break even

"cause when a heart breaks
no, it don't break even"

The Script - Breakeven
The Script (2009)

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 okay
And I'm falling to pieces
Yeah
I'm falling to pieces

They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise word's 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
Oh

What am I gonna 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 okay
And I'm falling to pieces
Yeah
I'm falling to pieces
Yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One's still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
('Cause when a heart breaks)
(No)
(It don't breakeven)

Oh
You've got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase
I took the blame
Now I'm trynna make sense of what little remains
Oh
'Cause you left me with no love
With 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 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 okay
(Oh)
(Knowing that you're okay now)
And I'm falling to pieces
Yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(Oh)
(I'm falling)
(Falling)
Yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One's 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
