GHØSTKID - THIS IS NØT HØLLYWØØD Lyrics

GHØSTKID Lyrics

"THIS IS NØT HØLLYWØØD"
(feat. Timi Hendrix)

Always been dreaming for sure
Am I disease? Am I the cure? Uh
Tendencies used to be pure, but
This is not Hollywood

Painting my face in the snow
Should I move on? Should I let go? Uh
The more I remember I wanna forget
That this is not Hollywood
(This is not Hollywood)

They're always begging for more
The more they are begging, the more you feel sore but...
You've always denied that
Living the dream means living a lie

This ain't no sunshine
More like a needle sinks into your vein
(Pills will not stop you from feeling this pain)
This is not Hollywood

The further you're moving away from the shore
The greater the fear of losing it all
Flying so high, but feeling so low
'Cause this is not Hollywood

Driven by fame always leads into pain
Each star on the boulevard - part of the game
It's not a show, so don't call me names
This is not Hollywood
(This is not Hollywood)

Every shot just keeps us high
We are the
Stars and stripes on the broken sky
We wanna
Wanna feel alive
We wanna fill this hole inside
Every shot just keeps us high
We are the
Stars and stripes on the broken sky
We wanna
Wanna feel alive
We wanna fill this hole inside

Always been dreaming for sure
Am I disease? Am I the cure? Uh
Tendencies used to be pure, but
This is not Hollywood

Painting my face in the snow
Should I move on? Should I let go? Uh
The more I remember I wanna forget
That this is not Hollywood
(This is not Hollywood)

Alles nur Show, late night
Hollywood fake smile
Stage time, 8 mile
Save kein daylight
Bassline, ich base line's
Meine Weste ist cocaine white
Die Seele strippt
Verträge shit
Der Regen drippt
Ekelig
Krieg der Sterne
Star flavour
Mama saved my heart later
Und Papa war Darth Vader

Every shot just keeps us high
We are the
Stars and stripes on the broken sky
We wanna
Wanna feel alive
We wanna fill this hole inside
Every shot just keeps us high
We are the
Stars and stripes on the broken sky
We wanna
Wanna feel alive
We wanna fill this hole inside

This is not Hollywood
This is not Hollywood
This is not Hollywood

This is not Hollywood
This is not Hollywood

Every shot just keeps us high
We are the
Stars and stripes on the broken sky
We wanna
Wanna feel alive
We wanna fill this hole inside
Every shot just keeps us high
We are the
Stars and stripes on the broken sky
We wanna
Wanna feel alive
We wanna fill this hole inside

Sebastian Biesler of GHØSTKID told about this song, "'THIS IS NØT HØLLYWØØD' is an unmasking that shows the ugly side of show business. To be an artist, sometimes means to deal with a lot of problems. You have it all but maybe you'll have nothing in the end."

The music video for this song, published on the 2nd of October 2020, was explained by Sebastian Biesler as such, "Some say Jesus was the first popstar and you can compare his story to many others. The story has no happy ending. People only see you as some kind of god. They glorify you even when they don't know you in person. In the beginning you're the idol and one day there comes the downfall and you end up on a cross!"

Timi Hendrix, featured on this version of the song, created the original cover art of this single.
