“Pray For Me” By: Heavy AmericA Lyrics: Michael Thomas Seguin © 2016 / ASCAP Raise my head to a new day Feel of gray is washed away when the sun comes in With a welcome smile she gives to me A feel of empty trust that I’ll succeed to be a better me Look inside and find yourself as divine Only need to have your own body and mind To confuse, to use, abuse as you choose The tragic school of life and all it’s cruel rules Pray for me, a better me Pray for me, a better me No more is there self destruction No more do I feel a bitter sting The dust is wiped from my eyes And I see everything Pray for me, a better me Pray for me a better me

“Bleed Mary” By: Heavy AmericA Lyrics: Michael T. Seguin © 2017 / ASCAP Flick of an apple seed Curiosity now a tree Breathe deep and think heavy Ass deep in elbow grease Oh my Needle punches Fate seized and ruby lips Catch me I’m falling Film it all and add it to the pit Oh my Bleed Mary Cut deep Mary Windswept smile Lo-fi and dirty knees Floss cleaned minds Try to figure what’s best for me Oh my White tea and honey Razor blades for Christmas gifts Try to keep them happy Cut and run if they lose their shit Oh my Bleed Mary Cut deep Mary You pulled it off Made them run without the sound of a gun It all went wrong Turn it off while the little boy’s aiming a gun Turn it off cause’ the truth hurts and you want none Turn it off while the little boy’s aiming a gun Turn it off while the little boy... Bleed Mary Cut deep Mary Bleed Mary, Bleed Mary

“Proud Shame” By: Heavy AmericA Lyrics: Michael Thomas Seguin © 2017 / ASCAP Toro Toro red means go Roughed up and bled out slow I’m cut clean at the seam, sprayed clean In control except for the strings Loud secrets and silent screams The mule plays insane, hopes they go away Proud shame Ashes, ashes burned away Setting sun fans the flames of proud shame Run with scissors, punctured lung Faded lumens, a neutered tongue Terrorized, no hope for change 360 nothing gained, proud shame Ashes, ashes burned away Pondents perched on lofty chains Sabotage their righteous claims Setting sun reclaims the flames of proud shame Sow a field of tears and watch them grow Pray for fruit and eat the root below Ashes, ashes burned and blown away Setting sun rules the flames of proud shame

“Sweet Kisses” By: Heavy AmericA Lyrics: Michael Thomas Seguin © 2017 / ASCAP Half my life’s held together with duct tape and glue Other half’s held together by you Please don’t leave me now I can’t live with half of me There’s no honor without some disgrace What keeps leading me back here Has yet to show it’s rotten face I will answer when they gloat and stare Help christen the wrecking ball It reads handle with care Please don’t leave me now I can’t live with half of me Please don’t leave me now, not now Pour me out like water My bones all out of place Maybe one more cigarette Then I’ll go and join the race Skin’s soft like leather Stress helps keep it clean Maybe I can be your scene I know you wanna, do you wanna with me We’ll avoid the lawyers and throw out the sheets Tighten up your corset and pull back your hair Sweet kisses and long goodbyes While you’re tied to a chair Please don’t leave me now I can’t live with half of me Gimme back my half of me I hate that half of me It’s all come loose

“Heavy Eyes” By: Heavy AmericA Lyrics: Michael Thomas Seguin © 2017 / ASCAP Dance around the stars like butterflies Dropping flower petals from way up high Tell whoever you meet up there send me a dream Make it a sunny day under a willow tree And I’ll wait Don’t forget to wish a dream for yourself Save wish number three To get you back to me And I’ll wait As you dance around the stars, I’ll wait I’ll watch and cheer you on, I’ll wait, I’ll wait Daybreak comes and you start your fall Tell the moon and the stars you won’t be long at all Keep some petals in your pocket (to) Remember your last waltz And I’ll wait As you dance around the stars, I’ll wait I’ll watch and cheer you on, I’ll wait Cheer you on till your song is gone Cheer you on till your pride is strong Shooting star now the dream is gone But I’ll wait As you dance around the stars, I’ll wait I’ll watch and cheer you on, I’ll wait Till your heavy eyes bring butterflies, I’ll wait I’ll watch and cheer you on, I’ll wait I’ll wait

“Casting Stones” By: Heavy AmericA Lyrics: Michael Thomas Seguin © 2017 / ASCAP It’s not safe to hang around here The walls have eyes, ceiling ears Waiting for the veil to drop Exposing all your fear Body’s racked, cramped inside A fragile shell, no longer can you hide Casting stones fall from grace Sour promises, bitter taste How many stones will it take Building up your wall of hate Expect anything expect too much Mirror’s fogged, head’s all filled with lust Just want it gone from under my skin Wash it all away, make it shiny and new Everything is easier without you Body’s racked, cramped inside A fragile shell, no longer can you hide Casting stones fall from grace Sour promises, bitter taste How many stones will it take Building up your wall of hate We wander aimlessly Down our paths in search of gold Just one careless step, the pillars start to fold You better run, you can’t win You’re too old Turning into hallowed trees, stealing souls Don’t you know Catered to your weakness Turned your ego gold Didn’t ask you where you’ve been Don’t care who you know Body’s racked, cramped inside A fragile shell, no longer can you hide Casting stones fall from grace Sour promises, bitter taste How many stones will it take Building up your wall of hate

“Goliath” By: Heavy AmericA Lyrics: Michael Thomas Seguin © 2017 / ASCAP Hey Mr. Reality Man Keep pulling at my feet Hey Mr. Reality Man Won’t let me live discrete He waits until I’m stumbling Then he trips my feet Hiding all those things I want He likes that hide and seek Hey, he’s knocking, outside your mind’s door Sweet Sister Mercy Give me bread so I can eat My sister gives me wine Life’s blood for me to drink You see the balance clearly Give and take of life Go wait in line for your sympathy When the Devil’s out of sight Hey, he’s knocking, outside your mind’s door Sweet Sister Mercy Thank you for the bread to eat Tell Mr. Reality Man go on Keep pulling at my feet

“I Can Take It” By: Heavy AmericA Lyrics: Michael Thomas Seguin © 2017 / ASCAP Plateaus of happiness, now cliffs of terror How will I deal with this And will it be here tomorrow, tomorrow Blame it on me, I can take it Stand on my spine till’ you break it Spit in my face, tell me you love me, love me Bury me, bury me, I can take it Most painful words, I’ve ever heard The ice in your veins turns blue, blue Bury me, bury me, I can take it Go on beat me down, show me what’s right What I don’t get today I’ll learn thru a spike Your mouths an open grave that swallows my soul I’m asking what came first, the pistol or the hole Bury me, bury me, I can take it Rollin’ in at dawn you’re ready for a fight No matter what I say, won’t change your mind Friends they’re all asking what’s wrong with your man I just crack a smile, catch me if you can Catch me if you can, yeah I’m that man An empty man

about

"Heavy AmericA manages to defy the conveniences of category, presenting an arsenal of sounds and moods while unlocking a natural ability to employ a fiery insurgency across the seemingly endless styles the band works within. The performances of Mike, Dan and Budd are inspired and sincere, there’s a real timeless quality to the music here. They take all of the proper elements of good hard rock and slap you in the face with them. That’s good; I can get behind that.” -Jamsphere Magazine
