(Intro – Haunting, Theatrical, Soft-Spoken Over a Creepy Carnival Tune)
(Spoken, eerie whisper)
“Step right up… don’t be shy…
We have thrills… we have chills…
And you? Well… you’re never leaving.”
(Build-up: Glitchy violins, distorted laughter, and a heartbeat-like bass creeping in.)
(Sung, playful but unsettling, like a twisted nursery rhyme.)
Tick-tock, tick-tock, time’s running thin,
Won’t you step inside? Let the madness begin…
Handshakes, heartbreaks, tears on the floor,
But don’t be afraid—we’ve got room for more!
(PRE-DROP – Fast-Paced Rap Over Rising Tension, Screeches & Alarms)
(Rap, bouncy but aggressive.)
Runnin’ through the funhouse, doors all fake,
Chainsaw grin and a rattlesnake shake,
Lace that tea with a little arsenic,
Now smile real big for the candid pic!
(Silence… Then a whisper.)
“You should’ve read the fine print.”
(DROP 1 – METAL/TRAP CARNIVAL OF CHAOS)
(Screamed)
WELCOME TO THE CIRCUS OF PSYCHOS!
NO GOD, NO LAW, NO HOPE!
STEP RIGHT UP, GET TORN IN TWO!
THEY CLAP, THEY LAUGH—THEY’RE ALL LIKE YOU!
(808s slam, distorted guitars shred, demonic laughter glitches in and out.)
(Post-Drop – Chanting Hook, Catchy & Anthemic)
Oh no, oh no, the joke’s on you!
Took a wrong turn, now you’re part of the crew!
Face paint smeared and the lights burn red,
Should’ve played nice—now you’re one of the dead!
⸻
(Verse 2 – Glitchy, Fast-Flow Rap Over Unhinged Beat)
Lights flicker, mirrors crack,
I see you but you don’t see back,
White gloves, red stains, handshakes fake,
If they call your name—you won’t escape!
(Beat slows, warped carnival melody takes over.)
(Pre-Drop 2 – Energy Builds Again, Whispered, Glitching & Malfunctioning)
(Spoken, robotic voice cutting in and out.)
“Error 404: SANITY NOT FOUND.”
(High-pitched giggles, alarms wailing, sirens in reverse.)
(Soft, teasing, like a puppeteer pulling strings.)
Come on, don’t cry—it’s just a game…
What’s a little pain?
(Silence… then BOOM.)
(DROP 2 – EVEN HEAVIER, SLAMMING TRAP/DEATHCORE BREAKDOWN)
(Screamed)
JUMP! JUMP! NOW HIT THE FLOOR!
BREAK YOUR TEETH—DO IT ONCE MORE!
SPIN THAT WHEEL—WHAT’S YOUR FATE?
DOOR #1 OR A BLINDFOLDED GRAVE?!
(Bass hits like a wrecking ball, guitars chug, and glitchy voices whisper.)
(Bridge – Hyperpop Breakdown, Beautiful Yet Distorted Melody)
(Sung, soft and angelic, contrasting the destruction.)
Step right up, take my hand,
We’ll dance in flames until we land…
No way out, no way down,
So wear your crown—of thorns and sound.
(FINAL DROP – CHAOTIC GRAND FINALE, EVERYTHING EXPLODES)
(Screamed, fast-paced, everything distorting and burning down.)
WELCOME TO THE CIRCUS, HAVE A GOOD TIME!
DOLL HEADS DANCE WHILE THE CHURCH BELLS CHIME!
ROUND AND ROUND, ‘TIL THE WORLD GOES BLACK!
AND IF YOU WAKE UP—YOU’RE NEVER COMING BACK!
(Sudden silence… then a slow, eerie music box fades out…)
(Soft whisper, barely audible.)
Tick-tock… tick-tock… time’s running thin…
EXXILE
