Hollywood Psych Ward
(Intro) Welcome to the spotlight... Where everybody smiles. And nobody's okay. (Verse 1) I walk in the room like a glitch in the game Every billboard screaming somebody else's name Taylor Swift got a song for every heartbreak she knows I got a song for the chaos nobody shows Everybody wants the perfect life on a screen Perfect face, perfect body, perfect dream Justin Bieber had the fame before he could breathe That's what happens when the world won't let you leave They sell emotions in a plastic package Turn real pain into a fashion magazine caption Britney Spears knows the price of a spotlight too bright When millions watch you but nobody sees your fight (Chorus) This is Hollywood's crazy house Everybody famous, everybody lost Laughing in the cameras, dying in the crowd Wearing a crown that feels like a cross Pop stars, rock stars, everybody plays A character trapped in a beautiful cage I'm the voice in the back saying "look at the show" The circus is burning but nobody goes (Verse 2) Michael Jackson changed the world with a single sound But fame can lift you up then drag you down Everybody wants legends, nobody wants scars They love the lights but forget who you are Lady Gaga turned weird into something iconic Made being different look almost heroic And here I am laughing at the whole parade Where every little mistake gets permanently saved I don't want diamonds, I don't want the throne I don't want millions of people thinking they know me alone Because fame is a monster wearing expensive clothes It smiles for the picture then eats your soul (Bridge) Camera flash. Fake laugh. New headline. Same mask. (Final Verse) So cheers to the stars in the Hollywood sky To the people who fall but still learn how to fly The world wants a villain, the world wants a queen But nobody asks what happens between I’m not judging the stars, I’m exposing the game Everybody gets burned by the hunger for fame When the lights go off and the crowd disappears You’re left with yourself and the sound of your fears (Outro) Welcome to the show. Enjoy the illusion.
