Answer 2

Hyperbole

Step-by-step explanation:

In literature, hyperbole is a way of speaking or writing in an exaggerated manner, used to emphasize, to add humor or to gain attention on something. In this language, it is common to use words or phrases that are obviously false. The excerpt uses this figurative language because it uses exaggerated phrases that are obviously false like then I lost my head entirely, in order to emphasize how mad and out of control the speaker was.
