Lollywood (Urdu: لالی وڈ) refers to the Pakistani film industry based in the city of Lahore. The word "Lollywood" was first coined in the summer of 1989 in the now defunct magazine "Glamour" published from Karachi by a gossip columnist Saleem Nasir. The film industry in Lahore started in 1929 with the opening of the United Players' Studios on Ravi Road. The cornerstone for the studio was set by Abdur Rashid Kardar. Since then the studio has managed various indigenous productions competing with other film production centres in the undivided India, namely Mumbai and Kolkata. On October 6, 2011, a company starts making 3D Stereoscopic films in Pakistan by the name of 3D Patriarch. Founders of 3D Patriarch are Muhammad Tahir, Rashid Fiyyaz and Muhammad Aamir (a.k.a. Cosmic Aamir)
Most of the feature films shot in Pakistan are in National Language Urdu. (Spoken elements of Hindi and Urdu are very similar.) Urdu is often used in feature films of Bollywood and may also be included in films in local languages like, Punjabi, Pashto, Balochi or Sindhi.

I've tried to find myself, but I can't
To find some peace of mind or what's left
Life seems so meaningless
Sometimes, I just want to give in
As the sorrow calls my name
She comforts me and leaves the scar of pain
And tells me everything will be alright
But I know damn well, that's a lie
Take this day
No different than the others
But I know I cannot stay
Far and away
I'll try not to remember
Still, I remember everything
I am Unwilling, I am unable
I see no hope at all
With all I've given
I can not carry on
Is this forever?
A foul endeavor
Or a veil which I've disclosed
I taste of tragedy and divine
Sweet pathetic comedy
And in time you'll get the best of me
And my mind but it's so insignificant
Will things get better?
In pieces, shattered
Within the lonely corners that the shadows know
It's now or never
No need for reverence
I've paid my debts in full
Things will not get better
I am in pieces, shattered
Slipping into the darkest corner of my mind
Just let me go
Escape from reality
Please don't remember me
The claims of the living on behalf of the dead
In the clasping of hands, holding on to your breath
With every breath a lie a lie as cold as a death
Proffered kisses and faded flowers
Grazing your lips and bonds as ours
With every word you speak
Your request, my command
Treat me as if I am No one, nothing
Not Born at all
Inevitable, I will keep crawling back to you
I 'm bound to fall
I will fall into oblivion
I've given all
And now I'm broken down and bruised and battered
Torn and tattered weakened by your beauty
That I can't overcome
And I am still bleeding
Hiding behind your veil of empty promises
On broken vows on behalf of the blind
You reclaim your innocence and guilt now binds us together
Forever and Ever
Unhallowed Be Thy Shame
With Shallow words and hollow eyes
I have given all that's left to give to you
And taken only the suffering you've shown
And the damage done that you've left behind
Hate, detest, abhor
All the things that you adore
Disfavor, despise
Harvesting such lucid lies
Loathing the empyrean corners that surround my body
And keep me intertwined against the cold hard beating
Of your heart
I shall remain a disciple, a giver, never a receiver of truth or forgiveness
Because I am not worthy
I am not worthy of feeling love
Or the pleasant gesture of a smile
Only revealing the damage that you've caused
Unhallowed be thy shame
With shallow words and hollow eyes
I have given all that's left to give to you
And taken only the suffering you've shown
Post Dramatic/Enigmatic trauma
Here we go again
Every days the same/Oh how I dread beginnings
Still awaiting my, still awaiting my end
Alone and Distraught/Here I lay
Slightly fevered from today
Cannot bare what they say
Self loathing, I'll fade away (away)
Just leave me lying here
I'll close my eyes/escape this life
And sleep to pass the time
Oh How I miss the days... were golden
But now deprived
Pondering the question
Why the fuck are we alive?
Growing older now, My skies turn to gray
If killing is a sin, then I can't win
And all hope is lost
An act to seal my fate
I can't I am afraid
To inflict the pain, to create my own demise
Oh please, release me from the pain of living
Beyond Comprehension
Victim of Circumstance
Lost with no direction
I can't face the day again
The hole that I have made
The fear that it creates
To know that I can't go on
But I don't have the guts to end it all
Oh please, release me from this never ending hell
And I dream a thousand years astray
Just close my eyes and wish to die and never see again
When I wake there shall be no today
Only deaden eyes that welcome me away
Into obscurity
Release me
Help me find
The door that will open
Release me
Slipping away again
Struggling to find my way
...the light that I can't find
There's a bruised & broken sky. It's pressed up against
But odds are there's a heaven burning down below.
