Abandon Your Hope Lyrics
Hollywood demonology
Sound the seventh
Parade of vanity
We built this city
For pleasure and sin
We love in self-pity
The light is getting dim
Accelerate the dead tonight
Embrace this
My stage fright
I saw a thought, an intent
Now everybody cries
We'll wait and stop for the dead
Now everybody talks
Hollywood demonology
Hey baby!
Say hello to tragedy
I bare my guilt
In my worship
I indulge in your fame
Only myself to blame
Accelerate the dead tonight
Embrace this
My stage fright
I saw a thought, an intent
Now everybody cries
We'll wait and stop for the dead
Now everybody talks
Of revenge and conspiracy
Of love and lunacy
The dawn of the dead
Has arrived over Hollywood
Of revenge and conspiracy
Of love and lunacy
The dawn of the dead
I saw a thought, an intent
We'll wait and stop for the dead
I saw a thought, an intent
Now everybody cries
We'll wait and stop for the dead
Now everybody talks
Of revenge and conspiracy
Of love and lunacy
The dawn of the dead
Accelerate the dead tonight
Of revenge and conspiracy
Of love and lunacy
The dawn of the dead
Embrace this
My stage fright
Sound the seventh
Parade of vanity
We built this city
For pleasure and sin
We love in self-pity
The light is getting dim
Accelerate the dead tonight
Embrace this
My stage fright
Now everybody cries
We'll wait and stop for the dead
Now everybody talks
Hey baby!
Say hello to tragedy
I bare my guilt
In my worship
I indulge in your fame
Only myself to blame
Accelerate the dead tonight
Embrace this
My stage fright
Now everybody cries
We'll wait and stop for the dead
Now everybody talks
Of love and lunacy
The dawn of the dead
Has arrived over Hollywood
Of revenge and conspiracy
Of love and lunacy
The dawn of the dead
We'll wait and stop for the dead
Now everybody cries
We'll wait and stop for the dead
Now everybody talks
Of love and lunacy
The dawn of the dead
Accelerate the dead tonight
Of revenge and conspiracy
Of love and lunacy
The dawn of the dead
Embrace this
My stage fright

I think it's about how hollywood prioritises the wrong things. Like don't pay attention to great thoughts or original ideas but when someone dies the world has to come to a grinding hault.
Or maybe it's about having the wrong response, like crying at a thought and talking about the dead.
