Overall, this project took a lot of time. I ran into even more difficulties than last time because I had to get my computer reimaged, and I lost all of my annotations. I had to restart my project. When I finally finished, I was glad because I'm ready to move on. On to a new project!

The Summer Set
The Summer Set has always written songs that I can either relate to, or they contain catchy rhythms and lyrics that are impossible to get out of your head. For my 20% time, I am analyzing the lyrics of each song for different literary devices. After I finish that, I'm going to write my review of the entire album. Knowing that The Summer Set is my favorite band, this is going to be a breeze.
I used the writing standard 11.R.3.1: Students can analyze and explain literary devices within text.
Overall, I wanted to be a little farther than I am now. I ran into multiple difficulties because all of the websites that I came across were blocked. In order to get the lyrics, I used my home computer and emailed it to myself. It's taking a lot longer than I thought it would. I'm going to continue to this project because I'm not even close to being done.
About a Girl
Come close now, whisper a secret
A story about a girl.
No, you don't need to know what her name is,
but I wrote about her before.
I wish that I were cigarettes.
Tucked down deep in her pockets.
She'd light me up, let me swing from her lips
Like a circus show.
This ain't a show, no
It's a song for a girl.
She's making my head spin,
Making me slur my words.
This is a song about a girl.
This is a song about love,
Love, la la la love.
I won't forget her name.
I'll always love her the same, my love
Love, la la la la la la love.
This is all for you.
Strike the match, burn me down'
Til I'm nothing.
Like a vision, she swims through the sheets on the mattress.
She sets me on fire through the afterglow
Like a firework show.
This ain't a show, no
It's a song for a girl.
She's making my head spin,
Making me slur my words.
This is a song about a girl.
This is a song about love,
Love, la la la love.
I won't forget her name.
I'll always love her the same, my love
Love, la la la la la la love.
This is all for you.
If you want promises,
Baby, I got 'em.
Bought a plastic ring if you want it.
'Cause we're growin' up, girl
But damn, we’re still young.
If we jump, we can fall.
If we jump, we can fall in love
Love, la la la love.
I won't forget her name,
Always love her the same, my love.
Love, la la la la la la love.
This is all for you.
Oh, my love, this is all for love.
La la la la la la love.
This is all for you.
