I thought that I've been hurt before
I thought that i've been hurt before
But no one's ever left me quite this sore
Your words cut deeper than a knife
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life
Got a feeling that I'm going under
But I know that I'll make it out alive
If I quit calling you my lover
Move on
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
I'm shaking falling onto my knees
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
I'm tripping over myself
I'm aching begging you to come help
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
Just like a moth drawn to a flame
Oh you lured me in I couldn't sense the pain
Your bitter heart cold to the touch
Now I'm gonna reap what I sew
I'm left seeing red on my own
Got a feeling that I'm going under
But I know that I'll make it out alive
If I quit calling you my lover
Move on
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
I'm shaking falling onto my knees
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
I'm tripping over myself
I'm aching begging you to come help
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
Needle and the thread
Gotta get you out of my head
Needle and the thread
Gonna wind up dead
Needle and the thread
Gotta get you out of my head
Needle and the thread
Gonna wind up dead
Needle and the thread
Gotta get you out of my head
Needle and the thread
Gonna wind up dead
Needle and the thread
Gotta get you out of my head get you out of my head
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
I'm shaking falling onto my knees
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
I'm tripping over myself
I'm aching begging you to come help
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needing stitches
“But no one's ever left me quite this sore” I believe that this part of this song is meant so say that Its a hyperbole because there is no way that a person can leave you sore, therefore i think its trying to say that a person can hurt some so bad that they feel so numb. “ Your words cut deeper than a knife” I also believe that this a hyperbole because words can’t cut but what i think hes trying to say is that, whatever this person is saying he didn't expected this, that wasn't what he wanted to hear.

Fireworks-Drake
All I see is fireworks
Every night it's fireworks
Every night it's fireworks
Money just changed everything
I wonder how life without it would go
From the concrete who knew that a flower would grow
Looking down from the top and it's crowded below
My fifteen minutes started an hour ago
Truth over fame, you know I respect the blatant [ ]
When I hear 'em talking, I just don't know what to make of it
Hate is so familiar to me, I'm slowly embracing it
Doesn't come natural, bear with me, it could take a bit
Yeah and my dreams are who I'm racing with
But you can see I'm pacing it so that I'm always chasing it
Wayne put me right here, that's who I get the paper with
I hope that my success never alters our relationship
Yeah, this life is something I would die for
October's Own but it's looking like July 4
I just wish they'd let you try it first
This time I'm really going off, fireworks
Oh, today it begins
I've missed them before, but won't miss them again
I keep having the same dream
And I think that I just realized what it means
All I see is fireworks
All I see is fireworks
Every night it's fireworks
Every night it's fireworks
All I see is fireworks
All I see is fireworks
Taking off like fireworks
Taking off like—Oh
I'm just such a gentleman, you should give it up for me
Look at how I'm placing all my napkins and my cutlery
I could tell it wasn't love, I just thought you'd [ ] with me
Who could of predicted Lucky Strike
Would have you stuck with me
Damn, I kept my wits about me luckily
What happened between us that night
It always seems to trouble me
Now all of a sudden these gossip blogs want to cover me
And you making it seem
That it happened that way because of me
But I was curious and I'll never forget it baby
What an experience, you could of been the one
But it wasn't that serious
There was smoke in the air before
That was me clearing it—that felt good
All in all, I learned a lesson from it though
You never see it coming, you just get to see it go
Yeah, I shoulda looked up in the sky at first
Now I can see it in her eyes, fireworks
Oh, today it begins
I've missed them before, but won't miss them again
I keep having the same dream
And I think that I just realized what it means
All I see is fireworks
All I see is fireworks
All I see is fireworks
Taking off like fireworks
Taking off like—Oh
Everything's the same but it feels different
My dad called me up knowing that I still listen
And he's still got his foot out, guilt tripping
It's been years though, I just learn to deal with it
For real, me and my realtor, we built up a better rapport
Got my mother in a place with some better decor
She searched the entire city, I let her explore
And now she's saying she's more lonely than ever before
How many of our parents marriages lasted?
I was only 5, I bet I barely reacted
I'm flying back home for the Heritage Classic
Searching for that feeling, tell me where is the magic
Let's stay together 'til we're ghosts
I want to witness love, I never seen it close
Yeah, but I guess I gotta find it first
That's why I'm really going off, fireworks
Oh, today it begins
I've missed them before, but won't miss them again
I keep having the same dream
And I think that I just realized what it means
All I see is fireworks
All I see is fireworks
Every night it's fireworks
Every night it's fireworks
All I see is fireworks
All I see is fireworks
Taking off like fireworks
Taking off like—Oh
“ Now all of a sudden these gossip blogs want to cover me” I say this is a simile because the gossip blogs can’t really cover him. What drake is trying to say is that the gossip blogs keep saying nothing but the truth and trying to make things up. “Got my mother in a place with some better decor” In this part of the song he is setting imagery by informing that he got his mother in a better place.

Confetti- Tori kelly
I gotta keep myself in check sometimes
'Cause' I tend to dream real big sometime
The fancy outfits and the sparkly awards
My name in lights, the people lined up at the doors
But I gotta remember to take it one step at a time
'Cause people seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
I can't just sit around and wait for my life to start
I can make a difference, put a little happiness in someone's heart
The fancy cars, the glitter and the fame
It's all nice, but it won't be worth a thing
Love is bigger, so I'mma stand up for love, yeah
People seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
If there was a rope stretching up to the sky
With all of my dreams at the very top, so high
I get so caught up in everything around me, moving quickly
I forget to cherish every single moment I receive Oh
I forget about the climb, I just wanna get there
Don't wanna wait in line, even though it's so clear
That I'm called to use patience on this journey that I'm on
I know that I'll come out alive and it'll only make me stronger
Oh oh, while everybody's focused on the hype
Oh oh, oh oh... I'll be wondering why we seem to think
You'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting, no
People seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now, hey
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, no I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
I'm not waiting to be happy
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Ooh, yeah
“...put a little happiness in someone’s heart” is a simile because there’s no way to physically put happiness in someone’s heart. Tori Kelly in this part is talking about instead of all these things famous people should have, there’s nothing better than making someone happy. “ The fancy outfits and the sparkly awards” She is saying that this is what people say that need to be dress and what they need to be happy. This also explains of how their are dressed.

My life is a circus
My sisters are the monkeys, always fooling around
My parents are the ringmasters always telling us what to do
My pet fish is a tiger, always grabbing attention
All the little cousins seems to be the clowns, always messing around with everyone
All the "cool" cousins are face painters, always adding color and fun to our life
My extended family is the audience, laughing and smiling at how crazy we are
My grandparents are the circus planners, doing everything they can for us to make life easier
I am the drummer, tap tap tap
I seem to be always playing songs, always keeping tempo
"tap tap tap" I added in the onomatopoeia in this poem to capture the sounds of what a drum make and add detail. "My pet fish is a tiger, always grabbing attention" This part of the poem adds personification to the story to show a comparison between the pet fish and the tigar
