[Verse 1]
Paper bib at my throat
White chair, cold as bone
He says, "you'll feel a pinch"
But my hands won't let go
Heel taps, jaw locked tight
I taste metal in my tongue
Clock ticks on the wall
And my heart won't come undone
[Pre-Chorus]
Count to ten
I can't even breathe
County of fear
Living in my teeth
Clench so hard
My knuckles go pale
Say it again
I swear I'm gonna fail
[Chorus]
I'm scared shitless
Scared shitless
Hold my hand, don't miss this
I'm scared shitless
I'm scared shitless
Scared shitless
Open up, I need this
I'm scared shitless
[Verse 2]
Glove snap, bright overhead
Little tools in a silver tray
You say "just a minute now"
I wish I could run away
My shoes won't touch the floor
My pulse is kicking down the door
If I bite down hard enough
Can I disappear for sure?
[Pre-Chorus]
Count to ten
I can't even breathe
County of fear
Living in my teeth
Clench so hard
My knuckles go pale
Say it again
I swear I'm gonna fail
[Chorus]
I'm scared shitless
Scared shitless
Hold my hand, don't miss this
I'm scared shitless
I'm scared shitless
Scared shitless
Open up, I need this
I'm scared shitless
[Bridge]
If I shake, let me shake
If I cry, let me cry
I'm still here in the chair
Still alive, still alive
One more breath
One more try
Say my name through the fear
And I'll make it to the other side
[Chorus]
I'm scared shitless
Scared shitless
Hold my hand, don't miss this
I'm scared shitless
I'm scared shitless
Scared shitless
Open up, I need this
I'm scared shitless
