Lord Of The Flies- Song pRoject


Song 1
You're gonna go far kid-The Offspring

I believe the meaning of this song is about growing up and experiencing the true darkness in the world “There's someone in your way/And now someone is gonna pay” shows that as you grow older and more mature you will not stop for anything to get your goal. The atmostphere of this song is dark but the artist sings the song in an upbeat way. "now dance f_ker dance man you never had a chance and no one even knew it was really only you" is actually directly related to Lord of the Flies when Simon jumped out of the bush and tried to tell everyone that there was no beast, only to be killed by the rest of the boys thinking he was the beast.

Song 2
Teenagers-MCR

I believe this song is about teenagers and how corrupted and uncaring the can be, I think it saying that teenagers only care about themselves and nobody else,(“They can care less as long as,Someone will bleed”)This can be seen in some of the boys in Lord of the Flies near the end of the book where they murder piggy with seemingly no remorse.

Song 3
Lord of the Flies-Iron Madien

This song was written directly about The Lord of the Flies, all of the lyrics completely describe the boys “Excited but scary to believe what we've become” is showing that the boys have completely changed into savages and are scared aswell as excited at that. The atmosphere of the song is very dark just like towards the end of the book. This song does an amazing job of summing up the book Lord of the Flies.
