lyrics
Floating on like rotten wood
The minutes have been burned to my wrist
A strange voice calls out to me
And I know who it is
Turn over the hourglass
My final plea
There are more marks to be made
Before I fall to sleep
If it's fear you want, well I have shown it
Floating on, space and time
Through it all, through it all
Threw it all away for nothing
Floating on like rotten wood
The minutes have been burned to my wrist
A strange voice calls out to me
And I know who it is
If it's fear you want, well I have shown it
Floating on, space and time
Through it all, through it all
Threw it all away for nothing
Eyes are shut, but mind wide open
Hold on tight to one last token
For the nights when we were young
Writing on a dead man's palm
The minutes have been burned to my wrist
A strange voice calls out to me
And I know who it is
Turn over the hourglass
My final plea
There are more marks to be made
Before I fall to sleep
If it's fear you want, well I have shown it
Floating on, space and time
Through it all, through it all
Threw it all away for nothing
Floating on like rotten wood
The minutes have been burned to my wrist
A strange voice calls out to me
And I know who it is
If it's fear you want, well I have shown it
Floating on, space and time
Through it all, through it all
Threw it all away for nothing
Eyes are shut, but mind wide open
Hold on tight to one last token
For the nights when we were young
Writing on a dead man's palm

about
Wilkes Oswald Miami, Florida
4 dudes in Miami formed a band in 2009 called Wilkes Oswald. Influenced individually and collectively by acts such as The
Beatles, Pink Floyd, Tame Impala, Muse, Daft Punk, and Kanye West.
No two live shows by Wilkes Oswald have ever been the same; they get off on the art of spontaneous, improvised sequences in their live shows; sometimes completely improvising a new song on the spot.
