Euphanism
Cleanin' out my Closet By Eminem (Euphanism)
When he says that he is cleaning out his closet, he means that he is going to tell everyone about what she really did. He is just trying to make it sound not as mean.
Falling Down By: Atreyu (Euphanism)
When He is saying he wants to clear his head, he says hes going to drill hole into his skull. Then he is going to sweep his brian under a rug. This is showing that he is going to shoot himself in the head just so he does not have to think anymore.

Social Relevence Part 2
Not Afraid By: Eminem
This song is about him overcoming his early difficulties in his life. He is telling about his path to success. He says that he will stand up for what he believes in. He was sick of people lying to him, so he decided to take his matters in to his hand, and do them himself. He realizes that he messed up earlier in his life, but now he has made it right. He knows that he got distracted in his early career, and now he is back on track. He does not want people to follow in the same step that he did. He says that he got his life back on track, so he could make another record for his fans. He did not want to disappoint them. He is trying to tell people to get up, and stand up for what they believe in. By telling people his difficulties, he thinks that they might realize that their situation is not that bad. He wants to inspire people to follow in his footsteps. He is telling people that he will help them out if they need help. He wants people to put their lives together. This is relevant to society because people try to inspire people all the time, and giving examples of how they got themselves on track, helps out the other people.

Social Relevence Part 1
Prayer of the Refugee By: Rise Against
This song is someone talking to a younger child, and telling him a story about a time when they were forced to leave their land. He is talking about how people were forced to move away from their homes. They didn’t want to leave, but they did because they were told to. The people that told them to move actually forced them to move. They attacked them, and burned down their houses. They parents knew what was going on, and were worried, but they didn’t tell the kids because they didn’t want them to get involved. Then when the people tried to help them, they said they would stand up for themselves. They didn’t need anyone to help them because they can “stand their own ground.” They know if they let people help them, they will be let down. They lost a lot of people because they were forced to move, but they also met a lot of people too. He says that everyone was counting on everyone else, so they couldn’t let each other down. I think this a good story that is told. It shows that people might be forced to move, but if they stick together, they will always persevere.

Friendship
Two Steps Behind By: Def Leppard
Walk away if you want to it's ok, if you need to you can run, but you can never hide From the shadow that's creeping up beside you There's a magic running through your soul But you can't have it all (Whatever you do) I'll be two steps behind you (Wherever you go) and I'll be there to remind you that it only takes a minute of your precious time to turn around and I'll be two steps behind. Take the time to think about it Walk the line, you know you just can't fight it Take a look around and see what you can find Like the fire that's burning up inside me, There's a magic running through your soul But you can't have it all (Whatever you do) I'll be two steps behind you (Wherever you go) and I'll be there to remind you that it only takes a minute of your precious time to turn around and I'll be two steps behind. There's a magic running through your soul but you, you can't have it all (Whatever you do) I'll be two steps behind you (wherever you go) and I'll be there to remind you that it only takes a minute of your precious time To turn around and I'll be two steps behind. Two steps behind yeah, baby two steps behind ohh, sugar two steps behind
This song is about a man who is trying to catch up to his friend. He says no matter what his friend does, he will be two steps behind them. It just shows that he will not give up on his friend, no matter what.

Comfort
Dairy of Jane By: Breaking Benjamin
If I had toI would put myself right beside youSo let me askWould you like that?Would you like that?And I don't mindIf you say this love is the last timeSo now I'll askDo you like that?Do you like that?No!Something's getting in the way.Something's just about to break.I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane.So tell me how it should be.Try to find out what makes you tick.As I lie downSore and sick.Do you like that?Do you like that?There's a fine line between love and hate.And I don't mind.Just let me say thatI like thatI like thatSomething's getting in the way.Something's just about to break.I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane.As I burn another page,As I look the other way.I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane.So tell me how it should be.Desperate, I will crawlWaiting for so longNo love, there is no love.Die for anyoneWhat have I become?Something's getting in the way.Something's just about to break.I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane.As I burn another page,As I look the other way.I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane.

The song is about the singer trying to find comfort. The only comfort he had was in his past, and he is constantly reminded of that comfort by his scars that he has recieved over his life time. He now wants the comfort again, so he is trying to open up to people, so they will give him comfort.