The words rise from the north and float there on the
wind
Like a soft & subtle whisper
Immortal like a wondrous feeling, so profound...
Leaving the cathedral, angels open the gates.
Reminders for the congregation like judgement day
Attend the keeping of all our glory
The scars cut so deep.
Peering through our souls we've lost our way home...
Stripped of our dignity
Promises mean everything
In a world so cold. Never to be redeemed
Will you suffer?
her lachrymal squander in the distance
For lusts that she waits for so scorn
An image so pale & so pure, yet so beautiful
Her face is plastered on the walls
and it seems so indelible
So unfathomable that we're both lost here
To commence the call & endure the struggle
What a stronghold to face
A command to fall, a condemned prayer
Have you fallen from grace?
Promises mean everything
In a world so cold. Never to be redeemed
Will you suffer?
I feel the needle. It breaks the skin
It's the end of all
I feel the walls, they are closing in
It's the end of all
Everything just falls apart
Feels like the end
I've been in this same place before
Seems so familiar
It's the end of all
Lying face down. I'm on the floor
The morning after
It's the end of all
Everything just falls apart
Autumn leaves and winter brings
Back dead things that I've tried to hide
All alone, Oh how do I feel?
Only regret, guilt and shame
Nobody's fault but my own
So I have to face it
Try as I may, the pain stays
And I can't erase it
Hold me, In your arms now
Save me, this time around
Hold me, In your arms now
As in my dreams, I hear you scream
These things, they pick away
At my mind that brings the pain
Times since passe, I've tried to erase
Such tragedy torments my weak mind
Nobody's fault but my own
So I have to face it
Try as I may, the pain remains
And I can't take it
A child of your embrace
An empty trail of tears
Upon fallen leaves
Will tomorrow bring
And In my dreams
I hear you laughing
Laughing at me
What we dream and what we see
Forgotten and what used to be
Two indifferent things but never promising
And to you I do confide
I beg of you please
Forgive me
This child of your embrace
An empty trail of tears
Beyond Broken dreams
From the realm of my contorted soul
Where does a body end? I don't know
But I can't find the strength to carry on
I can't find my way
So if what you say is true
I'll find what I need in you
Never despair and you'll be saved
But not today
If you'll take the bait, I'll play
Your selfish game so vile and profane
If I give myself to you your path of shame
I curse your name
Your salvation is not mine
My destiny, death will refine
For , it's enough to comfort me, the eternal sleep
Away from
Your shimmering light
Burning inside so cold and bright
In hopes I will die without you as my guide
Away from the light
I cannot be saved
From your pale masquerade
And the part that you play
And if you just take my hand
I'll make you understand
And you'll forever be saved
Your shimmering light
Burning so bright
Burning inside
In hopes I will die satisfied
Where will I go?
How will I know?
If I could be someone, I'd play the fool
W/ broken glass & shattered dreams
To gather up my memories of you
Failure sets in these wounds
....and I'm torn apart inside this time
What's real draws to a close
A reflection of all I've done wrong
I'm not the man I used to be
I need grief & misery to set me free
Half of me is dead and gone
Of all I've ever tried to be
Reveals what I don't want to see
Fragments are all I have to document this life
(Picking up the pieces)
Look away not to face the guilt & the shame
...that weighs me down
I'm haunted by what resides inside
Or what hides behind my soul
Striving to find the core
The face appears in the mirror
The flaws & all the signs of age
Fragmented scenes from a memory
Struggling to find my own identity
Look away not to face the guilt & the shame
Every time you walk away. every single word you say
It just lingers right there in front of me
Every time i hear your voice. it's though i haven't got a
choice
....and it's so hard to belive in anything
Run forever. run away in spite of all the pain
I doubt myself and I've given up
On almost everything
Cry out for more when you want to close the door
wast away. Follow through I heard you say
Every time you confront me. I'm the one who feels
nothing.
