Break Even

My cousin was an actress
She tasted the good life
And it didnt taste to good
It broke her down it left her dry and kept her dead broke
She said I'd only need some money to keep the wolves at bay, I cant go on this way
She said I'm just trying to break even
I'm just trying to break even
If money doesnt own you, then why are you so down
Is it cause your broke
Does it really matter if all you see is green
Now I could really use some money
To keep my family fed I know that love's not dead
I'm just trying to break even
I'm just trying to break even
While the world ends around us
We do our best to look away
Its just too real for me
If you go broke your out of luck and thats just how it is
None of us can spare some
Money
To keep you off the street
We have to save ourselves
I'm just trying to break even
I'm just trying to break even
