Script, The - Breakeven Lyrics






I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just praying to a god that I don't believe in
'Cause I got time while she got freedom
'Cause when a heart breaks, no, it don't break even

Her best days will be some of my worst
She finally met a man that's gonna put her first
While I'm wide awake she's no trouble sleeping
'Cause when a heart breaks no it don't break even, even, no

What am I supposed to do
When the best part of me was always you?
And what am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up and you're OK?
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces

They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
'Cause she's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when a heart breaks no it don't break even, even, no

And what am I gonna do
When the best part of me was always you?
And what am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up and you're OK?

I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
('Cause when a heart breaks, no, it don't break even)

Oh, you got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame
Now I'm tryna make sense of what little remains
'Cause you left me with no love and no love to my name

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just praying to a god that I don't believe in
'Cause I got time while she got freedom
'Cause when a heart breaks, no, it don't break
No, it don't break
No, it don't break even, no

What am I gonna do
When the best part of me was always you?
And what am I supposed to say
When I'm all choked up and you're OK?
(Oh glad you're okay now)

I'm falling to pieces
I'm falling to pieces
(Oh, I'm falling, falling)
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
('Cause when a heart breaks, no, it don't break even)

Oh, it don't break even, no
Oh, it don't break even, no
Oh, it don't break even, no

    02/2020 Love Rules Always...x

  2. I.... R....

    Nobody feels worst during a breakup than the dude. 😔 I feel like us dudes got it bad. 😞

  3. A.... L....

    Yea
    I sang this below my ex bfs window, and he called the cops. He waited til after I finished the chorus though. Ever the gentleman.
    I miss him, I dont do that kind of shit for just anyone now. Seems romantic in the movies, but I found out otherwise.

    Anyways, great song. 🧡🧡

  4. H.... c....

    When I was 4 I used to think it’s “I’m calling to Ethan” but it’s I’m falling to pieces!

  5. F.... V....

    Basically a summary of my junior year of High School

  6. J.... J....

    I always replace "Choked up" with 'fucked up".. It just feels better.

  7. M.... P....

    February 2020?

  8. A.... ....

    Just got into a breakup recently
    and this song relate to my situation
    I MISS AND LOVE YOU !!!! PLEASE LOVE AND MOVE ON !!!

  9. W.... K....

    I love the script, fall out boy, train, imagine dragons, and 21 pilots

  10. R.... P....

    I can't believe how can this Superhit song stay away from me since almost 10 years.

  11. J.... 7....

    Goddamn I love Music!!!! I love this track!!

    I still listen to The Fray- “how to save a life” or “over my head” or “you found me” all 3 are great songs.

    Mazzy Star - “Fade into you” Hope Sandoval’s vocal is absolutely haunting on that track!

    Snow Patrol - “chasing cars” is good too, well written track

    The Verve Pipe - “The Freshman” timeless classic man!

    Goo Goo Dolls - “Iris” song is crazy good, staple of the 90’s!

    Train - “drops of Jupiter”

    Vanessa Carlton - “a thousand miles” the Live version from the Daily Download, remember that show on Fuse? That performance tears me up, search it, its on YouTube!! Vanessa is so talented, bad bitch on the piano!! Great vocal, shit gets me every time


    Lady Gaga - “million reasons” if you don’t think Gage is talented, Go watch it right now, she fucking kills it!! Go watch the live performance on Howard Sterns Sirus XM Radio show, im telling you it is nothing short of Amazing, I had tears in my eyes, I recommend checking it out immediately!!

    Catfish & the bottlemen - “LongShot” yes, this is one of my favorite songs right now

    Cold War Kids - “First”

    BadFlower- “Ghost” love this track, a lot!!

    The Strumbellas - “Spirts”

    Ryan Adams -“To Be Young”

    Blue October- “Bleed Out”

    Eagle Eye Cherry - “save tonight”
    One of the most recognizable songs of the 90’s

    “Take this wine & drink with me......let’s delay our misery”

    All these songs stay on my playlist!! And many many more!! I spend at least 2-3 hours a day listening to music, once i put on my headphones I kinda drift off into my own little world... it’s fantastic, it’s like taking a short vacation from the shores of everyday life.

    Music......it’s important to me, music can change your mood & fend off depression. It can improve blood flow,, lower your levels of stress-related hormones & ease pain. Listening to music is very beneficial!

