Lyrical Poetry

I chose the song Over You for how it makes you think of the true meanings of the song. The song is filled with irony and symbolism. The words, "But you went away, How dare you? I miss you. They say I'll be okay, But I'm not going to ever get over you", make you think she is talking about someone who voluntarily left her, but actually is irony by how the song reveals its true identity. "Weather man said it's gonna snow, By now I should be used to the cold", makes you think she is talking about the physical weather, but in this case she is talking about how her heart is cold and empty with her love dying.This song is not a song about a basic heartbreak, but rather true loss and longing to be reunited with somone she never will again.

Weather man said it's gonna snow,By now I should be used to the cold.Mid-February shouldn't be so scary.It was only December,I still remember the presents,the tree, you and me.
But you went away,How dare you?I miss you.They say I'll be okay,But I'm not going to ever get over you.
Living alone, here in this place,I think of you and I'm not afraid.Your favorite records make me feel better,Cause you sing along with every song.I know you didn't mean to give them to me.
But you went away,How dare you?I miss you.They say I'll be okay,But I'm not going to ever get over you.
It really sinks in, you know,When I see it in stone
'Cause you went awayHow dare you?I miss you.They say I'll be okay,But I'm not going to ever get over you.
