Hollywood

Dog's Eye View

I hope you're happy

Out in glitter gulch

With your brand new friends

Who will shake you off like a dog

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
