"The Tribes ocean splash was rising the tide"
"As the East vs. West winds blew, causing two Legends to Fall like maple leaves from escalated beef"
"And so much ice on ya body that you can get pneumonia"
The song is chock full of metaphors.
Second part of the first one and the second one are similes. You get an F- on my paper.

Whatever. That doesn't change the fact that there are some metaphors in the song.

American Pie is still the very best suggestion.
"Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap
"Yellow Ledbetter" by Pearl Jam
I dunno what else

Is that the best suggestion because it is only the best you've heard?

Thanks for the help, but I'm about half done now, and what you did doesn't really fulfill what I need to do.
This is fucking harder than I thought, writing a paper about metaphors essentially requires you to avoid using metaphors to describe the metaphors, which is nearly fucking impossible. I don't know if what I just said makes sense really, but it's hard to say what I'm want. It's amazing how many metaphors are taken for granted, which is kind of completely against their original intent.

Don't use metaphors.
Use similes.

I can't. Similes are lame as fuck anyway.
Merkin: I almost used Schism, but it's just so open and I don't feel like dealing with that kinda shit right now. Just wanted something that's cut and dry but I like.

Ironically, the statement "Similes are lame as fuck" is a simile.

I know this is off topic and I don't really care if you dislike the beatles, but what do you mean by that statement?

I mean I'm not completely happy with the way popular music has developed, and the Beatles are highly responsible for this. Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike the Beatles per say, I just don't like them as much as most.
