[Verse] They shut down the mill, locked the gates tight, Said, "Sorry, son, it’s the end of the line." Packed my last paycheck in my old duffel bag, Caught a ride west, chasing dreams I once had. [Prechorus] But the city of lights ain't so kind, It’s easy to lose more than you find. [Chorus] Now I’m lost in Las Vegas, no chips, no dice, Stranded on a bus under neon skies. And the man next to me, oh, he's had too much, Keeps throwing up in his paper cup. [Verse 2] Pawned my watch just to get one more meal, Slept on the bench, didn’t know how to feel. The streets smell of bourbon, regret, and despair, Everywhere I turn, no one seems to care. [Prechorus] The strip glows bright, but it don’t shine for me, I’m just another shadow, lost and unseen. [Chorus] Now I’m lost in Las Vegas, no chips, no dice, Stranded on a bus under neon skies. And the man next to me, oh, he's had too much, Keeps throwing up in his paper cup.
