One More Reason
Hollywood Rose And L.A. Guns Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hurt so good, can't feel no pain
Paint it black, drives me insane
So far gone I'm not the same
You give me one more reason
One more reason to die
English words, they won't forget
Crimes of passion, cigarettes
Move by night he won't suspect
That you give me one more reason
One more reason to die
And I ask myself the same question
Every night
What makes me restless
What makes me fight
Car ahead eliminate
Smoking gun
That sealed their fate
Flesh and blood to instigate
85 dollars
Ain't she great
You give me one more reason
One more reason to die
The lyrics to Hollywood Rose - L.A. Guns's song One More Reason are about the singer's addiction to a woman who is not good for him but he cannot resist her charm. He describes her as an "angel mercy" who brings tears like rain, and even though she hurts him, he cannot feel any pain. He is so drawn to her that she drives him insane, and he's not the same because of her influence. The woman is the reason why the singer is living on the edge, persisting in dangerous activities and living recklessly. The singer is addicted to her, and she gives him one more reason to die.
The song is showing the often tragic reality of addiction to toxic relationships. Despite the woman's negative impact on the singer's life, he cannot leave her, and she is the reason for his self-destructive behavior. The singer is asking himself why he continues the fight and what makes him feel restless but cannot find any answers. The song's last verse describes a murder, which reveals the singer's unstable state of mind, where he would do anything for the woman, even commit crimes to please her.

Hurt so good, can't feel no pain
The pain I endure feels good in a twisted way and has made me numb to any physical sensation
Paint it black, drives me insane
Covering everything in darkness has driven me to madness and despair

Your actions and behavior have given me motivation and justification to end my own life

Move by night he won't suspect
I make my moves at night to avoid getting caught, so my victim won't be able to suspect me
And I ask myself the same question
I am constantly questioning myself and analyzing my thoughts and actions
Every night
This self-reflection happens every night as I lay awake
What makes me restless
I wonder what is causing me to feel so unsettled and unable to find peace
What makes me fight
I am constantly battling my inner demons and fighting against my own destructive tendencies
Car ahead eliminate
The car in front of me is my target, and I plan to eliminate its occupants

Flesh and blood to instigate

85 dollars
The paltry sum I receive from this crime highlights the senseless and meaningless nature of my actions
Ain't she great
This sarcastic remark highlights the dark humor I use to cope with the gravity of my actions

Here is my best attempt at deciphering the lyrics for you. Potentially contains inaccuracies, but most of the lines I’m pretty sure about.
Open up, go run and hide
I’m about to let them come inside
After all the times you’ve died
Now it’s time for suicide
And you
Give me one more reason
One more reason to die
You
Give me one more reason to die
When I’m up, you put me down
Just another tinsel town (unsure if this is correct)
Now my string has been unwound
Now I’m stepping out of bounds
And you
Give me one more reason
One more reason to die
You
Give me one more reason to die
You might call it foolish pride
Won’t stop ‘til I’m satisfied
But my request has been denied
I can’t have you on my side
And you
Give me one more reason
One more reason to die
You
Give me one more reason to die
You
Give me one more reason to die
You
Give me one more reason
To die
