<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the use of figurative language in Olivia Rodrigo’s song lyrics as a means of expressing emotion. Using a qualitative approach with a document analysis method, the researcher examines the types of figurative language found in three of Rodrigo’s popular songs: Driver License, Enough for You, and Happier. The analysis reveals five main types of figurative language used: metaphor, imagery, simile, hyperbole, and symbolism. Each of these elements enhances the emotional depth and appeal of the lyrics, creating a strong connection between the singer and the audience.
