Belonging: Travel and Word Boulevard
The melodic phrase boulevard of low-pitched Dreams is performed by Green Day. The song expresses a persons struggle in finding whither they be tenacious in the journey of life. The titles of the song is ironic to what we would normally associate with the word boulevard with something pleasant, glamorous and full of life its a direct severalize to what we many initially expect. There is no presence of life, apart from the sole(a) individual who notchs the lonely pathway. The boulevard is paved with broken dreams of darkness, of universe isolated and cut off from the rest of the society the city sleeps and non belonging to the outside world.The nonion of belonging to a backside is explored in the poem 10 Mary route by Peter Skrzynecki and in Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green day, 10 Mary Street the metaphor that marked by stability, routine and familiarity and adapting to Australia, we became citizen of soil, that was feeding us and in the process adjusting to their adapti ve family unit. The song opens with the declaration I mountain pass solely this means that on this lonely journey that it has been the only pathway that he has ever known.Essentially the traveller is aware of his reality of populace alone and not knowing where the road goes and that he recognizes that the boulevard has commence his home. the co-relation between these two text is that over a long period of time they puddle used to the customs, in the song they get used to I walk a lonely road, the only on that I have ever known the traveler adapted to the road and how the road has formed his home as well as this song is about soulfulness who wants to find a place where they belong and someone they trust, a good place.The notion of not belonging to a place is explored in the poem Migrant Hostel by Peter Skrzynecki and in Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green day. line 22-23 in Migrant Hostel A barrier at the main supply Sealed off the roadway illustrates the migrants feelin gs of universe separated and alienated, as it cuts them off from the outside the world. The road represents the road to the future were they will start a novel life and their new home. The barrier represents their incarceration which is ironic considering they come here or freedom. The parable in line 25 As it rose and fell standardized a finger pointed in reprimand or confound illustrates that the migrants were not wanted, stresses the lack of tolerance that they encounter the criticism that faces them and their own negative shame about leaving everything behind in order to start a new life. The reprimand and shame that faces them are obstacles to their integration. As the song indicates the traveler had dreams but they have not come to fulfillment.But instead being broken and the boulevard which he aimlessly travels which no one knows his existence or where he belongs. In the song Boulevard of Broken Dreams not belonging to a place is expressed in the repetition of I througho ut the song emphasizes that the traveler is alone I walk a lonely road, I walk this empty street also Where the city sleeps demonstrates that the traveler is isolate during his journey to find his home where he belongs, being excluded from the society.The repetition of the Ah-Ah resonance throughout the song represents the travelers confusion of walking alone with the breakdown of the electric guitar in the song emphasizes that the traveler is frustrated of being segregated from the rest of the world. The frustration is forceful as the tone consistently changes. The song highlights a sense of despondency that an individual may suffer when isolated from others and when dreams fail I walk alone confirms the travelers solitude and human need to walk together and to belongThe contrast of not belong to a place between Migrant Hostel and Boulevard of Broken Dreams is that they both speech about having a dream of belonging to a place, the poem illustrates that they came here to start a new life with a new home and to be free but they are incarcerated by a gate that separates them from freedom and isolation and the song demonstrates the traveler is being ignored as the city sleeps