Stairway to Heaven: Knowledge
There's a lady who's sure All that glitters is gold And she's buying a stairway to heaven When she gets there she knows If the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh And she's buying a stairway to heaven There's a sign on the wall But she wants to be sure 'Cause you know sometimes words have Two meanings In a tree by the brook There's a songbird who sings Sometimes all of our thoughts are Misgiven Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it makes me wonder There's a feeling I get When I look to the west And my spirit is crying For leaving In my thoughts I have seen Rings of smoke through the trees And the voices of those Who stand looking Ooh, it makes me wonder Ooh, it really makes me wonder And it's whispered that soon If we all call the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason And a new day will dawn For those who stand long And the forests will Echo with laughter Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, ooh, whoa, oh If there's a bustle in your hedgerow Don't be alarmed now It's just a spring clean For the May queen Yes, there are two paths you can go by But in the long run There's still time to change The road you're on And it makes me wonder Aw, uh, oh Your head is humming and it won't go In case you don't know The piper's calling you to join him Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow? And did you know Your stairway lies on the whispering wind? (Solo) And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold And if you listen very hard The truth will come to you at last When all are one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll And she's buying a stairway To heaven...

paradox
"When Love And Hate Collide"You could have a change of heart, if you would only change your mindInstead of slamming down the phone girl, for the hundredth timeI got your number on my wall, but I ain't gonna make that callWhen divided we stand baby, united we fallGot the time got a chance gonna make itGot my hands on your heart gonna take itAll I know I can't fight this flameYou could have a change of heart, if you would only change your mindCause I'm crazy 'bout you baby, time after timeWithout youOne night alone Is like a year without you babyDo you have a heart of stoneWithout youCan't stop the hurt insideWhen love and hate collideI don't wanna fight no more, I don't know what we're fighting forWhen we treat each other baby, like an act of warI could tell a million lies and it would come as no surpriseWhen the truth is like a stranger, hits you right between the eyesThere's a time and a place and a reasonAnd I know I got a love to believe inAll I know got to win this time[Repeat Chorus][SOLO]You could have a change of heart, if you would only change your mindCause I'm crazy 'bout you baby...Crazy...CrazyWithout youOne night aloneIs like a year without you babyDo you have a heart of stoneWithout youOne night aloneIs like a year without you babyIf you have a heart at allWithout youCan't stop the hurt insideWhen love and hate collide
There is a paradox when he says that "When divided we stand baby, united we fall." This is a paradox because he is saying they are not together anymore, but they both are falling down together, which is contradicting. This just shows how even though they are apart, they still want to be with eachother.

Whiskey, gin and brandyWith a glass I'm pretty handyI'm trying to walk a straight lineOn sour mash and cheap wineSo join me for a drink boysWe're gonna make a big noiseSo don't worry about tomorrowTake it todayForget about the chequeWe'll get hell to payHave a drink on meHave a drink on meYeahHave a drink on meHave a drink on meOn meCome onDizzy, drunk and fightin'On tequila white lightnin'My glass is getting shorterOn whiskey, ice and waterSo come on and have a good timeAnd get blinded out of your mindSo don't worry about tomorrowTake it todayForget about the chequeWe'll get hell to payHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink on meOn meGet stonedHave a drink on meHave a drink on meYeahHave a drink on meCome onOoohGonna roll aroundGonna hit the groundTake another swingHave another drinkGonna drink it dryGonna get me highCome on all the boysMake a noiseCHORUSHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink on meHave a drink oooooooon me
This song is an example of ambiguity because of the line "Have a drink on me." This can be interpreted many different ways. The literal meaning is that they can have a drink while being on him, but the figurative meaning is that he will pay for the drinks, hence having a drink on him.

