Lyrics

utopia

What if I have lived the impossible dream?

What if I have seen what we're not supposed to see?

Sometimes, I wanna be somebody
Believe the lies they're feeding me
So I don't see the history repeating
So I don't see the history repeating
Oh, Hollywood
Oh, Hollywood
It hurts so good to live without myself

U-topia, utopia
I'm down on my knees, begging you please
U-topia, utopia
Don't take it all away from me

And I have lived your fantasies, your dreams
I fucked with your beliefs
And I outlived the other sides, the other sides of me

The game is rigged, but you keep on playing
You know you'll lose, but there's no escaping
I see history repeating, history repeating, history repeating

U-topia, utopia
I'm down on my knees, begging you please
U-topia, utopia
Don't take it all away from me

Hollywood, Hollywood
Hollywood, Hollywood
Hollywood, Hollywood
Hollywood
Hollywood
Hollywood
Hollywood
(Kept me enchanted)
(Kept me enchanted)
What if I have lived the impossible dream?
