                                                     Visual Motifs (underlined)
                            (chorus)
                            I don’t want
      Repetition            I don’t want your love
                            You don’t give               Rhyme
                            You don’t give enough

                            Verse 1
                                                         Mise-en-scene
                            So I said to myself
Repeated later in                                        (in red)
                            Early one day
song but in                 I’m gonna pack my bags
different tense             I’m gonna get away
                            Cos, you don’t love me now
                            ‘n’ you din’t love me then
   Fragmented Time          And so my friend
   (Green = Past            This is how it ends
   Black = Present)
I Don’t Want Lyrics Analysis:

                     Verse 2                                Mise-en-
                     So I packed my bags                    scene (in red)
                     Gonna get away today
                     But you woke up and begged       Rhym
                     Me to stay                       e
                     But I saw in your eyes
                     The same old lies
                                                 Theme represented
                     When I’m gone
                     You’ll get a big surprise
                                                         ‘Surprise’ could be
                     Verse 3                             empty bed
                     I’m leaving now at the break of
                     day
                     Get in my car and get away
Breaking off from    Can’t stay here with our tears
The relationship     Gotta go and lose my fears
                     The hardest steps I’ve ever
                     made
                     Took me away from this place
                     I need a new life
                     Where I don’t see your face.
