Dear Hollywood
Anthem Lights' 'Dear Hollywood' is a heartfelt plea to the entertainment industry, urging it to look beyond fame and glamour toward deeper truths. The song expresses concern that Hollywood is missing the 'perfect love' displayed through the cross, which symbolizes God's love and sacrifice. It encourages those with influence to recognize their potential for good and to find true worth beyond worldly success. The lyrics reflect a Christian perspective on the emptiness of materialism and the need for spiritual awakening, calling for a shift in focus from self to something greater.
There's a cross that's lit up on your hill tonight
Crying desperately for your attention
But caught up in the glitz and fashion lights
You're blind to everything that you've been missing
And it breaks my heart that you can't look away
Dear hollywood
I wish you would
See the truth
Dear hollywood
There's so much good
That you could do
With so many eyes watching you
Hollywood
Broken hearted but pretending you're alright
You've lived out every dream but something's missing
There's a bigger picture calling you tonight
You could know your worth if you would only listen
Dear hollywood
I wish you would
See the truth
Dear hollywood
There's so much good
That you could do
With so many eyes watching you
There's so much more to give
So much more to gain
When all the world is listening
There's so much more to say
[x2]
And it breaks my heart
That you still look away
From the perfect love
That's right there on display
Dear hollywood
I wish you would
See the truth
Dear hollywood
There's so much good
That you could do
Dear hollywood
I wish you would
See the truth
Dear hollywood
There's so much good
That you could do
With so many eyes watching you
Oh with so many eyes watching you
Hollywood
Dear hollywood
I wish you would (Hollywood)
See the truth
Hollywood
Dear hollywood
There's so much good
That you could do
Dear hollywood
I wish you would
See the truth
Dear hollywood
There's so much good
That you could do...
