Well it was late night summer time you said let's go for a ride It was a mad affair, But I knew you wouldn’t mind She said look, don't take offense but you're quite rough for a girl And I said, yeah well you may be right why don't you give it a whirl It was late night summer time She dragged a foot in the sand I knew she wanted to and I could make it feel grand I said hey girl do your parents know? And is that boyfriend just for show I'll gladly take you there but lets just get a few things clear I know, I’m not your type And I’m not the type that your parents like And yeah, I sometimes cuss But girl I think you like it rough RAP It was late night sum your boy was chilling with his ‘posse’ You start talking bout De Generes, I’m thinking bout De Rossi And I’m thinking you are a betty and I am a betty Everytime you come around I start breathing heavy Breathing heavy Now my feet they be unsteady And the feeling gets a spreading It’s the one you’ll be dreading But don’t be the type that will just deny it Katie Perry kissed a girl and she said she liked it I know that you’ve been thinking about boyfriend diet I got my cherry chapstick, let’s go try it

Brooklyn 03:29
Took my time, I got nothing to loose Left if all I got something to prove This city can’t sleep and nor will I I’m like a rolling stone, won’t be satisfied. I’m 24 hours from the pain we knew Still all I wanna do is, all I wanna do is you You were, you were the only thing You were, you were the only thing I knew, about how to loose So bring my heart back, back in tact I won’t be your artifact I’m free now I see Brooklyn Lights in front of me. It was a hard slap from the back knowing you were faking it. So hard, let it go, take it slow and loose control And all I wanna do is, all I wanna do is you You were, you were the only thing You were, you were the only thing I knew, about how to loose And dirty streets all write your name On chalky walks, in summer rain And all I wanna do is, all I wanna do is you You were, you were the only thing You were, you were the only thing I knew, about how to loose

Do you wanna get drunk? Do you wanna get drunk? Do you wanna get drunk and fool around? Do you wanna get high? Do you wanna get high? Do you wanna get high? High? Do you wanna get high? Do you wanna get high? Do you wanna get high and watch me blow my own mind? I’m sorry, I know it’s rude I’m sorry, I know it’s crude I’m supposed to just wait for it, Let it roll, let it unfold And take its time, and wait for signs and be too proud Fuck all that, I want it now. Let’s go get drunk and fool around Let’s borrow courage from the dutch And medicate a little touch Do you wanna get drunk? And fool around? Do you wanna get high and let me take you downtown? I don’t know, what it is about people like you You make me drink too fast, and talk shit like it’s true I’m supposed to just obey all the rules, be too cool, not give it too soon And take its time, and wait for signs and be too proud Fuck all that, I want it now. Let’s go get drunk and fool around

Got a Light? 04:25
It’s the kind of situation I wish I smoked ciggarettes And it’s the kind of situation I wish I didn’t feel regret Caus’ I would bowl right up to you, ask you for a light? Then I would look you up and down and say “how’s your night?” Instead I stare. Messing with my hair And I won’t dare Pretending I don’t care Take up the book, the pen, the sword, the rhyme Or take up love, but do it on your own time I’m crap at small talk I’m not a smoker, you glance up I feel mediocre And why? Do they say that casuals easy? Stuck in my head, my body seizing. Why? Do they say that casuals easy? As far as I can tell, nothing here is gonna free me. And it’s fine, fine, fine I can take it in my stride stride stride And I can try, try try To feed another line So I bowl right up to you ask you for the time? I’d say my cell phone died and all my mates went outside. Instead I stare. Messing with my hair And I don’t dare My hands just fidget, picking my nails. I breathe in but…there’s no exhale And why? Do they say that casuals easy? Stuck in my head, my body seizing. Why? Do they say that casuals easy? As far as I can tell, nothing here is gonna free me.

I can see when I’m through the door, we’re not in Kansas anymore And from the look of this scared floor, this place has seen it’s own war Glory be, my oh me, I’ve got a fascination Glory be, my oh me, I’ve never done this type of thing You’re a slice of heaven and I want it all You’re like cherry pie and I’m hungry for If this is a sign, then it’s a sign Keep it in time, your body and mine If this is a sign, then it’s a sign Because I am analog, you are digital I go slow and steady, you’re fast and physical You’re analog, I am digital You’re magnetic and I won’t lose control. Glory be, my oh me, we got a situation Glory be, my oh me, I didn’t think you were my type But I have wanted, I’ve wanted all my life To be dancing in the neon light. Because I am analog, you are digital I go slow and steady, you’re fast and physical You’re analog, I am digital You’re magnetic and I won’t lose control. I know I’m analog, I know you’re digital But boy I wanna love that is not typical I know I’m analog, I know you’re digital But baby on the floor, let’s get physical! We will be synthesized tonight Under a bright neon light Come make it right Just for tonight My digital delight.

Running Bare 03:36
Come on beyond the sea, beyond the sky Across the green, across the blue and white, the great divide I’ll take your hand, I’ll take your coat, I’ll take you home, I’ll take you there. We’ll leave the pace, we’ll leave the dark, we’ll leave the grey and all our cares I’m walking golden shores tonight I’ll fly on pale blue moonlight I’m running bare I’ll take you there Out there beyond the noise, beyond the known Across the deep, across the darkest oceans, wildest moans I’ll take your hand, I’ll take your coat, I’ll take you home, I’ll take you there. Between the memory and the moment in the salty air. I’m walking golden shores tonight I’ll fly on pale blue moonlight I’m running bare I’ll take you there And if anyone, can hold you like this can Make you feel, like I do, in this land I won’t fear You running bare

Dear Sir, Be patient with all that is unresolved in your heart, and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms, and books that are written in a very foreign tongue.

Heartbeat 03:41
Heart beats like a drum I know you're not the one Cause i don't believe in Ones But this night has been fun I don't yet feel tired And this night has been wild You’re here I'm near I just wonder if you’ll stay Tell me you'll stay Just for the day check your phone i check you out your every move fills me with doubt

Freight Train to the back of my head One look at you and I’m sinking like lead Baby Baby Freight Train to the back of my head One look at you and I’m sinking like lead Save me I’m crazy for you So take me on Don’t leave me out Take me home Don’t leave without me I’ve been at your station waiting Crossing lights, my body shaking Waiting for the sign You’re like a freight train running through my life You’re like a freight train running through my life You’re a hard cold slap in the face But when you run I give chase Baby Baby You’re a hard cold slap in the face But when you run I give chase I’m crazy Crazy for you You make me feel like I don’t have no pride Make me feel I can’t be satisfied I look in your direction and I see a light But you aint no saviour you’re a freight train come to derail my life

about

Unresolved Heart is our first album together and we're really excited to share it with you. The name and title track come from 'Letters to a Young Poet', written by Rainer Maria Rilke - a poet and writer from the 1900's whom Jezabel discovered during a particularly confusing and meloncholy time. The album is largely about those experiences: about the vacillations between clarity and confusion, love and lusting, one nighters and all lifers.