Uh!Oh yeah!Ah-huh!Jump back, what's that sound?Here she comes, full blast'n top downHot shoe, burnin' down the avenueModel citizen, zero disciplineDon't ya know she's coming home with meYou'll lose her in that turnI'll get her!Panama, PanamaPanama, PanamaAin't nothin' like it, it's a shining machineGot the feel for the wheel, keep the movin' parts cleanHot shoe, burnin' down the avenueGot an on-ramp comin' through my bedroomDon't you know she's coming home with meYou'll lose her in that turnI'll get heroh!Panama, Panamaow!Panama, Panamaoh-oh-oh-ohWoo![Guitar Solo]Yeah, we're runnin' a little bit hot tonightI can barely see the road from the heat comin' offknow what I'm sayin'uhh, I reach down between my legs n' ease the seat backShe's runnin', I'm flyin'Right behind in the rearview mirror nowGot the fearin', power steerin'Pistons poppin', ain't no stoppin' nowPanama, PanamaPanama, PanamaOh-oh-oh-ohPanama, PanamaOh-oh-oh-ohPanama
This song can be an example of allusion. It makes a reference to Panama which is a city. They city is a resort in Central America. It is supposed to show how the singer is reckless, and a free spirit, which can be conveyed by the free spirit of Panama City.

I get up, and nothing gets me down. You got it tough. I've seen the toughest soul around. And I know, baby, just how you feel. You've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real Oh can't you see me standing here, I've got my back against the record machine I ain't the worst that you've seen. Oh can't you see what I mean ? Might as well jump. Jump ! Might as well jump. Go ahead, jump. Jump ! Go ahead, jump. Aaa-ohh Hey you ! Who said that ? Baby how you been ? You say you don't know, you won't know until you begin. Well can't you see me standing here, I've got my back against the record machine I ain't the worst that you've seen. Oh can't you see what I mean ? Might as well jump. Jump! Go ahead, jump. Might as well jump. Jump! Go ahead, jump. Jump!(guitar solo)(keyboard solo)Part of the video version: Aaa-ohh!Might as well jump. Jump!Go ahead, jump. Get it and jump. Jump! Go ahead, jumpJump! Jump! Jump! Jump!
This song is an example of an allegory because it could have multiple meanings. When they you got to roll with the punches it means that you could either just move on or you could just keep on attacking until you get what with you want.

oi oi oi oi oi oi oi oi oi oi oi oi oi oi oi See me ride out of the sunset On your colored TV screen Out for all that I can get If you know what I mean Women to the left of me Women to the right Ain't got no gun got no knife Don't you start no fight (Chorus) Cos I'm T.N.T. I'm Dynamite T.N.T. And I'll win the fight T.N.T. I'm a power-load T.N.T. Watch me Explode I'm dirty, mean and mighty unclean I'm a Wanted man Public Enemy Number One Understand So lock up your daughter And lock up your wife Lock up your back door And run for your life The man is back in town So don't you mess around (Chorus) (Guitar Solo) T.N.T. oi oi oi T.N.T. oi oi oi T.N.T. oi oi oi T.N.T. oi oi oi T.N.T. I'm Dynamite (oi oi oi) T.N.T. And I'll win the fight (oi oi oi) T.N.T. I'm a power-load (oi oi oi) T.N.T. Watch me explode
This song is all personification. In the song they personify T.N.T. They say it will win a fight, and its a public enemy. Only a person can be a public enemy. That is why this song personifies T.N.T.

I can't remember anything can't tell if this is true or dream deep down inside I feel to scream this terrible silence stops me now that the war is through with me I'm waking up, I cannot see that there's not much left of me nothing is real but pain now hold my breath as I wish for death oh please God, wake me back in the womb it's much too real in pumps life that I must feel but can't look forward to reveal look to the time when I'll live fed through the tube that sticks in me just like a wartime novelty tied to machines that make me be cut this life off from me hold my breath as I wish for death oh please God, wake me now the world is gone I'm just one oh God, help me hold my breath as I wish for death darkness imprisoning me all that I see absolute horror I cannot live I cannot die trapped in myself body my holding cell landmine has taken my sight taken my speech taken my hearing taken my arms taken my legs taken my soul left me with life in hell
There are examples of personification in this song when he sayys darkness is imprisoning me. This is personification because darkness can not really immprison you because darkness does not have the ability to imprison you.

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man,You win some, lose some, all the same to me,The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say,I don't share your greed, the only card I need isThe Ace Of SpadesPlaying for the high one, dancing with the devil,Going with the flow, it's all the game to me,Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you,Double up or quit, double stake or split,The Ace Of SpadesYou know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools,But that's the way I like it baby,I don't wanna live for ever,And don't forget the joker!Pushing up the ante, I know you wanna see me,Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again,I see it in your eyes, take one look and die,The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be,The Ace Of Spades
This song has some examples of irony in it when he is talking about gambleing. In the begining he says how if you like to gamble, he is your man. This would make you think that he is good at gambleing, but later in the song he sways he is born to lose.This is ironic because if says he is your man if you want to gamble, you think he would be good at it.

