<![CDATA[This research aims to identify metaphors and explain the representation of loss in the song lyrics performed by 周深 on the program 《音乐缘计划2》第二季, namely 《地球没有你》, 《全世界下雨》, and 《告别旅行》. The research uses a qualitative descriptive method with an interpretive approach. The data consist of words, phrases, clauses, and sentences containing metaphorical expressions, collected through documentation and note-taking techniques. The analysis was conducted using Lakoff and Johnson's conceptual metaphor theory through the mapping of the source domain and target domain, and was then interpreted based on Robert A. Neimeyer's Meaning Reconstruction perspective. The research results found 67 data, consisting of 63 metaphorical data and 4 literal/contextual data. The metaphor of loss is represented through images of journeys, breathing, the exhaustion of oxygen, the collapse of footing, silence, living organisms, fireworks, and scenery. From Neimeyer's perspective, these representations demonstrate the processes of sense-making, identity reconstruction, and benefit/significance finding. Loss is not only represented as the end of a relationship and the disruption of emotional stability, but also as a process of understanding separation, reorganizing identity, and finding new meaning from an experience that has come to an end.]]>
