This is the third demo from Sun Mask! Our fastest and loudest track yet. Hope you enjoy it!

Lyrics:
The sunsets and smokestacks.
The train cars on the tracks.
All the streetlights in the city
Could not replace what I lack.

In the city x4

All the marble and the concrete
From the harbor to the main street.
All the lights only blind me.
All the shadows I could not foresee.

In the city x4

You and I could’ve lived together,
We could have lived forever,
But I left you for the city
To chase I dream I can’t remember.
x2

In the city x4

The City [Demo]

This is our first demo, which we recorded in order to show you what we sound like before we enter the studio. We are very proud of this song, and we hope you enjoy it! All support is greatly appreciated.

Lyrics:
Standing in the shimmering heat
Just like the day I met you at the beach
You were like a mirage, just floating in place.
The sun lit up the darkest corners of your face.
I smiled and laughed at everything you said,
But deep inside I was filled with dread.
Now I twist and turn in the spider’s web
That fills the space between my heart and my head.

Shiver in the pouring rain
As thoughts of you ran throughout my brain
The darkening clouds filled the summer sky,
And the rain came down like these tears I cried.
I twisted and turned at the end of your line.
I was really yours when I thought you were mine.
Woe to the fool who disregards the warning.
My sunshine love has turned into bitter mourning.

Standing in the shimmering heat
Just like the day I met you at the beach
You are like a mirage, just floating in place.
The sun lights up the darkest corners of your face.
But now I know who you really are.
You’re a blackhole as fiery as a star.
It might be hard, but I am turning away,
Avoiding the light that captivates my gaze.

Shimmering Heat [Demo]

The second demo from Sun Mask! This song has a bit of a faster tempo and features clearer vocals and a fuzz pedal in the chorus. Hope you enjoy it!

Lyrics:
Being baptized again.
Those are the words that are running through my head.
It's a new dimension
Without fear or apprehension.

Floating in bliss.
There’s no feeling that is quite like this.
A sweet caress
As I sink into the warm abyss.

Cast me...into the sea (x4).
