Something Unfamiliar, Like Home

So, there is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas...and I want to experience it. 

 

Feel death just beneath my grip, as a lazy smile and a witty quip.

 

 Unfamiliar like home, somewhere nonexistent, where I don’t belong. 

 

Steel buses and late night rushes, closed eyes, mountains passing by 

 

It’ll be everything I need if I believe. Will you? Please,

 

take me from this life, let it be of sin. 

 

Please let it be alive so I can feel again.

 

  There’s something pathetic about pain and those who embrace it.

 

 Forgive me God, I’m such a masochist.

 

Let me die and give me this sin.

 

 Let it be alive so I can feel again.
