I have a project where i have to pick two songs for each act of Romeo and Juliet. The lyrics have to fit in with the story line. I have to explain why i picked those songs. Can anybody help me?

right, so edited for your details, here are some other suggestions:
How about U2: Where the Streets Have No Name ? Y'know, to take a romanticized version of their suicide.
or
HIM: Join Me (creepy song, but if you're looking for a creepy interpretation, it would go nicely)
or
haha, Teenage Dirtbag, by Wheatus. Y'know, class difference, doomed relationship, all that
or
Understanding In a Car Crash, by Thursday. A lot of it doesn't fit, but some of the bits do. So...
also, what's the one by John Mellencamp? y'know, young love, young death. I don't remember, but I feel like there is one.

I think a good song for it would be
Gloria Estefan: I'll Do Anything For you
Ya know the whole drinking the poison and stuff.
Also I think another good song would be
Dolly Parton: I Will Always Love You

OHMYGAH.
I'M READING THAT IN MY ENGLISH CLASS RIGHT NOW!
Maybe...
"Lost Without U" by Robin Thicke?
That might be good because it's kind of like Romeo telling Juliet that he loves her and that he's "lost without" her.
Makes sense, I think.

The Who "Teenage Wasteland"
Wanted to add:
"Follow you into the Dark" Death Cab for Cutie
which can be found here:

This song would be perfect when they both decide to drink the poison to, "follow you into the dark."
Actually, a lot of Deah Cab songs would be good.
"Heart is an empty room"
Hope this helps.
