Tall stories of buildings and lies Surround the moments Bells and whistles raging White-hot emotions of losers gone awry This is Las Vegas the fairytale land Where greed and desire devour self On carpets of lost dreams Searching for bargain coupons To discount the guilt Making it tax-free on your soul The sun is a camouflage for pain The weather dry and tear free Lays over a strip of broken dreams With the scant hope or promise of tomorrow Take away what you can get here And never look back Leave the ghosts of losers past To find other prey |
