I can't erase it anymore
It follows me everywhere I go
It's like a mask that I don't want to wear anymore

I think I've found a way to let it go
But it's still too soon to know for sure
I'd give everything I am
To just feel somethin'

Can you feel that?

Scream! When the pressure breaks me
When it's too hard to see
When I feel like I'm at the end of my rope
One more time
Scream! When the fire burns me
When it's hard to break free
When I feel like I'm standin' on the edge
Of it all this time

I can't suppress it anymore
Here it comes like a flood
Just like before, when it rains, it pours
And I don't want to swim anymore

I think I've found a way to let it go
I don't know, I've never felt this way before
But with everything I am, I just let go...

You make me wanna scream...

It's not a joke
I've felt as messed up as you do
I've felt the feelings you've been feeling
Been through the same things
You've been through
And I know how hard it is
To feel like you're all alone
We've all been given a second chance
But the chance is all our own
(It was right in front of me...)


           Scream by the band Thousand Foot Krutch (a.k.a. TFK) is a good example of a song that is both a poem and a song. One example of proof is the line "when it rains, it pours and I don't want to swim anymore." This is a great example of a hyperbole. the mood of the song set by the pain in his voice during part such as "I know how hard it is to feel like you're all alone." "When I feel like I'm at the end of my rope
One more time" is an example of a simile. An assonance in the song could be "Just like before, when it rains, it pours and i dont want to swin anymore." because all of the words which    "When the fire burns me" could be an example of figurative language because he doesn't mean a literal fire but rather a emotional pain.
"I'd give everything I am to just feel somethin'," could be considered an oxymoron because if you were to give everything you wouldent be able to feel anything

  1. Three of three assignments complete. Some nice imagery in your descriptive paragraph. More parallel structure in your college application would help. You need to proofread all assignments more carefully to pick up obvious errors such as capitals at the beginning of sentences. 27/36
