Hollywood This Time

[v1] Standing beside this concrete dam wall

Is guaranteed to make me feel small

Its seven hundred twenty six feet tall

I just wanna touch your hair / if I can’t well it's just not fair

The fingerprints of your hurt are always there

[v2] Feel like i’ve got a Paper thin skin / prick me and it sinks right in

Been gigging around but pickings are slim

Catch the train - catch the bus / what is there to discuss

Just think about the way you never have to feel again .....

BR1] Mama we're all self employed now

So much time has passed – An’ we just don’t know how

Now we need to have an aim just like in the old times

Trying to fit our lives between the straight lines

[V3] Guess too much water went under the bridge

Too many times falling in the ditch

Trying to scratch but it's too deep to itch

I’m running through a well worn script

Days and nights have got me licked

It’s not gonna get you to Hollywood this time Kathleen

Mid 8 2] There’s a day you’ll never get back now

Searching and rejecting but still wasted somehow

Breathing out and breathing in the cold

no friends to have and no friends to hold

It’s not gonna get you to Hollywood this time Kathleen

Composition Notes:

About someone I know who wanted to be in movies.
