WARNING: This is an Amorphic Band! This music jumps from musical genre to musical genre, so each song takes on its own shape and form while leaving Twist Boat, itself, shapeless and formless.
Dom and Matt began forging their Amorphic Genre-Jumping musical endeavour in 2018 upon an introduction by fellow musician and friend, Jason Lynch. Of the two composers that are Twist Boat, Dom plays the guitars, banjos and bass guitars, and Matt plays the keyboard and sings the vocals.

Roads-Demo to be Re-Recorded
Roads-Demo to be Re-RecordedCopyright 2019 Dom DiNardo Matthew Alan Rowe and Jason Lynch (Lyrical Contribution) This is just a demo that we are currently re-recording. Lyrics: Well, I’ve figured out where I’m going now. Won’t you come, too? I need a better life. This one isn’t right. I’m going to start anew. Time digs with a sharper knife. Just when I think I’ve got it right, I’ve gotta start anew. We’re going To the west. Time will never be this young again. Let’s make the best of this time, my friend. Let’s make the best of this time until the end. Follow me out west. It’s time we were moving on. Put the past behind. It’s time we started living again. Start to live again! Well, I’ve figured out what this life’s about. It’s about me and you. We must carry on the fight. And someday we’ll get it right, Just me and you. And so, I’m holding you real tight, Driving us through the night Towards something new. We’re going To the west. Time will never be this young again. Let’s make the best of this time, my friend. Let’s make the best of this time until the end. Follow me out west. It’s time we were moving on. Put the past behind. It’s time we started living again.

Canary In A Coal Mine
Canary In A Coal MineCopyright 2019 Dominic DiNardo and Matthew Alan Rowe Lyrics: Give me something to show that you know that everything will be all right, And not just tonight! Give me something to LIVE by!!! Give me something to show that you know about the mysteries of life -- Why we live and die, And why we try to survive!!! Bridge & Chorus: Well, I guess that's just the feeling when you live in the unknown. Like maybe there's something better that you will never know. And how do you find the meaning that others seem to know??? Keep on hoping -- Keep on looking for it! 'Cause maybe there's something out there TO discover!!! And maybe that something's simply that we FIND each other!!! Cause maybe that something's simply....x3 Oooahoohoo! There is so much to know that I know that it keeps me up at night. Keeps me wound real tight! Keeps me wondering "Why?" 'Cause there is so much we see that we see that we never see quite right. So, why do we try? Why keep wondering "Why?" Repeat Bridge & Chorus

Nequitia
NequitiaCopyright 2019 Dominic DiNardo and Matthew Alan Rowe Lyrics: Can you see your past passing by you again??? Now, you have to fast forward just to rewind!!! Can you believe you gotta start it all over again??? Seems your best foot forward drags the other behind!!! Going with the grain of things -- I've got no brain, you see. No. Thought I was made for greater things, But by the looks of things, No. So, don’t you believe! They’ll feed you nothing but their lies again!!! They’ll just keep tryin’ to rob you of your senses and your will to try!!! So, don’t you flee! Don’t let them steam roll you again!!! The truth of what they do will destroy them! The truth will stand the test of time!!! Going 'gainst the grain of things -- I’ve got a brain, you see!!! Oh! And now I’m doing greater things! You’re through oppressin’ me!!! Oh! I guess you’re livin’ your lie like no one can get to you -- No one can hurt you! No one can touch you! But you better get wise to the truth I’m ‘bout to pour upon you -- You are what you do! You can’t escape you! No matter what you deny, posterity will see right through you -- Nowhere to run to! No more escape route!!!

The Narrow Gate
The Narrow GateCopyright 2019 Dominic DiNardo and Matthew Alan Rowe What the son is taught: “Life's an arena where one's soul is tested. Must keep a daily audit of one's soul's state of grace. If Heaven's near at hand, Hell's even handier! Must give a daily prayer for all at stake.” Son: And I said “Oh, yeah!” Parent: “Keep your guard up, son! Never trust no one!” Son: And I said “Oh, yeah!” Parent: “Keep your mouth shut, son! You ain't The Chosen One!” What the son is taught: “Life's a procedure where one's skills are tested. Must keep a daily schedule of all the things to take place. If destitution's at hand, a gun's even handier! Must play the cards we're dealt and do what it takes.” Son: “Oh, I had a vision!!! Now, I'm a man on a mission!!!” What the son is taught: “Life's a battlefield where all wills are tested. Must keep control of all the pieces that come into play. If a threat's at hand, an attack's even handier! Must maintain control and keep all the others in place.” Son: And I said “Oh, yeah!” Parent: “Keep your guard up, son! Never trust no one!” Son: And I said “Oh, yeah!” Parent: “Keep your mouth shut, son! You ain't The Chosen One!” What the son finally realizes: “Life's an enigma where all fools are bested. Must take a foolish mind to think it's made sense of this place. If the truth’s readily at hand, a fool's even handier! (We) must find the proof, ourselves, or prove it's a fake.” Son: “Oh, Revelation!!! Oh, is obfuscation!!!”

Little Room For Hate -- Demo to be Re-Recorded
Little Room For Hate -- Demo to be Re-RecordedCopyright 2019 Dominic DiNardo and Matthew Alan Rowe Lyrics: Why don’tcha take a good look at the world outside on a bright and sunny day -- At the people in the street who don’t stop to greet, even though they’re getting in your way? I said a “Hoo, honey! Why are you fearin’ for yourself?” I said a “Hoo, honey! You best take a look at yourself!” Why don’tcha take a good look at yourself outside on a bright and sunny day -- At the people in the street you don’t stop to greet, even though you’re getting in their way? I said a “Hoo, honey! Why are you fearin’ for yourself?” I said a “Hoo, honey! You best take a look at yourself!” What’s it gonna take, to make you feel safe? This little room of hate can never make you safe!!! (Every time you turn a corner you can’t help but fearing the worst!) Backing vocal part Why don’tcha take a good look at yourself outside on a bright and sunny day -- At the people in the street you don’t stop to greet, even though you’re getting in their way? I said a “Hoo, honey! Why are you fearin’ for yourself?” I said a “Hoo, honey! You best take a look at yourself!” You’re the reason! You!!! You’re the reason! You!!! So, time ticks on for you ‘cause life goes on for you.

Colorful Child
Colorful ChildCopyright 2019 Dominic DiNardo and Matthew Alan Rowe You can say that "We're okay." And you can pray that it's true, what ya say. Brick us up inside your walls, But when the building falls, What will you do then? How many times will you put yourself through this??? Secrets safe from everyone, But when we're all said and done, What will you do then? How many times will you put yourself through this??? And you know it's always on your mind, that something you don't want to say. And it's better left unsaid 'Cause I already know I can't stay!!!!!! Now, push on towards happier days!
