Las Vegas nights...

Las Vegas nights...

Flights arriving in the Las Vegas skies, I sold my soul for the sound of chips
I got my key card for room 449 and awaited for luscious Lucindas lipsย 
The pink feathers and raised high heels as crowds shouted for the showbiz queenย 
This is the erotic fairground of lace, leather and lustful whips!ย 

Throw the dice
Switch the light
Think twice
For I am...
An addicted parasite!ย 

A gamblers way to nowhere, but the lights shone too bright
The flashing images of neon, wrapped me up without a fight
A Cadillac cardiac, the burning wheels was haunting my heart
The slight of hand, up or broke, I loved the flickering of cardsย 

Throw the dice
Switch the light
Think twice
For I am...
An addicted parasite!ย 

Champagne flutes soaked my desert throat but one more bet for the chaotic roadย 
I was a creature of habbit I entered and exited them doors with a battling rage aloneย 
With illuminated palm trees I strolled withinย 
With the Russian roulette wheel I would never winย 

I was a shadow
I wandered around
In the heatย 
But killing myselfย 
I was alone
So I
Chose to rise
Live my lifeย 
I...
Threw the dice!
Switched the light!
Thought twice!
For I WAS...
An addicted parasite!

Think twice.

I wrote a children's book a few year back, called 'the school run'. But didn't do anything with it but I'm hoping to get that published in the near future, and that was the same, all the crazy characters had personalities of their own ?? xย

In Truth...

In this acid sky, you cry like a robotic disguise,
As controlled A.I,
A machine!
