Culture Shock. (Check Yes Juliet: By We the Kings)

Check Yes Juliet, By: We the Kings

Check yes, Juliet
Are you with me?
Rain is falling down on the sidewalk
I won,t go, until you come outside

Check yes, Juliet
Kill the limbo
I'll keep tossing rocks at your window
There's no turning back for us tonight

Lace up your shoes
(A-oh, a-oh)
Here's how we do

Run, baby, run
Don't ever look back
They'll tear us apart
If you give them the chance
(Give them the chance)
Don't sell your heart
Don't say we're not meant to be
Run, baby, run
Forever we'll be
You and me

Check yes, Juliet
I'll be waiting
Wishing, wanting yours for the taking
Just sneak out
And don't tell a soul goodbye

Check yes, Juliet
Here's the countdown
Three, two, one
Now fall in my arms
Now they can change the locks
Don't let them change your mind

Lace up your shoes
(A-oh, A-oh)
Here's how we do

Run, baby, run
Don't ever look back
They'll tear us apart
If you give them the chance
(give them the chance)
Don't sell your heart
Don't say we're not meant to be
Run, baby, run
Forever we'll be
You and me

We're flying through the night
We're flying through the night
Way up high
The view from here is getting better
With you by my side

Run, baby, run
Don't ever look back
They'll tear us apart
If you give them the chance
(Give them the chance)
Don't sell your heart
Don't say we're not meant to be
Run, baby, run
Forever we'll be

Run, baby, run
Don't ever look back
They'll tear us apart
If you give them the chance
(Give them the chance)
Don't sell your heart
Don't say we're not meant to be
Run, baby, run
Forever we'll be
You and me
You and me
You and me

The song Check Yes Juliet by We the Kings, is clearly making a referance to the novel Romeo and Juliet, its easy to see this for many reasons. First of all, the iconic name Juliet was used, making the listener automatically think of the romantic story. Also, the lyrics are speaking about two people in love in modern times, who want to be together but due to the influence and opinions of others are having to make a choice to run away. Which is the only way for their love to work. This can be simply related back to the novel because the Capulet and Montague families are ememies, but their two children are in love despite all feuds.
