  1. Examples of Fig. Lang. In "Holland Road" By Mumford and Sons • Emma Slugantz

  2. Lyrics So I was lost, go count the cost, Before you go to the holland road, With your heart like a stone you spared no time in lashing out, And I knew your pain and the effect of my shame, but you cut me down, you cut me down, And I will not tell the thoughts of hell That carried me home from the Holland road With my heart like a stone and I put up no fight To your callous mind, and from your corner you rose to cut me down, you cut me down,

  3. Lyrics So I hit my low, but little did I know that would not be the end, From the holland road well I rose and I rose, and I paid less time, To your callous mind, and I wished you well as you cut me down, you cut me down, But I'll still believe though there's cracks you'll see, When I'm on my knees I'll still believe, And when I've hit the ground, neither lost nor found, If you'll believe in me I'll still believe But I'll still believe though there's cracks you'll see, When I'm on my knees I'll still believe, And when I've hit the ground, neither lost nor found, If you'll believe in me I'll still believe

  4. Figurative Language • Assonance: "So I was lost, so count the cost" It has O sound. • "So I hit my low, but little did I know" it has the O sound which makes it rhyme. • And "When I hit the ground, neither lost or found" Has the 'Ound' sound which rhymes

  5. Figurative Language Con. • Simile: "Heart like a stone" Compares a heart to a stone using like. • Personification: "The thoughts of hell that carried me home" Thought can't carry, therefore its bringing life thoughts

  6. Explanation of Song • I think "Holland Road" is a song about a certain someone who is going through a very difficult song in their life, and needs someone to believe in them so they can move past the hard time, I believe that the Holland Road represents life.

  7. The End
