Verse 1 Paper boat floating in the gutter stream, Storm-drain shadows where the red eyes gleam. Childhood laughter turns to fear, When the circus comes, the clown is here. Verse 2 Summer days in Derry, we swore that vow, To fight the darkness then and now. But the years roll on and the fear still grows, Some things return, everybody knows. Chorus Down here with Pennywise, Fear wears a painted disguise. Down here with Pennywise, Childhood dies when the shadow flies. Verse 3 Friends together, the losers’ band, Holding tight with a trembling hand. Face the sewer, face the dread, Stand together or end up dead. Bridge Voices echo in the dark below, The monster feeds on the fear we show. But when we’re united, it can’t survive, The strength of the heart keeps us alive. Chorus (repeat, bigger) Down here with Pennywise, Fear wears a painted disguise. Down here with Pennywise, Stand as one and the terror dies. Outro (childlike piano motif into heavy guitar crash).
