I’m a dreamer

Thinkin’ ‘bout your dreamy oceans
Charged by your electric motions
Like a V8 in a frenzy
Revvin’ up until the light’s green

Just another game of chicken
With a cliff down at the road’s end
But I’m there already fallin’
Thinkin’ I might have to jump in

Now I’m stuck here in a freefall
Wishin’ that I coulda just stalled
‘Fore I charged full speed right at you
Shovin’ you right off that cliff too

Thinkin’ ‘bout your dreamy oceans
Charged by your electric motions
Like a V8 in a frenzy
Revvin’ up until the light’s green

Just another game of chicken
With a cliff down at the road’s end
But I’m there already fallin’
In fact I kind of just leapt off it

Melodie Yvonne

Melodie Yvonne, lead photographer and owner of Photographic Melodie, grew up in the small southern Indiana town of North Vernon. She picked up her first camera at the age of 5, and was immediately hooked. By the age of 15 she began to turn every trip, even just to the local park, into a fantasy scene of her own imagination, and started mentoring with many local professionals. Melodie received an Associates of Applied Science in Visual Technologies majoring in Photography from Ivy Tech in 2002 after studying under acclaimed professors and many other masters in the field.

Melodie’s main focus has always been music photography. Growing up listening to many amazing musicians inspired her dream to create visual images that made people feel the way they do when listening to music. Her goal was to help people SEE the music.

Melodie has done numerous jobs around the country ranging from working for bands to being the official photographer on many southern Indiana Poker Runs. Her specialties are in nature, music, and candid event photography. She published her first print work, a collection of images & poetry, in 2011, and has since published many more print works. Melodie currently acts as owner & lead photographer at Photographic Melodie, House Photographer for Purdue Theatre, and Tour Photographer for multiple Billboard Charts topping bands as well as freelance work with many other media outlets, venues, and musicians.
