Journey’s Text Analysis
Across the Oceans by New Empire
Across the Oceans released by Australian rock band New Empire in 2011 is full of lyrics which can be seen as relatable to journeys, with symbolism of an emotional journey and even an imaginative journey if you are to look deeper into it spread throughout. As songs take you into a world of your own, it will depend on the person when it comes to interpreting what it is about.
The way I interrupt it is that the song is about a person trying to help or encourage another to get through something, perhaps a hard time in their life and to find themselves. Offering their friendship and support then asking for the same in return.
