Song Description
The city where everyone is a player ? or wants to be. It sucks you in by painting the picture of glamour, coolness, lights, and fame. But what happens when those lights go out? Sometimes, the need for escapism is the quickest way to permanent slavery.

Lyrics
floating like a feather
tied up to a brick
shaking from the venom
that's making him slip
and the harder he runs, the faster he trips
the harder he runs, the faster he trips
tries to keep the spinning
from taking full control
groping in the darkness
for anything to hold
and the softer he rocks. the harder he rolls
the softer he rocks, the harder he rolls
Las Vegas
more than blood is flowing
flowing through his vein
wears his heart on his sleeve
to cover up the stain
and the softer he rocks. the harder he rolls
the softer he rocks, the harder he rolls
Las Vegas, Las Vegas
you betrayed us
you played us
bright lights, everything's a game
bright lights, bursting into flame
(grab the phone, nobody home
drop the phone, die alone)
Las Vegas, Las Vegas
betray us
