Ur sure Pixdogg? I'm pretty sure it's a metaphor. The song's about a kidnapping. Hollywood is a kidnapper. The song's about how hollywood kidnaps, in a sense, people and changes them and distorts them and makes them very fake and plastic, just like everyone else in hollywood. In the end, the kid who was kidnapped doesn't want to go home, just like when people go to hollywood, they don't ever want to leave, they're just stuck in their superficial little Hollywood world.

these lyrics are missing part of the song: Heather's gone She left a note "He is Legend" was all she wrote Go fetch the detective I think I've found something This isn't Heater's handwriting (that's right, I said it) i said it, no i said it i said it, no i said it [repeat] i said it, yes i did i said it, yes i did at first it sounds like the singer/narrator and the "hollywood" voice are arguing. "i said it", "no i said it." then it sounds like the narrator won, "i said it, yes i did."

This song is great. Instrumentally, it is as near perfect as you can get, since the perfect song is impossible. And the lyrics... Who the crap comes up with this!? It's genius! Personifying "Hollywood" as a kidnapper... I mean, pure genius!

I might be wrong, and I can't check it right now since my CD case is at home, but... I almost want to say that the insert says that the first line is "Had this girl". But again, I could be totally wrong.

Marilyn Monroe said "Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul." It's true, things that are of real worth are lost in all the 'glamour'.

this is the only song on the cd that i liked. I thought the rest of it was kind of wussy. I guess I am used to Living Sacrifice and Extol

i guess this is just based off of a short story he wrote. he told an interviewer that although this does sound like a bash on hollywood, no one from the band has actually ever been to hollywood. it was just a cool premise for a song brought about by a short story he wrote; which supposedly is the inspiration for a lot of the songs off of this album.

hey yea i agree with you DemonHunter! plus the "dad i'm not coming home" makes more sense with the fact that you said that when people goes to hollywood they just want to stay there

This song definitely seems to say how Hollywood can change someone. If you pay attention to the vocals it kinda sounds like at the end that he is going crazy. The whole song is a metaphor. About how manipulative the drugs, sex, rocknroll, and most of all FASHION of Holywood is.

definitely a satire on hollywood and how superficial it is. hollywood is characterized as the evil that pollutes america. notice the change in vocals when it cuts to " i...am.... HOLLYWOOD" the band even said that this is something that's been in their hearts for a while.

i'm almost positive this song is about a daughter being "kidnapped" by hollywood. and the daughter changes so much as a result of being there, and her father seems to not understand whats happened to her.

I don't know the exact meaning, but this song makes me want to kick some ass and hxc dance like fuck. It's amazing live to, if you can resist the urge to jump into the pit and kick up some dust, then watch him as he belts out 'I AM HOLLYWOOD', i caught the first and last ones, i thought he was going to fold in half backwards or some scary exorcist shit like that.
