[Pre-Intro]
[Intro]
[whisper]
Welcome…
Welcome home…
You never left…
[Verse]
Brick by brick, the town remembers
Every scream soaked into stone
Smiling faces, hollow weather
Feeding something far below
I don’t run — I circulate
Through bloodlines, through belief
I wear your myths, I wear your hate
I sharpen children into teeth
[Ritual Pre-Chorus]
Not a clown
Not a god
I am what your fear evolves into
[Chorus]
WELCOME
— TO —
DERRY
WHERE
TIME
SUFFOCATES
WELCOME
— TO —
DERRY
HOPE
ROTATES
[chords ring into feedback]
[Verse]
Twenty-seven carved in bone
You grow old just to be owned
You forget — I don’t decay
I live between your yesterdays
Balloons rise like warning signs
Marking where innocence died
You look up — I’m already inside
The space where your gods won’t reply
[Deathcore Drop sudden, violent — 2 bars]
FLOAT
— OR —
ROT
[immediate collapse back into doom tempo]

[Breakdown I]
[Funeral Slam]
I
AM
UNDER
UNDER
THE
TOWN
UNDER
THE BED
UNDER
THE CROWN
FEAR
IS
LAW
[Atmospheric Interlude (clean guitar / detuned piano]
[warped childlike melody, tape slowing]
[distant whisper]
Welcome… to Derry…
[Bridge]
[spoken, layered voices]
You don’t defeat me
You survive me
And survival
Tastes like regret
Every scar you buried alive
Comes back…
With teeth
[Final Chorus]
[choir + guttural]
WELCOME
— TO —
DERRY
NO
ESCAPE
WELCOME
— TO —
DERRY
BURIED
AWAKE
EVERY
STREET
LEADS
TO
ME
[Guitar Solo]

[Final Breakdown]
[absolute low-end punishment]
DOWN
THE
DRAIN
[sub-drop — silence]
DOWN
THE
DRAIN
FLOAT
— OR —
DIE
[Outro]
[whispered, barely human]
You don’t leave Derry
You decompose here
Welcome home..