Well I woke up this morning On the wrong side of the bed And how I got to thinkin' About all those things you said About ordinary people And how they make you sick And if callin' names kicks back on you Then I hope this does the trick Cause I'm a sick of your complainin' About how many bills And I'm sick of all your bitchin' Bout your poodles and your pills And I just can't see no humour About your way of life And I think I can do more for you With this here fork and knife Chorus: Eat the Rich: there's only one thing they're good for Eat the Rich: take one bite now - come back for more Eat the Rich: I gotta get this off my chest Eat the Rich: take one bite now, spit out the rest So I called up my head shrinker And I told him what I'd done Said you'd best go on a diet Yeah I hope you have some fun And a don't go burst a bubble On the rich folks who get rude �Cause you won't get in no trouble When you eats that kinda food Now their smokin' up the junk bonds And then they go get stiff And they're dancin' in the yacht club With Muff and Uncle Biff But there's one good thing that happens When you toss your pearls to swine Their attitudes may taste like shit But go real good with wine Chorus Wake up kid, it's half past your youth Ain't nothin' really changes but the date You a grand slammer, but you no Babe Ruth You gotta learn how to relate Or you'll be swingin' from the pearly gate Now you got all the answers, low and behold You got the right key baby but the wrong key ho, yo Believe in all the good things That money just can't buy Then you won't get no belly ache From eatin' humble pie I believe in rags to riches Your inheritence won't last So take your Grey Poupon my friend And shove it up your ass! Chorus Eat the Rich: there's only one thing they're good for Eat the Rich: take one bite now - come back for more Eat the Rich: don't stop me now I'm goin' crazy Eat the Rich: that's my idea of a good time baby
There is an example of irony whenthe singer says Eat the rich: there's only one thing they're good for. thsi is ironic because you would think that the rich could help out by donationg to charities, but the singer is persistant that the rich are good for nothing.

A wild ride over stony ground Such a lust for life the circus comes to town We are the hungry ones on a lightning raid Just like a river runs like a fire needs flame Oh, I burn for you I gotta feel it in my blood wo oh I need your touch don't need your love wo oh And I want and I need And I lust animal And I want and I need And I lust animal Cry wolf given mouth to mouth Like a movin' heartbeat in the witchin' hour I'm runnin' with the wind a shadow in the dust And like the drivin' rain yeah like the restless rust I never sleep I gotta feel it in my blood wo oh I need your touch don't need your love wo oh And I want and I need And I lust animal And I want and I need And I lust animal Cry wolf baby cry tough Gonna hunt you like an animal Gonna take your love 'n' run I gotta feel it in my blood wo oh I need your touch don't need your love wo oh And I want and I need And I lust animal And I want and I need And I lust animal And I want and I need And I lust animal Take me tame me Make me your animal Show me stroke me Let me be your animal I want ooh yeah animal
There is a paradox in this song when the say I need you touch, but i dont need you love. This is a paradox because when someone touches someone, they usually love or just like the person singing this song is saying how he only wants them to touch him.

song with hyperbole in it
When I'm Gone By:Eminem
Have you ever loved someone so much, you'd give an arm for?Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
When they know they're your heart
And you know you were their armour
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm 'her
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you?
And everything you stand for, turns on you, despite you?What happens when you become the main source of her pain?
This is a hyperbole because there is no way that one person can be the main source of someone else's pain. There will always be other reasons. That makes this an extreme exageration.

"Master of Puppets" By: Metallica
End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths' construction
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you
Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master
Master of puppets
I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you
Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master
Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Master, master, where's the dreams that I've been after?
Master, master, you promised only lies
Laughter, laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries
Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too
Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master
Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause
I'll hear you scream

Master of Puppets is a song about a man, who is going crazy. He keeps referring to a “Master” that is entrapping him. His “Master” is really only his mind. It is playing the tricks on him. He is going insane. This suits my theme of madness because the man is starting to go insane. It seems as if the man is developing schizophrenia. He believes there is another person controlling his life, and putting him down, but there is really no one else. He feels like he is being tortured, when really he is torturing himself. He is going mad.
