Now we are fighting with ourselves How the West Was Won Are you going back for someone else? I heard her talk about success But I cannot sleep I cannot rest So I will sit and dream about the West How the west was won How the west was won There are kids that stay out late They can't escape, what is their fate? They try to take blood from a stone Re-direct their lives past orange cones My parents are freezing right down to their bones How the west was won How the west was won Now we are talking to ourselves

You're Breaking Up With You You're breaking up with you You're breaking everything you started You're breaking up with you You're breaking everything that I wanted You're breaking up with you You're breaking everything that you started You're breaking up with you You're breaking up, you're breaking up, you're breaking up Breaking up, making up Letting it waste away It's getting dim, so hard to see Take it time, all of me You're breaking up with you You're breaking everything you started You're breaking up with you You're breaking everything that I wanted You're breaking up with you You're breaking everything that you started You're breaking up with you You're breaking up, you're breaking up, you're breaking up

I'm Buying a Stratocaster I'll take it out on you, I'll take it out on tour I'll make a million fans, I'll be the new rock star du jour Because sunburst just isn't enough to get me high No sunburst just isn't enough to get me off 'Cause my rock star credibility Won't let me hang out at the bar And my rock star credibility Won't let me hang out, I stumble and I scar I'll take it out on you, I'll take it out on me I never thought I'd see the bitter end But sunburst just isn't enough to get me off 'Cause my rock star credibility Won't let me hang out at the bar And my rock star credibility Won't let me hang out, I stumble and I scar

Take This Town and Kill It Take this town and kill it Let me up man, I've had more than enough I've been the bad guy, I've been the villain I've been the tough Take this town and kill it She left out with all that I own Tried to fake it and I tried to rip it Stepped down, lost my commitment Take this town and kill it Take this town Take this town Take this town

about

"The Heavy Editors make pure post-punk power pop, exquisitely-crafted and impeccably-played...a type of genuine music that we don't get to hear very often today. This is not manufactured hit-factory pap, but real rock and roll, with intelligent lyrics and sharp arrangements, played by musicians with real chops.

"The five songs on this EP address relationships, our changing times, the dreams of a musician and impending maturity. The tempos vary from near-ballads to solid rockers, with hints of psychedelia and punk around the edges."

--Rudy Panucci, Radio Free Charleston
