Domino (demo version)

You need a domino to get out of a rut
Pullin' teeth can be so tough
But I think you'll feel better
Now here comes a know-it-all
Another fly stuck in a glass
The other side he cannot have
So he never considers it
You keep diggin' in your diamond heels
Instead of chipping at the crack
But there's a jack knife silhouette
At the edge of your vision
Doesn't it feel so nice
To not think about a thing
To float softly through a dream
Take it all if you want
Put it in your beautiful backyard
But like the flash before the heat
Here comes the domino
Here comes the domino
You have way too much
And it's spilling off your plate
A meal you did not help make
But you take all the credit
Now there's a thick white haze
A panic driven doom
But there's a black box in the room
No one bothers to open
Go on, why don't you open it
And see what's on the inside
'Cause in the end it's just too nice
To not think about a thing
To float softly through a dream

The Face (demo version)
05:14

Dodging the gaze of the palisades
Way beyond the bottom line
Brushing it off, keep it easy
To make believe this is a gentle tide
They've been jacking up the price of sand
Right before the rise
Smiling as we sink into the slime
But they will take the backdoor just in time
Betting on a rouge wave to arrive
Still, something else is watching from the edges just outside
The Face is growing
Let it grow
Hesitate away the chance
See the window coming down like a lid
They drape a heavy cloth around the cage
To tame the misbehaving swift
Into a fear-laced, wide-eyed lifter of the hands
Another dazzled by the grifters in command
But doubled-down, the blood begins to rise
The chin, the cheek, the tongue, the teeth, the eyes
Filling up the room, it multiplies
And the Face is growing
The Face is growing
