overall the lyrics are in the basic stucture of standard music and since the lyrics are translated to english there is little not any rhyming but in some of the lyrics they use some repetition and onomatopoeia to enhance the feel of the song the lyrics are the regular length as are in most songs which doesn't have much impact on the song.

structure

overall the tone and mood of this song is as almost as a cry for help the tone of how the lyrics are expressed make the lyrics depressing/gloomy and also gives it this sense of distress the since the tone refects on the mood its is of course a dark and hopeless feeling. They use these dence word like "no song affects me anymore crying out a silent cry." just by this alone shows how this song feels/sounds.

the theme/message of this song is a very powerful one because it is expressing a artists perspective or fear of loosing their passion that the music they make will not touch or move them as before or even at all, but once they come to the realization that music is the only thing they have as expressed throughout the lyrics.

theme and message

The song has a very tense and somewhat of a negitive emothional feel. In some ways you could even say it sounds somewhat for a classical feel (probably to showcase or make the feel of the ballet of swan lake) the music has a moderate tempo and beat that helps express the lyrics more passionately.

the song

in the music video helps show/ epress the theme/message the artist are trying to show ways more. The choreography this is artistic and sharp but graceful style and they show movements of crawling or falling to show this hopelessness and in ways the burden that they are carrying. They also use the shadows to repercent the black swan in them.

the music VIDEO

A major influence this song was based by was the ballet of swan lake but also from the arists prosepective loosing a passion for a thing you used to love can usually be a common thing amoung artists and fr bts they have gone through alot in their career of course like all artist they have supportive and loving fans around the world but we never really put to context the negitive side of this career as many artist bts have gotten a lot hate or have experienced a lot of negative thing from things like their looks to even their race anybody could be brought down by any negative thing in life and that is what is bts were trying to express overall.

i personally chose this song because of course my liking towards the artists but also the theme and message this song carrys sometime we can all relate to losing passion just because we have been brought down by the world and I feel that it is important to note that loosing your passion for something you love shouldn't keep you from trying it again after you have prossesed and set you mind straight and if you still feel the same way there is no same in trying something new.
