Scared To Death Lyrics

I've never seen these things so clear
Scared in the face of the things I fear
Petrified I lost my breath
I'm scared, I'm scared
Stuck on the thought of having nothing left
I'm scared, I'm scared

I've never seen these things so clear
These words I speak I'm being sincere
Electrified straight from the heart
I'm scared, I'm scared
Right on the brink of being torn apart
I'm scared, I'm scared

All the facts that I've been shown
I'm scared to death of dying alone
Hold me closer than I've ever known
I'm scared to death of dying alone

Hold me closer
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you
Ask me now I'd say I do
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you

I wanna kill everything I fear
I'm scared, I'm scared
I wanna kill off all my fear

All the facts that I've been shown
I'm scared to death of dying alone
Every chance that I've been thrown
I'm scared to death of dying alone
Everyone is screaming, everyone's crying
If I didn't feel it you know I'm lying
So hold me closer than I've ever known
I'm scared to death of dying along

Hold me closer
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you
Ask me now I'd say I do
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you

These words I speak I'm being sincere
Electrified straight from the heart
I'm scared, I'm scared

Ask me now I'd say I do
If you'd kill for me I'd die for you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I always interpret "If you'd kill for me I'd die for you" as meaning if you'd kill me then I'd be dying for you...

"I'm scared to death of dying alone"