...and I hate myself for what i have become
You gave me a second chance. but i threw it all away
....and everything means nothing to me now
Run forever. run away in spite of all the pain
Feel the failure. ever after
Tied to everthing
Would you reach out for me?
It's just an empty space.
Am I the one to blame?
Living for your sake
The moon. it pulls the tides
And the day breaks down.
Striking body, soul & mind w/ everything I've seen
Seems so out of reach adapted to time
To it's place, to it's host, to restore some hope
The distractions, so stale, so futile
Silence tries to hide the emptiness inside.
Deluding what you feel, what you thought was real
Silence tries to hide the plan that you contrive
The Nothingness you fear now consumes you
Desolation breeds the bitter man you are
It's all in vain, the therapy
The conscious mind seems so powerless
The evidence is so unrelenting
How is it that you sleep?
A subversive release
The secrets you keep...they all define:
A bias, an agenda, the people you hurt
Letting go of the solitude & denial
Descending down an unmarked path
Oblivion, the divine plan
Assume the role of someone else
Delay until the hours pass
Letting go, you can't hold on
A struggle to find something more
Enarmored by the shadow of one's self
We made it through September
with lust & dying embers
Tell me is that all we were
Now look at what we've done
Look at what we've become
What three words will do
...and you said
I won't be there when you fall
I won't be there when you break down
Dark Haired Girl
where did you go?
you live in a broken world
...and we stand alone
But darling who knew
That when we were created
We'd be suffocated
By such despair & loneliness
Still, we stand as a witness
And die by the sickness
That this thing called love induces
Dark Haired Girl
Where did you go?
In this broken world
Autumn leaves me with your presence
Your pale and graven resemblance
And all the steps that I've followed
Still I'm left to carry the load
A bitter dream that I've left behind
In the still, stillness of water
From the milestones I've left to climb
To live, to watch the nights of the living
The winds await and question our presence
But we, the sleepless and all-knowing
...Shall rise again, like rivers flow to oceans
To be, to rise, to burn before the sun
Awaken before thee, ever remembering of our life
Longing for dust to mist, beholding the sky
As I a fragment of her ashes turn much stronger
Nor fate for life, no meaning can explain
Between horizons, my hope will die
Yet we are held by our own deliberation
Shall set forth unto an ever ceasing life
The sun persists to burn, but no longer shines for me
I now exhaust myself and become
A memory
(...And vanish like a wasted sun with embers of emptiness
Forgotten, forbidden, forsaken the skies
My god of ancients, I crumble and die,
My castles in ruin, buried beneath me
...exalts with desire into destiny
...and I look up to the sky
and pray to a god that doesn't know my pain.
Times since passed for you and I...
Molden flame to flame
My nights of dreams, my blood so faint...
Leading from shrines, so empty and vain
My heart so weakened by all this shame
Behold enduring skies, molden flame to flame
...and I look up to the sky
and pray to a god that doesn't know mym pain.
Times since passes for you and I...
Imprisoned by all this shame...
Imprisoned by my heart and soul...
A prayer to the sky...
I trust that you will hold me
In your firm embrace
Please... let it be her...
The one who bared my childbirth
(...And between us and boundless eternity,
we will be united once again.)
Would you walk with me in this place called heaven?
(When the earth in her hunger cries for food.
To raise his soul high above the firmament
That he may foretaste our tomorrow
And to keep his body groveling in the mire
I'll wake with bitter life...
As earth has burdened me
So I have burdened man
But less cruel have I been
These days that leave me yearning for you...
Times since passed for you and I
...And in my dream, embracing eternal sleep
Holding you... I reached my death
I offer you my final breath
A kiss to say goodbye
Would that I may rise
What flower hath fallen from heaven?
What flame has risen from hell?
...as we shall rise and fall again
(...and the breath of your burning heart
I redeem and dwells within my soul)
How would I know?
It is the fragrance of brooding life...
That I would breath now and
Forever more
I shall not vanish into nothing
I would not live could I but die
For the weight of the aeons are upon me
And the sea exhausts my sleep
Everything is tied to this day
Until we take the time to look away
As we ask ourselves just "how do we feel?"
...And determine if those dreams were real
Raise your fist and cry to earth
The only shelter that we've known
As once more we reminisce from birth the only seeds we've
sown
To close my eyes and then I'll see...
