We All Float Down Here

LYRICS: [INTRO] I taste your fear in the gutter rain Red grin floating, no fuckin name Paper boat, streetlight glow Follow me down where the dead kids go [VERSE 1] Seven little shadows in a small-town bruise Each one got a scar and a switchblade fuse Bullies talk big, but they shake when it’s dark I don’t hunt bodies, I hunt that spark Georgie reachin, hand out, eyes wide I’m the thing that lives where your courage died Teeth like tombstones, breath like rot Promise you heaven then give you nothin but knots I split your friend group, whisper “they ain’t real” Turn love into paranoia, make the brave ones kneel I’m the storm drain preacher, plastic face saint Painted-on joy with a permanent taint [HOOK] We all float, float, float down here Laugh till your heartbeat disappears Wicked clown, sick crown, chaos in the air Pop goes your hope, now you’re mine to tear We all float, float, float down here Red light blink, and the street gets weird Take that hand, take that dare One step closer, I’m everywhere [VERSE 2] I wear your trauma like a tailored suit Your worst damn memory is my parachute Basement prayers and bathroom mirrors Every “I’m fine” tastes like tears and terror Beverly bleedin through the bathroom sink I’m the voice that makes you stop and think Richie jokin, tryin to hide the dread I crack his grin, put a worm in his head Eddie wheezin, medicine lies I turn the inhaler into alibis Bill stutterin, guilt in his throat I hook that shame like a fuckin rope I don’t die easy, I don’t die clean I sleep in cycles, in-between, unseen Every 27, I rise again Same hunger, new faces, same sin [BRIDGE] You wanna be brave? Cute. You wanna be heroes? Adorable. I’m the appetite under your hometown. I’m the smile in your nightmare. I’m the goddamn punchline. Say my name? You can’t. You only feel me. [VERSE 3] Losers Club, circle up, hands in blood We ain’t friends, we’re a flood in the mud Silver burn, iron bite, ritual heat I still crawl back under every heartbeat You stab the clown, but the town stays sick Because I ain’t just teeth, I’m the whole damn trick Derry’s a stomach, I’m the bile I make good people rot with a friendly smile I’m spider-legs in the back of your skull I’m the empty when you try to be full I’m the “almost safe” that turns into screams I’m the fuckin landlord of your dreams [HOOK] We all float, float, float down here Laugh till your heartbeat disappears Wicked clown, sick crown, chaos in the air Pop goes your hope, now you’re mine to tear We all float, float, float down here Red grin flash, now the end is near Take that hand, take that dare One step closer, I’m everywhere [OUTRO] You grow up, you move on, you swear you forgot But I live in the cracks of the things you’re not Streetlights hum, storm drains breathe I’m the lullaby underneath So sleep, little hero, sleep, little friend The joke don’t stop, it just bends
