Hollywood's Bleeding
Post Malone Lyrics

Hollywood's bleeding, vampires feedin'
The glitz and glam of Hollywood is slowly fading away as it becomes a place where people with dark hearts thrive.

Darkness turns to dust
The darkness that once ruled Hollywood is slowly starting to vanish.

Everyone's gone, but no one's leavin'
Many people have left Hollywood in search of a better life, but those who remain can't seem to let go of the place.

Nobody left but us
Only a few people remain in Hollywood, those who have either given up on the outside world or are too afraid to leave.

Tryna chase a feelin', but we'll never feel it
People in Hollywood are always chasing a feeling of happiness and satisfaction, but they'll never truly find it.

Ridin' on the last train home
People in Hollywood are stuck in a place they can't leave, constantly feeling like they're on their way home but never actually getting there.

Dyin' in our sleep, we're living out a dream
People in Hollywood are living a life that feels like a dream, but it's slowly killing them on the inside.

We only make it out alone
No one truly makes it out of Hollywood alive or with any real companionship.

I just keep on hopin' that you call me
The singer is hoping that a certain person will reach out to him.

You say you wanna see me, but you can't right now
The person the singer is hoping to hear from wants to see him but can't for some reason.

You never took the time to get to know me
The person the singer is hoping to hear from never really made an effort to get to know him.

Was scared of losin' somethin' that we never found
The person was afraid of losing something that they never really had a chance of finding.

We're running out of reasons, but we can't let go
The singer and the person he's singing to are running out of reasons to stay together, but they can't seem to let go of their relationship.

Yeah, Hollywood is bleeding, but we call it home
Despite the darkness and toxicity of Hollywood, it's still a place where people feel at home and can't seem to leave.

Outside, the winter sky turnin' grey
The environment outside Hollywood is dull and depressing.

City up in smoke, it's only ash when it rains
The city is filled with so much pollution and corruption that it's practically destroyed.

Howl at the moon and go to sleep in the day
People in Hollywood have a distorted sense of time and reality, often doing things atypical to the norm.

Love for everybody 'til the drugs fade away
People often show love and affection towards others when they're high or under the influence of drugs.

In the mornin', blocking out the sun with the shades
People in Hollywood often stay up all night and sleep during the day, blocking out the sun with window shades.

She gotta check her pulse and tell herself that she okay
People in Hollywood are so used to living a high-risk lifestyle that they have to check if they're still alive each day.

It seem like dying young is an honor
In Hollywood, dying young is seen as a badge of honor and a sign of living life to the fullest.

But who'd be at my funeral? I wonder
Despite the glorification of dying young in Hollywood, the singer wonders who would actually show up to his funeral if he were to die young.

I go out, and all they eyes on me
The singer is constantly being watched by others when he goes out in public.

I show out, do you like what you see?
The singer tries to impress others with his actions and appearance, hoping that they'll like what they see.

And now they closin' in on me
Despite the singer's attempts to impress others, he is starting to feel suffocated and trapped by all the attention.

Let 'em sharpen all they teeth
The singer accepts that he may face criticism and negativity from others and is willing to let them sharpen their teeth at him.

This is more than I can handle
The singer is starting to feel overwhelmed and unable to handle everything that comes with fame and living in Hollywood.

Blood in my Lambo'
The singer's car is a symbol of his success and the cost of his fame, with the blood representing his struggles.

Wish I could go, oh, I'm losin' ho-ope
The singer wishes he could escape from the pressures of Hollywood and his struggles, but is slowly losing hope that he ever will.

I light a candle, some Palo Santo
The singer turns to spiritual practices and rituals like lighting a candle or burning Palo Santo as a way to find peace and clarity amidst the chaos.

For all these demons, wish I could just go on
The singer wants to find a way to move on from his demons and continue living life, but feels trapped by his struggles and decisions.
