Song Analysis 1 Kathleen Gallahue
Justin Timberlake incorporates symbolism in his song "Mirrors" by showing a reflection of the girl in his mirror.When he looks though it her face appears behind him"its like your my mirror'' she is his whole world. That his mind is stuck on her when he looks though a mirror he always sees her.Letting her go out of his mind is far from possible,''Im lookin right at the other half of me", when shes gone apart of him is gone.No one can replace the love he has for her,''the vacancy that sat in my heart is a space that you hold" She is his everything in this world. That my love for her will get stronger and stronger every time i see my reflection. He sees something in her that only he can see. That everything about her is perfect,''cause i don't wanna lose you now'' he doesn't want to let her go
Tone is displayed by his devotion to this girl he loves to death,''You reflect me, i love that about you'' that he just sees a prefect girl from the start to finish. No one could be better than her ''i couldn't get any bigger, with anyone else beside me'', he gets a warm vibe from her that he couldn't get from anyone else. That all his effort and focus is completely on her always.Nothing will never get in the way of that happiness and love he has for her,''baby,keep your eyes on me'' don't forget about me.That he wants to be in her life forever, ''You, are the love of my life, that he is completely in love with her For her perfect girl she is. That to him there is nothing wrong with her. That he loves everything about her.
Alliteration is also shown thought the song by him confessing that ''You are the love of my life'' That there is no one else he wants than her.How he doesn't want to lose her, ''cause i don't wanna lose you now'' That he cant be without her again because his heart would break.That she is always looking at him though his mirror,''My mirror is staring back to me''.also to put his emotions all in to the relationship to be the best man he could ever be. To always be there for her when she would need him. To always love her forever and ever. Put her first all the time when he is in the relationship.
This song reveals all his emotions towards her that her could see himself with her forever.That he has put his heart out on the line. Also telling her that she is the love of his life. Knowing she could be safe and protected with where ever they are. That she can be as honest with him and tell him how she feels all the time
