Breakeven Analysis in Life

We cannot be too calculating in 
some aspects of life. 
Don't try to achieve a breakeven account, 
with a profit or 
loss sense learnt 
from those accounting subjects at universities.

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing

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

'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 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 break even, even, no

And what am I going 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 one's leaving)

I'm falling to pieces

('Cause when a heart breaks no it don't break even)

Oh you got his heart and my heart and none of the pain

You took your suitcase, I took the blame

Now I'm tryna 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 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

No it don't break, no it don't break even, 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 (oh, I'm falling, falling) yeah

I'm falling to pieces

(One 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

Golden Brown - The Stranglers

The song writer of 'Golden Brown' says that 

"the song works on two levels. 

It's about heroin and also about a girl and essentially 

the lyrics describe how both provided him with pleasurable times."

The song was released in 1982.

after forty years, the song gives me 

different messages.

Golden brown means more to me as 

the colour of a cup of coffee or a piece of bread,

when I am listening to this song 

during my breadfast time!

Golden Brown - The Stranglers 

Golden brown, texture like sun

Lays me down, with my mind she runs

Throughout the night, no need to fight

Never a frown with golden brown

Every time, just like the last

On her ship tied to the mast

To distant lands takes both my hands

Never a frown with golden brown

Golden brown, finer temptress

Through the ages she's heading west

From far away, stays for a day

Never a frown with golden brown

Never a frown with golden brown

Never a frown with golden brown (never a frown with golden brown)

Never a frown with golden brown (never a frown with golden brown)

Never a frown (never a frown)

Never a frown (with golden brown)

With golden brown (with golden brown)

With golden brown

To Find Reason to Live

In this chaotic time,

better find a reason to live and 

just live by it, 

you don't need anyone else's approval. 

This chosen reason, 

will rarely overlap with others'.

Chinese Translation

在這個紛亂無常的時日，

找一個理由活著，

就依它安身立命，也不需別人認同。

因為這一個理由，多數不與別人的重疊。

Art Garfungal - Finally find a reason 

Finally found a reason to live,

No words can fill my head.

Finally, here at ease, I'm within

The light that fills my head.

And I finally found a reason to live,

And I never knew the way to begin.

Waiting on a wish in a well,

That day may never come.

I've been known to follow my mind,

Those days are far behind.

And I finally found a reason to live,

And I never knew the way to begin.

But now that I see your face,

My world is a better place.

For how can I ever leave you from my world,

Your world?

Finally found a feeling that's real,

In you, in me, I feel.

Time is just a turn of the wheel,

The way to love revealed.

And I finally found a reason to live,

And I never knew the way to begin.

But now that I see your face,

My world is a better place.

For how can I ever leave you from my world,

Your world?
