Breakeven by the Script

Adjusted lyrics

...

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 breakeven
...

Olivia's P.O.V

Alex was an angel.

Always by my side.

She slept with me at night, dried my tears and chased away my nightmares.

Her freedom from the pain I was suffering was helping me out of the darkness.

And amidst it all the strangest thing happened.

I fell in love with her.

Elliot didn't seem to feel any remorse for what he put me through and so I ignored him.

No matter how much it hurt.

The worst part?

He still held a place in my heart.

However Alex's place was growing larger as it seemed she's taken most of my broken heart into hers to mend it.

She felt my pain so that I wouldn't have to.

...

Her best days will be some of mine as well
I finally met someone that's gonna put me first
While I'm wide awake she has trouble sleeping
'Cause when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven, even, no

...

Alex's P.O.V

Olivia was happier.

She smiled most days and we did things that we used to.

We walked in the park and grabbed coffee at 6am.

We sat on her window ledge rugged up as we watched the snow fall.

Things were slowly changing between us.

I could feel it.

Some nights she still had trouble sleeping and so those nights I would lie awake and hold her.

It was how it should be.

When her heart broke mine did too.

Now that hers was mending I could finally feel the good things again.

...

What am I suppose to 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 okay

...

It took me by surprise.

We were sitting on the cold metal of the fire escape stairs with our gloves, coats, beanies and P.J pants on.

She had her arms around me and was playing with my hair.

A small smile played on my lips and then she was there.

Her face so close to mine and her lips whispering in my ear.

"I love you." She whispered.

"I love you too." I said back.

And then it happened.

What I'd always wanted.

A special piece inside her heart saved and revealed for me.

"I mean...I really love you Lex'. Truly...Not as a friend." She whispered.

I choked as tears welled in my eyes.

"You don't know how long I've imagined you saying that." I smiled.

...
I'm falling to pieces, yeah
I'm falling to pieces

...

Suddenly her mouth was on mine in an explosive kiss like nothing I'd ever felt before.

I melted into her as my hands wound around her neck and hers to my hips.

I was falling to pieces in her arms.

Every wish I had was coming true.

...

They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
Only new love will stop the grieving
And when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven, even, no

...

Olivia's P.O.V

Alex was more beautiful than I'd ever noticed or imagined.

I loved her.

I never thought I could love again.

Especially a woman.

Especially her.

She stopped my bleeding and healed my wounds.

Stayed with me for as long as I wanted.

Now I was thinking that that would be forever.

We left the cold to go inside.

I warmed her just as she warmed my heart.

...

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 okay

...

I led her to bed.

Her body was beautiful.

Golden tresses, blue eyes and alabaster skin all there for me to explore.

But I went slow.

I made every move count.

I kissed her skin and appreciated every inch of her body in turn.

We fell asleep that night.

So peaceful like everything was right.

We both had tears in our eyes and love in our hearts.

We both had what we truly yearned for.

Love and eachother.
