So you wanna come to Hollywood You wanna reach the sky You got to touch the stars so high above This kind of fame is come and gone overnight This ain't the kind of love you want it's war And it's tougher This is the kind of shit that smashes dreams You'll suffer But I can't leave this place I call an empty whore And I can't start something that's not worth fighting for I can't fake this anymore Lining up for Hollywood What you thought you'd never see Bright is the future When it's fucking you and me I speak for redemption And a call for independence But I can't leave this place I call an empty whore And I can't start something that's not worth fighting for The city of the bright lights The fallen stars align I can't fake this anymore You pulled me in you let me down As you drug my heart around You bitch you know I'm here to stay There's a part of me you'll never reach It's far away and underneath The sky above it turns to gray Maybe it's time we all Burn this fucker down Swimming pools- Movie stars I can't leave this place I call my empty whore And I can't start something I know you can't ignore The city of the bright lights My fallen star has died I can't fake this anymore The city of the bright lights The fallen stars align I can't fake this anymore
