Derry Maine Remix

V6-MINI

[Intro] (A creepy, distorted carnival tune plays softly. A gritty, deep UK accent cuts through the static.) "Yeah. Look. You think the sewers are just for the rain, blud? Nah. Down here, everyone floats. And once you take that balloon, there’s no coming back. Let’s get it." (Heavy drill drum pattern drops hard with the sound of water dripping in a dark tunnel) [Verse 1: The Cosmic Past & The Cycle] Long before the town of Derry, long before the streets, I crashed from the cosmos, hungry for the meat. An ancient entity, spinning in the dark abyss, The Deadlights gleaming with a lethal, cosmic kiss. I wear a clown suit, flashing with a painted grin, To mask the ancient horror crawling deep within. Every twenty-seven years, I break the hibernation, Waking up hungry, claiming all the generation. Feed on the chaos, watch the panic start to breed, Injected in the water lines, a century of greed. They try to build a life above, pretending they are safe, While I'm shifting down below, carving out a space. [Chorus] (The beat strips back slightly, heavy bass with an eerie child-like chant in a haunting UK cadence) Down in the dark where the sewer water flows, Got a red balloon, everybody knows! Step into the shadows, look into my eye, Take a little float, watch the children fly! It's Pennywise dancing, grinning in the street, Tasting all your fear when you admit defeat! [Verse 2: Victim Selection & The Fear Factor] Now how do I select 'em? It’s a science to the game, I target the isolated kids who carry weight and shame. The lonely, the broken, the ones who feel the grief, I sniff out the trauma, I offer no relief. I morph into your nightmares, whatever hurts you most, A mummy, or a werewolf, or a childhood ghost. Because fear is the seasoning, it makes the meat taste sweet, The more you sweat and shiver, the better is the treat. Georgie down the storm drain, reaching for a toy, That's how the cycle starts, a gullible young boy. You can band together, try to face me with your crew, But deep down inside—you know you'll float too. [Outro] (The heavy 808 bass cuts out completely, leaving only the sound of rain falling on a storm drain and a chilling, echoing laugh fading away.) "Pop goes the balloon, mate... You'll float too."
