Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just prayin' 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
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, yeah
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 breakeven 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 OK
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other ones leaving)
I'm falling to pieces
('Cause when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
Oh you got his heart and my heart and none of the pain
You took your suitcase, I took the blame
Now I'm try'na make sense of what little remains ooh
'Cause you left me with no love and no love to my name
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed 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 breakeven no
What am I gonna do when the best part of me was always you and
What am I suppose to say when I'm all choked up and you're OK
(Oh glad your okay now)
I'm falling to pieces yeah
I'm falling to pieces yeah
I'm falling to pieces
(One still in love while the other ones leaving)
I'm falling to pieces yeah
('Cause when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
Oh it don't breakeven no
Oh it don't breakeven no
Oh it don't breakeven no
The Script's song "Breakeven" talks about heartbreak and the struggle to move on after a painful breakup. The first verse describes an individual who is alive but barely breathing, praying to a God he doesn't believe in to help ease his pain. He observes that he has time while his ex-partner has the freedom to move on from the relationship. The chorus reveals the individual's inner turmoil, asking "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?" The line "I'm falling to pieces" is constantly repeated throughout the chorus, indicating the agony and pain the character is going through.
In the second verse, the singer admits that the person he loves has moved on while he's still grieving their relationship. The chorus is repeated, emphasizing the main theme of the song. The bridge suggests that although they say bad things happen for a reason, the pain of heartbreak can't be alleviated with wise words. The last chorus reminisces about the past, stating that his ex-partner has his heart and the new man's heart, leaving the singer with no love and no sense of self.
Overall, "Breakeven" is a melancholic yet powerful track that beautifully captures the after-effects of broken-heartedness.

@@tafzilemani5794 Poem: (Breaking free form being deceived)
Hollywood graveyard = empty graves and tombs.
Characters still on stage playing rolls.
Public crying after their fake deaths are announced.
Advanced A.I fooling mankind day and night.
We all admire their lives – don`t we?
Is it hard to believe that all of it is nothing more then a digital fakery?
The bloodline keeping their wealth and power among themselves.
Yet we dare to believe -
- the hollywood stars to be real.
