Abstract

This study explores the metaphorical representation of pain and memory in Taylor Swift’s song All Too Well, a work widely regarded as an emotionally intense lyrical narrative. The objective of the study is to examine how Swift utilizes figurative language—particularly metaphor—to convey themes of emotional trauma and recollection within the context of a failed romantic relationship. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, this study employs close reading and metaphor analysis based on Conceptual Metaphor Theory (Lakoff & Johnson, 1980). The findings reveal that Swift constructs a poetic narrative built upon eight primary metaphors that transform abstract feelings into vivid, sensory imagery. These metaphors not only shape the listener’s emotional perception but also function as narrative devices that give structure to the song’s temporal shifts and emotional progression. The significance of these results lies in their illustration of how contemporary song lyrics serve as a medium for literary expression and emotional articulation. In conclusion, All Too Well exemplifies the function of metaphor in mediating personal trauma through artful linguistic choices that resonate with collective human experience.

Abstract

This study explores the pragmatic dimensions of apology and emotional plea in the lyrics of Boyz II Men's “On Bended Knee”. As an emblematic R&B song from the 1990s, the lyrics are rich in expressive speech acts that convey regret, longing, and emotional vulnerability. The objective of this study is to analyze the types and functions of speech acts, particularly focusing on apology and pleading expressions using the framework of speech act theory and politeness strategies proposed by Brown and Levinson. This research applies a qualitative descriptive method with textual analysis as the main tool. The results indicate that the lyrics contain multiple expressive and commissive acts, such as requests, promises, and repeated apologies, demonstrating a strong emotional appeal. These elements construct a discourse of emotional surrender and remorse, reflecting key features of interpersonal communication in popular music. The study contributes to the understanding of how language in music can perform social functions beyond aesthetic value, particularly in articulating relational dynamics and emotional expression.
