lyrics
I know you were here
I know you were there
All smiles came back to me
All times came rushing home alone with my fears
And you've got this look in your eyes
Familiar ties severed clean for years
Came home battered and tired
Sit by the phone
Stripped to the bone
Lonely and cold
I found a photo of us
And I bought a frame to hang it up
Together we laughed and we tried
To make it all better the short life we had
I'd wait but you never came
Soon though its time to grow old
Came home last night alone
Wait by the phone
Stripped to the bone
Lonely and cold
I know you're not here
And I know what's good for me
And I know you never came
Lay there on the ground
Sulking for something that just isn't near
You've got the sun in your eyes
And I've got my pride to be had
Your door looks clean from here
My door is closed as you go
I've got some things to say
Out of my mind too late to hear me cry
And I've got nobody to hear
No lines
No room for me
I know you were there
All smiles came back to me
All times came rushing home alone with my fears
And you've got this look in your eyes
Familiar ties severed clean for years
Came home battered and tired
Sit by the phone
Stripped to the bone
Lonely and cold
I found a photo of us
And I bought a frame to hang it up
Together we laughed and we tried
To make it all better the short life we had
I'd wait but you never came
Soon though its time to grow old
Came home last night alone
Wait by the phone
Stripped to the bone
Lonely and cold
I know you're not here
And I know what's good for me
And I know you never came
Lay there on the ground
Sulking for something that just isn't near
You've got the sun in your eyes
And I've got my pride to be had
Your door looks clean from here
My door is closed as you go
I've got some things to say
Out of my mind too late to hear me cry
And I've got nobody to hear
No lines
No room for me

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.
