Hollywood, California - a place of glitz, glamour, lies, and scandal.
A place that can make you or break you.
Where dreams are made and dreams are shattered.
It isn't it's all cracked up to be, and it sure as hell isn't anything like you see in the movies.
It is far from glamorous, but others will beg to differ.
if you can hear me
and know that i'm right here
i heard your heartbeat
it took away the fear
'cause my life is sliding
i tried to ride the wave
it came down crashing, it's time to start again
backwards to go forward
left at every corner
been there and back again
and when the music ends
Now I know when you think Hollywood, you think celebrities, rich, famous.
Sure, that's part of it, but to the kids of Hollywood High School, those are just everyday things.
Seeing Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie walk hand-in-hand down the street is nothing new for them.
These kids are practically celebrities themselves, with their make ups, break ups, and hook ups.
They should be the ones on the front of Star, not Britney Spears.
Paparazzi practically follow these high schoolers around as if they were millionaire celebrities.
And, actually, some of them do have millionaire celebrity parents.
Maybe that's why Hollywood High is as scandalous as it is.
Not all the kids have famous parents, but there are a select few who do.
Let's just focus on the ones who don't, shall we?
your life is a flashback
a question, a photograph
a statement, a story, a struggle
a chance to laugh
'cause if you don't laugh - you cry
a last crescendo when you die
so hit the rewind and listen
it's the playback
the soundtrack to your life
Oh, and just until recently there used to be two local colleges.
Now there is only one and all the college kids hate it.
The state of California doesn't see the need for two colleges in the same area.
Branchburg State and Sanford Tech are totally different.
BSU is known for having the smartest pupils around.
The ones who were at the very top of their class in high school.
STU, on the other hand, isn't really known for it's bright students.
The kids at STU were the ones who you'd never thought would get into college.
You definitely wouldn't see BSU and STU students hanging out.
Well until now.
That's only because of the merger though.
They are being forced to put up with one another.
first step, your last breath
everythings been planned
there's questions, and answers
you'll never understand
i hold on, but let go
i give you room to breath
remember, the best things
were never mine to keep
starting at the ending
it won't break, while your bending
been there, and back again
and when the music ends
To make matters worse than they already are.
Kids from Hollywood High, try to act like their in college.
They do it to get a rise out of the college students.
Or the just think they're being cool.
But it's causing more drama and problems than it's worth.
To outsiders it seems like the perfect, glorious life.
But if you happen to be on the inside, you're always looking for a way out.
Everyone in Hollywood has a story, whether it be true or not is up to you to decide.
So what is your story?
What is the soundtrack to your life?
your life is a flashback
a question, a photograph
a statement, a story, a struggle
a chance to laugh
'cause if you don't laugh - you cry
a last crescendo when you die
so hit the rewind and listen
it's the playback
the soundtrack to your life
