Terrifying Clowns

The circus lights are flickering low
Red balloons in a deadly glow
Laughter echoes sharp and cold
Painted faces
Stories untold

Behind the mask
A hollow stare
Cotton candy hides despair

Terrifying clowns
They're coming around
Smiles so wide
But they never make a sound
Run if you can
Or stay and drown
In the shadows of the terrifying clowns

Big red shoes that stomp the night
Juggling fears in the pale moonlight
Their shadows stretch
They loom so tall
In their funhouse
You'll lose it all

Every joke's a razor blade
Laughter's where the fear is made

Terrifying clowns
They're coming around
Smiles so wide
But they never make a sound
Run if you can
Or stay and drown
In the shadows of the terrifying clowns