To close my eyes and then I'll see
what thee beholds and then I'm king
Kingdom of ashes and tears that fall...
Tears that fall endlessly
Taste my blade and feel my pain...
A gift you gave that I can't take away
I can't throw away my hate for you
So, I save it for another day...
One which leaves me cold and in shame
I can't throw away my hate for you.
To gather my sorrows with paper and pen
To comfort my soul and die once again
I sleep within the deep of night
And bleed my sorrow with such delight
At dusk... all is silent and still
Our withered hearts remain the strongest of them all
For they do not know to accept such obedience
Conquering the weak, leaving civilization behind
Rise beneath the sands
...and summon thee in man
...and then you will know our vengeance is real
In a time beyond consciousness...
Rivers ran about their feet
...and their heads rose in majesty
and spoke like distant thunder
Turn the seeds into oceans
To feed the life into others...
Then you will know our vengeance is real!
(To plant the anguish in the heart of man. To drink the
blood of the feeble race.)
Their heads rose in majesty above the world
...and swallowed the hills...
They spoke like distant thunder
...and with the winds...
Odors of dead things
The truth of the feeble ones...
The master titans of life
(The scent of burning flesh, sweet and bountiful.
I would breath it
Now and forever...
Thrones, built upon the ashes of generations)
Parched with thirst are the ancients...
My quest to make the cupbeaerer (DEATH!)
Then you will know our vengeance is real
Mother of my chained divinity
Woe upon earth's vain fertility
What sun arose to give me birth?
Had I not a choice?
For you have burdened me with life
Thus I have burdened man
What sun arose to give me birth?
Had I not a choice?
Yesterday, dead yesterday
I have paid suc ha toll just to walk in the shadows...
And with your death, you conceived me deathless
Shall you return with tomorrow
...and wake with life's second dawn and that I may erase
your clinging memory from this earth
Through my yesterdays in exile consumed
I died at childbirth to visit her womb.
With slumbering eyes, had they been mine
What did you think you would find?
Buried in the dark of the night
Holding you close, wasI blind & naive
Was it that obvious?
Nurture the need to conceal
We are going to lose it all.
Given the chance to prevail, to rise up
But you've crawled into my heart
Given the time & the space
We could escape the enemy
But there's a sense that all hope is gone
On this desolate landscape
The scavengers scale for prety
You offer no reply
Someday you will find your way through time
Someday you will follow secure in something more
Sickly sweet, sinful greed
The leeches stake their claim.
You offer a kiss & a sigh
Go ahead make your bed here of sand & stone
Plant your feet in the soil
Let the fertile seed sink in
The carrion doves, they command us
Beyond the dark horizon
Among the wastelands
Amid the land of broken hearts
It's just the a mound of flesh & bones
That's all we are
The cast of many faces, exalt the process
Now it's done
She takes the kids to school
Then she turn around and put up with you
Cookin, wash clothes
All the things she do only heaven knows
But you see and you know, but some how you still neglect it
Before it's too late, boy I think you better correct it
Because you never know what ya got till it's gone, till its gone
And you aint never gonna stop, till you alone all alone
You about to lose this strong woman, strong woman, strong woman, strong woman

But you see and you know, but some how you still neglect it
Before its too late, boy I think you better correct it
Because you never know what ya got till its gone, till its gone
And you aint never gonna stop, till you alone all alone
You about to lose this strong woman, strong woman, strong woman, strong woman

Kind of like a light shined down and showed me how
How to move on that was then and this is now
Waking up it seems am I the dreamer or the dream
Is it possible to know tomorrow unfolds too slow yea
Shakin me waking me up clearing my vision again
Seems like I'm born again ohh ooooo
It was like a lifetime passed right through my fingers
(through my fingers . . . umm)
So long ago so much that I didn't know
(so much that I didn't know)
Kind of like a light shined down and showed me how
How to move on that was then and this is now
It was like a lifetime passed right through my fingers
(through my fingers . . . umm)
So long ago so much that I didn't know
(so much that I didn't know)
Kind of like a light shined down and showed me how
Verse 1
Under my skin, (I feel it)
Reaching my soul, (I cant resist)
My safe illusion, (Of control)
Slowly fading, (You already know)
The dance were dancing, (Weve danced before)
Matter of time (Before I let go)
Weve come together, (To tear us apart)
And though it was written (With that look in your eyes)
Chorus
Its just the Naked Truth (Truly alive when Im with you)
Its just the Naked Truth (Youve changed all I thought I knew)
Yet you were living proof (It was given, the times you spent)
As we climb to heights anew (And the Naked Truth)
Verse 2
