I rise to look, then sink between I help you see without being seen

Stand alone, Country road, Upward hand, Another load, Lower hand, Load retrieved, Again tomorrow, More received

You can use me in a game, but safety comes first. I can also be second while frog comes third; again, safety is important.

under the covers i'll spin a yarn stories of lovers, queens, beggars, and brawn you'll turn with my twists til your eyes beg for sleep but your ears will be useless; i don't make a peep.

With pointed fangs, I sit in wait, With piercing force, I dole out fate, Over bloodless victims proclaiming its might, Eternally joining in a single bite. What am I?
