My Favorite Song off Lights and Sounds,
Guitar Solo Rocks
anyways, this song is about, hollywood dying, from the title that obvious, on a deeper level, the fictional atmosphere surrounding hollywood, the glamour, the popularity, the spotlight, is too emphacized. The feeling of accomplishment you recieve from going to hollywood, which is the only motivation to go to hollywood, has died, all the inspiration they've recieved is gone.
Now, that i've explained the possible 'literal' meaning of the song, i will attempt to decode the other message.
One of the things that i think make YellowCard one of my favorite bands, are they're great lyrics. Not only do they talk about the loss of inspiration from holly wood, but they also express the equality between celebrities and regular people, through the use of a fictional character, Holly.
"Names on her sidewalks they move through her body,
Like razors they cut through her heart"
Like any other person, razors cut through her heart, rescurers work to keep her alive as well as any other person.
"Night life and highlife
she just wants a good life "
Celebrities are often known to have big "night lives", however, many are unsatisfied by this and want a SIMPLE life. a good life.
"so someone remembers her too
but somewhere she heard there was someplace to go "
Someone remembers her too, refers to possible family, not just the millions of fans, because once she dies, theres no one who shes had a real impact on, like a child.
Someplace to go refers to an afterlife, and in afterlife, all people are judged equally, status is not an issue.
"when you die when you live like we do
die when you live like we do"
Same as above, afterlife, when you die like we do, being celebrities, and regular people.
"Hey let go of all you know,
I’m finding a way now
What have you got to lose
Say out loud these words I’ve found
I’ll be there when you come down
I’ll be waiting for you"
These lines, let go of all you know, serve to show that in the end, everything that you 'know' is meaningless without someone to impress them upon, Say anything you want, celebrities have very little to lose. However, IF they do infact lose it all, someone will be waiting for them, an ordinary person, who doesnt look up to them for their hollywood status. A real person who cared would love someone for themselves.
