It Ends With Rockets - Hollywood

It was beauty that killed the beast
Oh I ain't nobody's prince charming
I sure as hell ain't no knight
More like Heston wandering through Negev in search of something I'd never find
I wrote us a happy ending, my fairy tales are just a lie
And you were already gone with the wind
But my love for you was just too blind
No, Hollywood got it wrong
There ain't no love in these songs I still sing or the light that I leave on for you
You're not coming home, and God I should have known
I waved goodbye to the best years of my life waiting on us
And I tried to be strong, though the day would never come
You rode into the sunset with a love story all your own
A stone femme fatale when I met you, the writing was on the wall
But you were that itch I just needed to scratch and you make it so easy to fall
I feel just like Sunset Boulevard, do you remember at all?
It was years ago now, I'm still waiting on you
When will you take your curtain call?
No, Hollywood got it wrong
There ain't no love in these songs I still sing or the light that I leave on for you
You're not coming home and God I should have known
I waved goodbye to the best years of my life waiting on us
And I tried to be strong, though the day would never come
You rode into the sunset with a love story all your own
Oh here's looking at you, looking at him, while I fell to pieces so quietly
You were my everything, everything, everything, you were my queen
Oh here's looking at you, looking at me, feeding me all the lies I would believe
Oh more fool me, you belong on the silver screen
