lyrics

I will not sleep through my own deliverance
I will not sleep through my own deliverance
and if I should die may it only be to ignorance
cuz I will not sleep through my own deliverance

if I should pass out may I wake up to my negligence
cuz i will not sleep through my own deliverance

When I was born I was pure-bred for foolishness
When I was young I was spoon-fed sheer fearfulness
and now that I'm grown I must stand up on my own
and i will not sleep through my own deliverance.

said when I could see, I could see only innocence
when I could feel, I could feel through to tenderness
and now that i'm blind, I screw it up all the time
but I will not sleep through my own deliverance

From the soul of the South comes The Shiz. Indie Rock meets the Louisiana roux of Liz Hogan and Lilli Lewis, two front women who feel more like conjurers than beauty queens. The Shiz is hellbent on putting meaning back in the mainstream, and they do so with a compelling transparency and with hearts thumping hard in their chests - Unexpectedly stirring, and a damned good time. ... more
