"Break even" is truly my life wrapped up in one song. Relationships are rarely at a balance so 1 prsn will undoubtedly have the upper hand in the end it all just depends on who can be more cold hearted than the other. The irony of it all is that we teach our lover(s) how 2 hurt us, so who do you blame? You can also choose to close yourself in but then you won't experience happiness at its fullest potential. This song is definitely a classic 4 the ages, and it helps hopeless romantics like me know that I'm not the only 1 going thru stuff like this, which could possibly and hopefully speeds the healing process. Big thanx 2 "The Script"