Dead Energy (The currency)
Close the space (Between you and me)
Without a touch ascender (Burning within)
Threatens to spread (Before it begins)
With baited breath I ponder (What you just said)
The band is broken (Want you dead in my head)
Im going down (And I love the feeling)
Filling me up (And your taken me down)
Chorus
Its just the Naked Truth (Truly alive, truly alive)
Its just the Naked Truth (Youve changed all I thought I knew)
Yet you were living proof (It was given, the times you spent)
I can't breathe and I can't see in front of me
And I am feeling lost at see without you
And I don't know which way is left and which is right
But I will go out of my mind without you
So I will try to look into your heart
And see the man you claim you are
Just like learning to swim all over again
I have to believe that I can
And I'll give you my heart all over again
Over my head, that's where I seem to always be
And I can't breathe and I can't see without you
You bring me down, I will have known it all along
And I'll sink just like a stone without you
So I will try to look into your heart
And see the brand new man you say you are
Just like learning to swim all over again
I have to believe that I can
And I'll give you my heart all over again
So I've lived this live a thousand years
Somehow I, I can swallow all of my tears
And dive right in with my eyes opened wide
Just like learning to swim all over again
I have to believe that I can
And I'll give you my heart all over again
So I'm learning to swim all over again
I have to believe that I can
And I'll give you my heart all,
Unidentified Divine Object
got ME dippin' through the galaxy felling free as a bird
You're making ME feel good even when I hurt
i identify your vibes through your eyes
its deeper
don't depend on the moon and the stars
for our winters and summers here
and when the sun sets we gon see it
it may snow in July and fry in December
i remember now from where
Unidentified Divine Object
got ME dippin' through the galaxy felling free as a bird
You're making ME feel good even when I hurt
i identify your vibes through your eyes
its deeper- much deeper than space
like a carousel a spinning spell
what YOU do to ME
said it ain't nobody
down her gun take what's been promised to ME- no way
it matters none
now that I'm under your spell
conversations with myself won't end
no one understands ME
seems like I'm the only one to talk to
these spirits running through my soul
they know
do they come from my true home
truth is no enemy and fool ain't my clone
Back in the days when we started
Forever were we
I never believe you'd break my heart
And leave me here like this
You promise your love ever after
Said you'll always be there
When I gave you all that really matters
And that wasn't the first time that I
How many times have you broken my heart
And I let you back in?
Maybe it's time we both go our separate ways
Now all that's left to say is nothing
And we're not even friends no more
I was once afraid of starting over
But you leave me no other choice
How many times have you broken my heart
And I let you back in?
Maybe it's time we both go our separate ways
How many times have you played with my mind
And I run back to you?
Maybe it's time we both go our separate ways
How many times
So how many times can I?
How many times have you broken my heart
And I let you back in?
We've been down this road before, it's full of uncertainty
I'm hurting you, you're hurting me
And I don't wanna fight no more, it's too much pressure
Walking on egg shell 'cause I'm afraid of messing
Up again, I'm at my wits end
Inside I'm torn, what's happening?
Why can't we agree to disagree, yeah
It will make life so much easier, baby
Loved you, I will always love you
Down to the end of time
You'll be in my heart, you'll stay on my mind
I will always love you, can't love no one but you, baby
Gotta get up off this road
Only thing it leads to is more tension between me and you
And it's time we both got a hold of our emotions
And be more open
What each of us is feelin'
Instead of making something out of nothing
Can't see why we can't agree to disagree
It will make life so much easier, easier my baby
Loved you, I will always love you
Down to the end of time
You'll be in my heart, you'll stay on my mind
I will always love you, can't love no one but you, baby
In life, in love we go through
Different things, no exception to the rule
And it's our turn now, we're gonna find a way to work it out
There's no doubt 'cause we always do
Loved you, I will always love you
Down to the end of time
You'll be in my heart, you'll stay on my mind
I will always love you, can't love no one but you, baby
Loved you, I will always love you
Down to the end of time
You'll be in my heart, you'll stay on my mind
I will always love you, can't love no one but you, baby
You'll be on my mind
Soaked in the rain even through her coat
Rushed out the door, nowhere to go
And even though she knows she's still
On that same wrong road, she still gotta go
And sometimes we lie
Right into the mirror
And our reflections try to let it slide
'Cause it easier
But sometimes, sometimes
Don't you wanna go the lonely way?
