O This line demonstrates sibilance, enhancing the shadowy, chilling nature of the song O “You see a sight that almost stops your heart” O Horror itself cannot ‘look at you’ however can impact ones feelings and actions. O This line is a metaphor emphasizing the fearful and dark mood One who sings spiritual songs as submission to the God. O “As horror looks you right between the eyes” A decent name for a baby Boy or girl which means the melodious musical songs of the birds. Also, the lines about birds still singing and stars still shining can be seen to be describing nostalgia when we are young everything seems as it is set in place for you us and that everything will go well but once you get older the realities of life kick in and you become overwhelmed with all the stresses of life. The lyrics talk about life passing us by and wasting time on love that never works out which is quite depressing. It is described in such a way that is perceived as common to everyone (the recurring us of ‘another’, telling the listeners they are not alone and they are not the only ones.) The telling of common emotions can also apply to other feelings such as depression. I think this song describes the feeling we have when a loved one isn’t around due to death or break up etc. ~ Instead of saying “my symphony played the song when you were buried/ died” he made it sound much nicer and more gentle (Euphemism) – “My symphony played the song that carried you out” I love this song Its all about a guy whos got it for someone, and hes got it bad He would do anything as impossible as painting the entire sky, and although he hasnt figured out the right words to say, he longs for them to stay just so that they might see the future that they could have together like he does. ~ Grow & old have the same vowel sound (assonance) ~’It’s not complicated’ is later repeated a few more times throughout the song ~ Enjambment after ‘another life passes by’ ~ Like & mine have the same vowel sound (assonance)
