Trentaco - Hollywood Dreams

Copied!edit Lyrics

They say “you shouldn’t be jealous of other peoples success”
But they’ll live on after they’re put to rest
I feel so small compared to Taylor Swift
Because when I sing no one gives a shit

But I’m just plain old me
The kid who never managed to live up to his Hollywood Dreams
I wanna shoot myself on Mulholland Drive
Cuz nobody would care if I wasn’t alive

When Taylor Swift sings
The world listens
If I killed myself today
Barely anyone’s cheeks would glisten

I’m just plain old me
The kid who never managеd to live up to his Hollywood dreams
I wanna kill myself to stop this
Cuz it’s thе only way I’ll ever be famous

With every successful artist
That breaks out with a hit
Another part of me dies
And I feel like I’m nothing in it
I’m just an a list nobody
At the top of every list
Of the biggest fucking loser
Who will never be missed

Trentaco's song "Hollywood Dreams" delves into the feelings of envy and inadequacy that can arise when comparing oneself to successful artists like Taylor Swift. The lyrics express a deep sense of longing for fame and recognition, juxtaposed with the harsh reality of feeling insignificant in the shadow of more prominent figures in the music industry. The desperation to be noticed and validated is palpable throughout the song, culminating in the haunting realization that the only way to achieve fame may be through self-destruction. The raw emotion and vulnerability in the lyrics make "Hollywood Dreams" a poignant and thought-provoking commentary on the pressures and struggles of aspiring musicians.
