Hollywood's Bleeding
Hollywood's Bleeding: A Melancholic Journey Through Fame and Desolation
Lyrics
Hollywood's bleeding, vampires feedin'
Hollywood is in a state of decline, and those who thrive on drama and chaos are taking advantage.
Darkness turns to dust
The negative atmosphere is dissipating, leaving behind remnants of darkness.
Everyone's gone, but no one's leavin'
People have left, but the situation remains unsettled, with a sense of abandonment.
Nobody left but us
Only a few individuals are left in this challenging environment.
Try to chase a feelin', but we'll never feel it
Despite attempts, the emotional fulfillment sought after is elusive and unattainable.
Ridin' on the last train home
Journeying towards an uncertain future on the final train home.
Dyin' in our sleep, we're living out a dream
Life is a blend of reality and dreams, with the dream often being experienced in sleep.
We only make it out alone
In the end, individuals must face challenges on their own.
I just keep on hopin' that you call me
A sense of longing and anticipation for a call from someone significant.
You say you wanna see me, but you can't right now
The desire to meet is present, but external circumstances prevent immediate connection.
You never took the time to get to know me
A reflection on not investing time to truly understand one another.
Was scared of losin' somethin' that we never found
Fear of losing something valuable that was never fully discovered or appreciated.
We're running out of reasons, but we can't let go
Despite a lack of reasons, there is a reluctance to let go of the relationship.
Yeah, Hollywood is bleeding, but we call it home
Hollywood, despite its flaws, is considered home, and the struggles are embraced.
Outside, the winter sky turnin' grey
The external environment mirrors the internal turmoil, with a gloomy winter sky.
City up in smoke, it's only ash when it rains
A city in chaos, with destruction evident when it rains.
Howl at the moon and go to sleep in the day
A reference to embracing darkness and unconventional lifestyles.
Love for everybody 'til the drugs fade away
Love is expressed for everyone until the impact of drugs fades away.
In the mornin', blocking out the sun with the shades
Morning rituals involve blocking out positivity and self-assurance.
She gotta check her pulse and tell herself that she okay
A woman checks her pulse, seeking reassurance of her well-being.
It seem like dying young is an honor
Dying young is seen as an honorable but introspective and questioning choice.
But who'd be at my funeral? I wonder
Reflecting on who would attend the speaker's funeral, emphasizing isolation.
I go out, and all they eyes on me
The speaker attracts attention when out, becoming the center of focus.
I show out, do you like what you see?
The speaker showcases themselves, seeking validation for their persona.
And now they closin' in on me
Feelings of confinement as external pressures close in.
Let 'em sharpen all they teeth
A metaphorical willingness to face challenges, even if they are biting and harsh.
This is more than I can handle
Admitting the overwhelming nature of the situation, feeling pushed to the limit.
Blood in my Lambo'
Blood in the luxury car, symbolizing the cost of a lavish lifestyle.
Wish I could go, oh, I'm losin' ho-ope
A sense of despair and a desire to escape from the difficulties.
I light a candle, some Palo Santo
Engaging in spiritual practices to ward off negative influences.
For all these demons, wish I could just go on
A wish to overcome personal demons and continue living.
I just keep on hopin' that you call me
Reiteration of the hope for a significant connection through a phone call.
You say you wanna see me, but you can't right now
Desire to meet in person, hindered by current circumstances.
You never took the time to get to know me
Reflection on the missed opportunity to truly understand each other.
Was scared of losin' somethin' that we never found
Fear of losing something valuable that was never fully discovered or appreciated.
We're running out of reasons, but we can't let go
Despite a lack of reasons, there is a reluctance to let go of the relationship.
Yeah, Hollywood is bleeding, but we call it home
Hollywood is seen as a place of hardship and challenges, yet it is embraced as home.
