She just wants to be, beautiful
She goes, unnoticed she knows, no limits
She craves, attention she praises, an image
She prays to be, sculpted by the sculptor
Oh, she don't see, the light that's shining
Deeper than the eyes can find it
Maybe we have made her blind
So she tries to cover up her pain, and cut her woes away
Cause covergirls don't cry, after their face is made
But there's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark
You should know you're beautiful just the way you are
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change it's heart
No scars to your beautiful,
we're stars and we're beautiful
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh,
oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change it's heart
No scars to your beautiful,
we're stars and we're beautiful
She has dreams to be an envy, so she's starving
You know, "covergirls eat nothing"
She says "beauty is pain and there's beauty in everything"
"What's a little bit of hunger?"
"I could go a little while longer", she fades away
She don't see her perfect, she don't understand she's worth it
Or that beauty goes deeper than the surface
Ah oh, ah ah oh,
So to all the girls that's hurting
Let me be your mirror, help you see a little bit clearer
The light that shines within
There's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark
You should know you're beautiful just the way you are
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change it's heart
No scars to your beautiful,
we're stars and we're beautiful
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh,
oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change it's heart
No scars to your beautiful,
we're stars and we're beautiful
No better you than the you that you are
(No better you than the you that you are)
No better life than the life we're living
(No better life than the life we're living)
No better time for your shine, you're a star
(No better time for your shine, you're a star)
Oh, you're beautiful, oh, you're beautifu-u-u-ul
There's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark
You should know you're beautiful just the way you are
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change it's heart
No scars to your beautiful,
we're stars and we're beautiful
Woah-oh-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh,
woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-, oh-oh-oh-oh
And you don't have to change a thing
The world could change it's heart
No scars to your beautiful
we're stars and we're beautiful
Alessia Cara's purpose for this song is to help all woman realize that they are perfect just the way they are. One line of lyrics says "The world could change its heart". What she means by this is that the world can change their views to accept what women look like. This line demonstrates personification and so does the next one. In the next line it says "No scars to your beautiful". Which means that no matter what you look like the scars don't matter it's all about what's in the inside.
Driving through this world unknown, I've built my life on broken bones
Not living for this anymore, you want a fight I'll bring a war
I feel alive inside I won't be terrorized, I'll take all the blame
This heart of fire is burning proud
I am every dream you lost and never found
This heart of fire is stronger now
Build your walls but you can't keep me out
I'll burn 'em down
I am every vow you broke, they left for dead and turned to smoke
Arm yourself with words of hate, I'm ripping through the souls you take
I feel alive inside I won't be terrorized, I'll stand up to the pain
This heart of fire is burning proud
I am every dream you lost and never found
This heart of fire is stronger now
Built your walls but you can't keep me out
Let's burn it down!
This heart of fire is burning proud
I am every dream you lost and never found
This heart of fire is stronger now
Build your walls but you can't keep me out
This heart of fire, fire, fire
This Heart of fire (Fire), fire (Fire), fire (Fire)
This Heart of fire
Black Veil Brides purpose for this song is no matter what you do I'll still get through the war. One stylistic device is personification. "This heart of fire is burning proud. This line says the heart is burning proud when actually our hears can't do that. The second stylistic device is a metaphor. "Build your walls but you can't keep me out". This line means that nothing can keep me away.
I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath
Scared to rock the boat and make a mess
So I sat quietly, agreed politely
I guess that I forgot I had a choice
I let you push me past the breaking point
I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything
You held me down, but I got up (hey!)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, your hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake your ground
You held me down, but I got up
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now
I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am the champion, and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!
Now I'm floating like a butterfly
Stinging like a bee I earned my stripes
I went from zero, to my own hero
You held me down, but I got up (hey!)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, your hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake the ground
You held me down, but I got up
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now
I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am the champion, and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!
Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar!
I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am the champion, and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!
Katy Perry's purpose for this song is her way of saying that she is going to keep her eye on everyone and fight back when needed. The examples of stylistic devices are similes. One is "your hear that sound like thunder, gonna shake your ground." The second one is "Now I'm floating like a butterfly." These two similes represent the power of a living things and how you may feel as you were one.
Silence, crickets are chirping
The stars are shining
The wind is blowing ever so slightly
No one on the roads
Full moon shining down
Darkness wraps around the town
Emotions are fully let go of
Wind blows around whispering secrets
With a calming hush that has set everything free
With the endless clouds creating the magical scene
Showing dancing shadows in the field of wheat below
The wiping branches dance along with the shadows of the night as a if a festival of darkness
Lifting you so mysteriously into another world of happiness
Where nothing is wrong and all is calm but yet vibrant
Mystical eyes wandering beyond what the naked eye can see
The 1st mind sees the only darkness but the magic eye of minded see the vibrant colors of the darkened world of night
Collapsing into a world that wants more than what is there
As the world believes it needs more and more popularity but yet has enough love and joy to cover all
When all that matters is the soul within
And the heart that beats with it
That whispers “Can we stay?”
The words repeat but mean something different and worth more every time it was repeated
Playing the melody with a single breathe sending it across the world
Making it worth more than anything with a single bear of a heart to make it keep rhythm
Living it full throttle with evimovement of tenderness
Kalysta Koelling and I came up with the conclusion that this poem's purpose is how it feels when you are walking alone and at night wherever you are. There are two signs of personification. One is "Wind blows around whispering secrets," This means that we gave the wind a person like feature. "The wiping branches dance along with the shadows of the night as a if a festival of darkness" is another example. This example shows that branches are dancing when they actually can't.
