'Hive comment with ";" still got executed with exception

I want to temporarily comment some SQL statements in the hive script with --, but the statement will be still executed as it includes ";" at the end. I expect -- should comment out the whole line, seem it's not the case in HIVE. How can I comment a full line?

e.g.

-- SELECT "ABC";

Give exception:

NoViableAltException(-1@[])
        at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.parse.HiveParser.statement(HiveParser.java:1027)
        at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.parse.ParseDriver.parse(ParseDriver.java:201)
...
FAILED: ParseException line 1:15 cannot recognize input near '<EOF>' '<EOF>' '<EOF>'
