Kelli Schaefer is a songwriter from Portland, OR who I am a big fan of. Her music demonstrates a wisdom and maturity that is rare and much needed in music today. This song is from her first 4-song EP. Hear more of her work here: notfree.kellischaefer.com/releases

lyrics

I don't have eyes in the back of my head
I don't have ears in the sides of it either
but I have a mouth that carries a debt so big
that when compared with the weight of the ocean
I win.

And I'm not trying to wake a sleeping giant
or move a mountain...
start a revolution
And as sick as they seem,
my elementary dreams are weak and feeble
I'm simply trying to use my hands.
my hands
my hands
my hands
Oh you lofty hearts
get on your knees and fold your hands
bow your heads to the floor, my friends
and pound, pound, pound 'til the ringing ends...
until the ringing ends...
until the ringing ends...
until the ringing ends...
until the ringing ends...
