Alliteration

"Pave Paradise" by Have Heart is a good song to look for alliteration in. The song starts "How many miles," and many miles is the first example of consonance. The next line has the phrase "four same faces" and thats another example of consonance. "Have me praying for the places that will leave me one minute to my fucking self," is the next two lines and theres two more examples of alliteration in there with the letter p and the letter m. The first two lines from the chorus "When there's a million more miles to roam, I think of the life left for me back home" theres two more examples of alliteration with the letters l and m. The next line says "a paradise to watch the greener grass grow" which has three g's in a row.
