Description "Terrified"

I slept all day today so I wouldn't have to think about last night
Now I have all of tonight alone to think, of what might not and what might
I've seen the face of god, and it's because of this
It's so real and pure, is it something even the disciplined can resist?
A game to gamble with, dice to roll
Possession and contradiction of one's soul
I crossed a bridge last year that I wanted to burn this August
Certain thoughts so frequent and persistent, proportion not modest

I walked across another bridge tonight
And I'm thinking about burning it along my way
I just walked across another tonight
And I'm thinking about forgetting I did, to myself, I say

Oh, I don't wanna listen to you right now
I tell myself
I don't wanna listen to you right now
I stopped talking to myself
I got tired of listening
If I listened in the beginning, I don't know how
And I said I don't know how
I could stand myself

I'm scared of what I have to say
I'm terrified
I want to learn, I want to try
But I'm terrified

Terrified of powerlessness
Terrified of my own curiosity
Terrified of vulnerability
Terrifyingly in love with your philosophy

I slept in again, my head hurts, I don't want time to myself
I know tonight I'll have forever, and this is fucking around with my health
I'm fucking myself over with this obsessive compulsion
I give ourselves forever and my patience is going into convulsion
Juxtaposed one time compared to this, where I was half empty and on a thread of content
Now the glass is half full, but I need even more time to vent
It's fall, and winter is closer to me than you
This craving and hunger is something I can't get used to
Not till I know you feel it too

I told you this once
I'll tell you again...

I'm scared of what I have to say
I'm terrified
I want to learn, I want to try
But I'm terrified

Terrified of powerlessness
Terrified of my own curiosity
Terrified of vulnerability
Terrifyingly in love with your philosophy

Fireflies fly to the lights
They have their own, but they want more
Desperation and infatuation
They're in lust, dead and unnoticed,
They go on ignored on the patio floor
They're terrified but they want to touch the light
And they just might...
They might

I'm terrified