  13. R.... ....

    She said those same words on the first letter she gave me "what I'll do without you" and then shit hit the fan I'm here drunk thinking where I went wrong. She says I was the best and treated her better than anyone else but she needs time to think. I'm so confused

    Anyone notice Danny is wearing a similar outfit from Nothing at the end? It looks like this video ties into Nothing right after it finishes. Thought it was pretty cool lol

  41. e.... v....

    When your happy, you enjoyed the music but when your sad you understand the lyrics.

  42. M.... S....

    I’m 33 years old and I never thought I’d be falling to pieces yet again... they say bad things happen for a reason but this one I just can’t figure out. 💔

    M.... G....

    Madison Gaunt Yeah the video is pretty good for the time.

  53. M.... G....

    This song - 🥺

  54. D.... P....

    This song gives me an idea of a parody for Manchester City (the football club I support)

    🎵🎵
    We’re 14 points behind LFC
    We’ve dropped points where we’re not supposed to
    We got Mendy and they got Robbo
    So defense frailty is a major issue

    Their best days will be some of my worse
    They finally got their best starting 11 for success
    While we dropped some points they have no trouble winning
    Out of Europe, our hearts are broken, broken, no

    What am I supposed to do when the best defenders are all of theirs? And
    Who am I supposed to play without Laporte and Robbo-type left back?
    We need some new defenders
    We need some new defenders

    19-20 isn’t really our season
    Liverpool’s now dominating England
    They’ve improved while we’re still grieving
    Out of Europe, our hearts are broken, broken, no

    What am I supposed to do when the best defenders are all of theirs? And
    Who am I supposed to play without Laporte and Robbo-type left back?
    We need some new defenders
    We need some new defenders
    We need some new defenders (defenders like Trent, Robbo, and Van Dijk)
    We need some new defenders (cause without them our defense is shambles)

    They’ve won 20 games, tied once, and haven’t lost yet
    61 points in 21 games
    Breaking our record 2 years ago
    Oh, cause they’ve beaten everyone, but West Ham and Man U

    We’re 14 points behind LFC
    We’ve dropped points where we’re not supposed to
    We got Mendy and they got Robbo
    So defense frailty is a major issue
    It’s a major issue, no

    What am I supposed to do when the best defenders are all of theirs? And
    Who am I supposed to play without Laporte and Robbo-type left back?
    We need some new defenders
    We need some new defenders
    We need some new defenders (defenders like Trent, Robbo, and Van Dijk)
    We need some new defenders (cause without them our defense is shambles)
    We can’t chase Liverpool
    We can’t chase Liverpool

    2009... 2020. I liked this song with my heart as a cover of #The Rose and now i see the original one.

  56. P.... N....

    This song been playing in my head all day. My fiance and I are so wide apart emotionally I can feel a breakup coming. I can tell she has someone else but won't admit coz of the way she is treating me... Or maybe she doesn't but if so she doesn't care less about me. We are in the process of starting to plan a wedding but she doesn't care. I've really tried to make her life beautiful. Hers and her daughter. But once again I found myself in the hands of someone who enjoys to see me in pain.
    Totally falling to pieces.
    The only thing I hope is to sleep and never wake up again.
    Maybe there's peace in the afterlife.

    P.... N....

    you will get through this, I have faith in you. Please don't give up on the prospect of life and joyous experiences. Perhaps you and your fiance shall resolve your issues through open communication, and if not, there is more to life than her. Strive to see the beauty in this world of chaos as we all should. I wish you the best of luck

    P.... N....

    Hope everything works out, blessings to you ♥️♥️♥️

    P.... N....

    Please don’t give up on yourself. We lost too many people in 2019. I don’t want to see more in 2020.

  57. M.... V....

    Amazing songs by Amazing Band as always 💕💕

  58. T.... C....

    It’s 2020 and this shit still hits hard

  59. L.... ....

    never realised how sad this song was until i came back to it a couple years later :’(

  60. F.... c....

    This is motherfucking sad man, we end a relationship thinking we are always going to be on top, up until the other person moves on and finds somebody else, then we fall into peaces, then we find somebody else again and start it all over lol. Just don't kill yourselves guys, you'll going to get over it, trust me.

  61. U.... K....
