I think the juxtaposition of "having fun is my reason for living" and "give me a break" reveals the hidden meaning of the line: "give me a reason for living". Because, as we all know, having fun as a way of life is soul-crushingly unfulfilling.
I agree. But 'give me a break' can also be interpreted as "leave me alone" which implies that there is someone not letting you fulfill your own personal whims. We cannot be truly happy if we have to bend for the whims of others but we also don't want to be alone. Our own desire to be alone is constantly competing with our desire to do what we want when we want.
