Break Even

By far, this is one of the most beautiful songs I have heard.

Here is my rendition.

" Break Even "

The Script

 

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing.

Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in.

Cuz I've got time while you've got freedom.

Cuz when your heart breaks, It don't break even.

Your best days will be some of my worst.

You finally met a girl that's gonna put you first.

Cuz while I'm wide awake, you've no trouble sleeping.

Cuz when a heart breaks, it don't break even.

Tell me...

What am I supposed to do when the best part of me it was always you ?

What am I supoosed 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.

Cuz you've moved on while I'm still grieving.

And when a heart breaks, it don't break even.

Tell me...

What am I gonna do when the best part of me it always you ?

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 still alive but I'm barely breathing.

Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in.

Cuz I've got time while you've got freedom.

Cuz when a heart breaks, it don't break even.

The Garden

Her spirit is on vacation.

Darkness has taken residency where love was evicted.

Looking for beauty in strife with a blind eye.

Trying to find the balance on her beam of life has caused her to slip and fall.

Her face is soaked.

Heart concrete heavy.

Eyes swollen like Tulip Bulbs

But the flowers have died.

She’s wondering if hearts ache less when broken, than when they are ripped out.

Bury Mine.

It’s soiled anyway.

Moon Walk

" You ain't experienced REAL LOVE until you're walking on the moon. "

Pain and Paper

Human relationships were strange. I mean you were with one person for a while, eating and sleeping and living with them, loving them, talking to them, going places together and then it stopped. Then there was a short period when you weren't with anybody, then another woman arrived, and you ate with her and you fucked her, and it all seemed so normal, as if you had been waiting just for her and she had been waiting for you. I never felt right being alone; sometimes it felt good but it never felt right.

Nothing was ever in tune. People just blindly grabbed at whatever there was: communism, health foods, zen, surfing, ballet, hypnotism, group encounters, orgies, biking, herbs, Catholicism, weight-lifting, travel, withdrawal, vegetarianism, India, painting, writing, sculpting, composing, conducting, backpacking, yoga, copulating, gambling, drinking, hanging around, frozen yogurt, Beethoven, Back, Buddha, Christ, carrot juice, suicide, handmade suits, jet travel, New York City, and then it all evaporated and fell apart.

 People had to find things to do while waiting to die.

I guess it was nice to have a choice.

I wanted the whole world or nothing.

The Wait Is Over.

I have anticipated the release of this video and lo and behold, I am not dissapointed. I am loving all the bright colors and the dutty winding.

Chocolate Thunder

Prior to Jaheims long overdue hair-cut, I never really looked twice at him. He got rid of the braids and va-va voom.

Hello Apple, can I take a bite ?

Slurp.

Rude Boy

I can HARDLY wait to see the final cut for Rihannas' new single, Rude Boy. These stills are sex in the form of megapixels.
