Lyric discussion by nikp 

God i love stars! okay so this is a shot in the dark, purely based on my own opinion: okay i think it is about a man who has throwen himself into the "LA sceen" or something with the underlying principles, ie drugs, money, fame,&sex, to escape from the pain of either not finding love (leading epmty life) or lossing a true love: And then there's love To keep keeping you down You find release In the big time

the second verus i tink is talking about a girl hes going to take home: "the last one standing at the bar is the dream that will have to do for today."

the last line, mentioning collectiong, could either be refering to him memory or to the collectiong of girls hes had meaningless relationships with.

Also the movie references could exemplify his mind set and his desperation for love.
