Song Lyrics Dealing with the Characters

Song Lyrics Having to Do With the Characters
Read on to find out which!
I tried to pick out two songs per character, but I couldn't quite find enough. So, the last two characters only have one song.

                                                                            ~Romeo~

This song says alot of what I think Romeo was feeling after he killed Tybalt and he realized it was wrong.

"In The End"

by LINKIN PARK

(It starts with one)

One thing I don't know why

It doesn’t even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme

To explain in due time

All I know

time is a valuable thing

Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings

Watch it count down to the end of the day

The clock ticks life away

It’s so unreal

Didn’t look out below

Watch the time go right out the window

Trying to hold on but didn’t even know

Wasted it all just to

Watch you go

I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when 

I tried so hard

And got so far

But in the end

It doesn't even matter

I had to fall

To lose it all

But in the end

It doesn't even matter

One thing, I don’t know why

It doesn’t even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme

To remind myself how

I tried so hard

In spite of the way you were mocking me

Acting like I was part of your property

Remembering all the times you fought with me

I’m surprised it got so (far)

Things aren’t the way they were before

You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore

Not that you knew me back then

But it all comes back to me

In the end

You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when 

I tried so hard

And got so far

But in the end

It doesn’t even matter

I had to fall

To lose it all

But in the end

It doesn’t even matter

I've put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go

For all this

There’s only one thing you should know

I've put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go

For all this

There’s only one thing you should know

I tried so hard

And got so far

But in the end

It doesn’t even matter

I had to fall

To lose it all

But in the end

It doesn’t even matter

This next song I think really deals with Romeo's feelings for Juliet. To me, it talks about his love for her.

"Love Song Requiem"
by TRADING YESTERDAY

Emily will find a better place to fall asleep
She belongs to fairy tales that I could never be
The future haunts with memories that I could never have
And hope is just a stranger, wondering how it got so bad

I die each time you look away
My heart, my life, will never be the same
This love will take my everything
One breath, one touch, will be the end of me

You could be the final straw that brings me back to earth
Ever-waiting airports full of the love that you deserve
Wishing I could find a way to wash away the past
Knowing that my heart will break, but at least the pain will last

I die each time you look away
My heart, my life, will never be the same
This love will take my everything
One breath, one touch, will be the end of me

Emily will find a better place to fall asleep
Maybe she will save me in the oceans of her dream
And maybe someday love
Maybe someday love

~Juliet~

This first song talks about what Juliet was feeling after Romeo was banished, how upset she must have been, and the first verse of it, I think, how nobody really seems to know her anymore.

"Bring Me To Life"

by Evanescence

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?

Leading you down into my core where I’ve become so numb

Without a soul my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold 

until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up)

Wake me up inside

(I can’t wake up)

Wake me up inside

(Save me)

call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up)

bid my blood to run

(I can’t wake up)

before I come undone

(Save me)

save me from the nothing I’ve become

now that I know what I’m without

you can't just leave me

breathe into me and make me real

bring me to life

(Wake me up)

Wake me up inside

(I can’t wake up)

Wake me up inside

(Save me)

call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up)

bid my blood to run

(I can’t wake up)

before I come undone

(Save me)

save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life

(I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside)

Bring me to life

frozen inside without your touch

Without your love, darling 

only you are the life among the dead

all this time I can't believe I couldn't see

kept in the dark but you were there in front of me

I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems

got to open my eyes to everything

Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul

don't let me die here

there must be something more

bring me to life

(Wake me up)

Wake me up inside

(I can’t wake up)

Wake me up inside

(Save me)

call my name and save me from the dark

(Wake me up)

bid my blood to run

(I can’t wake up)

before I come undone

(Save me)

save me from the nothing I’ve become

(Bring me to life)

I’ve been living a lie, there’s nothing inside 

(Bring me to life)

The second song talks more about how much Juliet loves Romeo, and can't live without him. Ironically, it also somewhat describes her while she is "dead."

