Hollywood Letra

when they're bored with you.

I'm not bitter, just a little sad,
to be taken in
by a smile that swallows everything in its path--
then spits it right back out again.

Hollywood whispered your name
and called you a genius.

Hope you're happy with your flame throwing tongue
that burns your face,
but pleases the crowd as they gather round,
and pay to watch you burn.

Hollywood, whispered your name
and called you a genius, and you believed us.

show me something, that you think is real
show me something that you still feel
show me someone you didn't leave behind
when you lost yourself on the way to hollywood

I hope you're happy in this hole you've dug
where the sun spins around
you and only you.
Don't you get a little scared sometimes that standing in all that light might show you for what you really are?

Hollywood, tell me who's going to save you?
I will not stand in line just to praise you.
I will not stick around to watch you go down
one more lost genius

hollywood one, me zero
hollywood won, I lost
hollywood won, I lost you
hollywood won, hollywood one, hollywood, hollywood won, hollywood won