'Cause I know sometimes
I don't realize I'm free
Holding the map the wrong way
And running from everywhere
Wherever the wrong way map goes
It's gotta be better than here
One way signs, she makes the right
Dangerous sign, she risks her life
And even though she knows she can't fly
She opens both her arms to try
But sometimes, sometimes
Don't you wanna go the lonely way?
'Cause I know sometimes
I don't realize I'm free
Holding the map the wrong way
And running from everywhere
Wherever the wrong way map goes
It's gotta be better than here
And if you're lost out there you might see her
Looking like she's crying
But after where she's been
Those are tears of joy, all the years of trying
But sometimes, sometimes
Don't you wanna go the lonely way?
Holding the map the wrong way
And running from everywhere
Wherever the wrong way map goes
It's gotta be better than here
Holding the map the wrong way
And running from everywhere
Wherever the wrong way map goes
It's gotta be better than here
Holding the map the wrong way
And running from everywhere
Wherever the wrong way map goes
You were meant for me

'Cause I'll never let you go
You and me it seems
Never have a problem

Never dreamed that it would be like this
Never knew that I could ever miss
I've been thinkin' bout the way it was
How we used to share each other's love
I can feel you callin' out to me
I can sense the love you really need
Don't know how we got to be this way
But I do know something's got to change
I wanna be there for you through the thick and thin
To the very end
So when you feel the need for love
Reach out and call me
I'm gonna' be by your side, day and night
Through the rest of my life
So open up your heart for me
I'm coming back for you
I'm coming back just to give you my love
There's a part of me that lives in you
I'm coming back just to give you my love
Loving you's the best thing I can do
Was a time when lovin' used to be
All the subtleness of you and me
Now with every passing day I find
It was a fool's mistake to run and hide
I can feel you in the air I breathe
You're the center of each thought I think
Now there's only one thing left to do
And that's to find my way back to you.
I wanna' be there for you through the thick and thin
To the very end
So when you feel the need for love
Reach out and call me
I'm gonna' be by your side day and night
Through the rest of my life
So open up your heart for me
I'm coming back for you
I'm coming back just to give you my love
There's a part of me that lives in you
I'm coming back just to give you my love
Loving you's the best thing I can do
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
Sounds just like it, looks just like it, feels just like it
Hurts just like it, feels just like it, real just like it
Sounds just like it, looks just like it, feels just like it
Like this could be love
Hurts just like it, feels just like it, real just like it
Like this could be love
Speechless, hes
If I could only put it in words
But I know that it feels good
Hes my weakness, I cant explain how it works
But to me its real and I hope Im not wrong
And I got you dead on
And everythings still good
But Im losing control
Cause I really dont know, if Im falling in love
Sounds just like it, looks just like it, feels just like it
Hurts just like it, feels just like it, real just like it
Sounds just like it, looks just like it, feels just like it
Like this could be love
Hurts just like it, feels just like it, real just like it
Like this could be love
We aint gotta kiss and tell
Though I want a riot
I feel it so strong and it really turns me on
So I cant deny it
Im losing control, and I really dont know
I dont know what Im gonna do
You are the one for me
If this is where I fall in love, fall in love
Aint no sense in holding back, hey
Im going out of my mind
Im losing all my sanity, losing control, baby
I think I may be falling in love, think I may be falling
And it feels like love
Sounds just like it, looks just like it, feels just like it
Hurts just like it, feels just like it, real just like it
Sounds just like it, looks just like it, feels just like it
Like this could be love
Hurts just like it, feels just like it, real just like it
On the dark side in my dreams
I am home
When I'm awake
I am so alone
Never wake me up
You might kill me!
Let me sleep