"Comatose"

by Skillet

I hate feeling like this

I'm so tired of trying to fight this

I'm asleep and all I dream of

Is waking to you

Tell me that you will listen

Your touch is what I'm missing

And the more I hide I realize I'm slowly losing you

Comatose

I'll never wake up without an overdose of you

[Chorus:]

I don't wanna live

I don't wanna breathe

unless I feel you next to me

you take the pain I feel

waking up to you never felt so real

I don't wanna sleep

I don't wanna dream

'cause my dreams don't comfort me

The way you make me feel

Waking up to you never felt so real

I hate living without you

Dead wrong to ever doubt you

But my demons lay in waiting

Tempting me away

Oh how I adore you

Oh how I thirst for you

Oh how I need you

Comatose

I'll never wake up without an overdose of you

[Chorus]

Breathing life

Waking up

My eyes open up

Comatose

I’ll never wake up without an overdose of you

[Chorus]

Oh how I adore you

Waking up to you never felt so real

Oh how I thirst for you

Waking up to you never felt so real

Oh how I adore you, ohhhh

The way you make me feel

Waking up to you never felt so real

~Friar Laurence~

Friar Laurence's song is ironically, sounding like someone who's plans and plots and everything unravels. 'Ya know, when you get doomsday handed to you in a hand-basket. 

"Waiting For The End"

by LINKIN PARK

This is not the end, this is not the beginning

Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision

But you listen to the tone and the violent rhythm

Though the words sound steady something empty's within them

We say yeah with fists flying up in the air

Like we're holding onto something that's invisible there

Cause we're living at the mercy of the pain and the fear

Until we dead it, forget it, let it all disappear

Waiting for the end to come

Wishing I had strength to stand

This is not what I had planned

It's out of my control

Flying at the speed of light

Thoughts were spinning in my head

So many things were left unsaid

It's hard to let you go

I know what it takes to move on

I know how it feels to lie

All I want to do

Is trade this life for something new

Holding on to what I haven't got

Sitting in an empty room

Trying to forget the past

This was never meant to last

I wish it wasn't so

I know what it takes to move on

I know how it feels to lie

All I want to do

Is trade this life for something new

Holding on to what I haven't got

What was left when that fire was gone

I thought it felt right but that right was wrong

All caught up in the eye of the storm

And trying to figure out what it's like moving on

And I don't even know what kind of things I said

My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead

So I'm picking up the pieces, now where to begin

The hardest part of ending is starting again

All I want to do

Is trade this life for something new

Holding on to what I haven't got

I'm holding on to what I haven't got

I'm holding on to what I haven't got

This is not the end, this is not the beginning

Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision

But you listen to the tone and the violent rhythm

Though the words sound steady something empty's within them

We say yeah with fists flying up in the air

Like we're holding onto something that's invisible there

Cause we're living at the mercy of the pain and the fear

Until we're dead it, forget it let it all disappear

~Paris~

If I were Paris, I would kinda want to know what Juliet thought of me before marrying the girl. Sheesh man. He really has no idea what she thinks of him, so this song is about him trying to figure out what she thought of him.

"The Diary Of Jane"

by Breaking Benjamin

If I had to

I would put myself right beside you

So let me ask

Would you like that?

Would you like that?

And I don't mind

If you say this love is the last time

So now I'll ask

Do you like that?

Do you like that?

No!

Something's getting in the way.

Something's just about to break.

I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane.

So tell me how it should be.

Try to find out what makes you tick.

As I lie down

Sore and sick.

Do you like that?

Do you like that?

There's a fine line between love and hate.

And I don't mind.

Just let me say that

I like that

I like that

Something's getting in the way.

Something's just about to break.

I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane.

As I burn another page,

As I look the other way.

I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane.

So tell me how it should be.

Desperate, I will crawl

Waiting for so long

No love, there is no love.

Die for anyone

What have I become?

Something's getting in the way.

Something's just about to break.

I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane.

As I burn another page,

As I look the other way.

I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane.

So that's it, I guess! :D I hope you agree somewhat with my song choices for each character. Too bad I couldn't think of two songs for both Friar Laurence and Paris! D:
