Hollywood Lyrics

[Verse 1]
As time was ticking, we were winning
And it all was going as planned
Politicians stand between the
Lines of making headlines, street signs
Saying you're going the wrong way
Fading faster now

[Chorus]
You can try to break us
And make us fall apart
But the fires in our hearts
Reminisce on memories 'cause we're gone
And don't forget to
Hold back your thoughts and live like robots
'Cause we all know what goes on
Reminisce on memories 'cause we're gone
We're gone, so gone

[Verse 2]
Fallen soldiers all around us
But we're still standing strong
Embarrassing and contradicting
'Cause now, we're making headlines, primetime
Saying, "What a story!"
Billboards, packed tours
Don't forget
[Chorus]
You can try to break us
And make us fall apart
But the fires in our hearts
Reminisce on memories 'cause we're gone
And don't forget to
Hold back your thoughts and live like robots
'Cause we all know what goes on
Reminisce on memories 'cause we're gone
We're gone, so gone

[Bridge]
And game over, you're done
Out of left field, we won
Pack our bags
Yeah, we'll run
Hollywood, here we come

[Chorus]
You can try to break us
And make us fall apart
The fires in our hearts
Reminisce on memories 'cause we're gone
And don't forget to
Hold back your thoughts and live like robots
'Cause we all know what goes on
Reminisce on memories 'cause we're gone
We're gone
[Outro]
You can try to break us
And make us fall apart
But the fires in our hearts
Reminisce on memories 'cause we're gone

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Jonas Brothers say about "Hollywood"?
Genius Answer

For the 10 year anniversary of the album’s release, the Jonas Brothers did a track for track with J-14

  • Nick Jonas: "This was a song that we wrote after “Year 3000” started to do well everywhere. We had finally found somewhere we belong here at Hollywood Records, which is a pretty cool thing."
  • Kevin Jonas: "Truthfully, this song was inspired by the fact that we were going to a new label and it was the beginning of a new chapter in the Jonas Brothers’ life."
  • Joe Jonas: "We wrote it about our new label, and it was about our new situation, transitioning from Columbia Records over to Hollywood Records."
