    "Beauty In the Breakdown" is a collection of stories, impeccably set to song, chronicling the singer-songwriter's journey of the many human layers of a relationship from passion, love and the broken end.

    Once upon a time, Jean met "L" on a hot, steamy night. Their connection was only slightly more instant than the sex, and the romance was a whirlwind of passion, ghosts and broken mirrors.

    Four years, many tears and masquerades of deceit later, Jean rises out of her own heartbreak to tell her honest story of a love that should never have been, a person that never was, and how it brought her to her own defining moment of "Beauty in the Breakdown".

    THE MUSIC

    With a thunderous voice, poetically explosive lyrics and a sizzling, virtuoso band, "Beauty in the Breakdown" is set on fire with an incendiary blend of modern, danceable Pop-Funk with rocked-out Urban flare.

    Genre-defiant influences of Prince & the Revolution's "Purple Rain", with heartfelt dysfunction of Fleetwood Mac's "Rumors", sealed with the cool-factor of Justin Timbelake's "FutureSexLoveSound" Jean Morisson has sophistically married different styles that melt together, brilliantly.

    Special guests include Nile Rodgers (Madonna, David Bowie, Duran Duran), Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Raymond Angry (The Roots, Joss Stone, D'Angelo) and more.

lyrics

3:25am, I wipe my sweat away
Awake to try to find myself, again
Can't eat, can't sleep, can't dream
This bitterness inside of me has got a hold on three
I drowning in the sea

Do you know what it's like to love you?
Had to break my heart and watch you walk away
Do you know what it's like to watch you live a lie?
When I know there's nothing I can do to make you see the light

You're walking dangerously close to the edge
I cry all night don't know where you've been
And so I want to choose my words closely then
Cause something ain't right
Please tell me why

I keep on falling
I keep on coming back to you
Is this forever?
Can we forget what we've been through?

'Cuz I keep on falling
I keep on coming back to you
Is this forever?
I'll never forget what you put me through
Falling for you

3:25, I wipe my sweat away
Awake cause I can't hide this pain, again
Can't eat, can't sleep, can't be
I'm falling deeper, can't you see you've got a hold on me?
Your love is killing me

Do you know what it's like to love you?
I'm bleeding love inside
I'm dying every day
Do you know what it's like to want you in my life?
When I know there's nothing I can do to make you see the light

You're walking dangerously close to the edge
I cry all night, don't know where you've been
And so I want to choose my words closely then
Cause something ain't right... please tell me why...

Tell me are you happy now?
That you fooled the world somehow to think
Everything that you had done to me
Was everything that I had done to you
You painted me like I'm a fool
Like a Rockstar just being so damn cool
Only sent you flowers to apologize
There's so many lies
Are you fucking kidding me?

Treated you like you were queen of the scene
Behind my back, sneak attack, you're so damn mean
Still I wanted to give you
The things that I told you
Now I forgive you

Now I forgive you
Please tell me
Tell me why

I keep on falling
I keep on coming back to you
Is this forever?
Can we forget what we've been through?

'Cuz I keep on falling
I keep on coming back to you
Is this forever?
I'll never forget what you put me through

Falling for you...
Falling for you...
