"Break Me" is a reworking of an earlier demo, "[[Ever Again]]." It was later reworked again as the demos "[[Stand Up]]" and "[[You're Holding Me Back]]". "Break Me" was demoed by Cuomo at S.I.R. Rehearsal Studios and was considered part of Cuomo's "A-list" of songs to focus on. Ultimately, however, the song was not recorded by [[Weezer]] when the band entered the studio to record ''Make Believe''. | "Break Me" is a reworking of an earlier demo, "[[Ever Again]]."
