hollywood friends

hey

welcome to la. break a leg

hollywood friends

you and i

at least we could say we tried

and in the end

you were right

maybe you were just too shy

for some hollywood friends like us

in a place where it's hard to trust

anybody with all these flashing lights

and everybody wants to shine

met you at the fest

i liked how you were dressed

you said you liked my shit

never knew you were obsessed

rolling with the crew that i like

so i gave you the invite

smoking backwoods all night

guess i got your hopes too high

you would tell me all about the drama with your friends

i'd listen

and i admit i'd ask you some questions

even had your back when people started talking shit

but i couldn't grant every wish

cause i'm not a genie

i want you to leave me alone

and if you see me around

i'll act like nothing's wrong

anybody with all these flashing lights

and everybody wants to shine

never meant to break your heart

never meant to lead you on

know you wanna be a star

'round here so does everyone

if you're pretty and your mom and dad are famous you might make it

but good luck if you're anywhere near basic

gotta be shameless

entertainment is a different kind of danger

you might need a lightsaber for those
