Frightened Lyrics

I shake and fall underneath my sheets
The sunlight creeping from my head down to my feet
Telling me to rise and face the light againI plead to dawn, "Don't make me move"
I just want to vanish and forget all that's true
Just one more night and I'll be alrightHoping to be everything you want
Wish I was the man that you thought I was
Waiting to fly up on eagles wings
But truth be told, I'm not that bold at allI'm more frightened
White lightening
So sudden and blinding
Yet no more enlightened
Yeah, just a little more frightenedI'm gonna get it back, I'm gonna get it soon
I've just got to catch up for my world to resume
To be light and to hold you tight while you dreamAnd I stand alone so does everyone
It brings us closer as a strange distant sum
So near so far like distance starsHoping to be everything you want
Wish I was the man that you thought I was
Waiting to fly up on eagles wings

But truth be told, I'm not that bold at allI'm just frightened
Woke up this morning like that
And all the roads that lead back
Lead me nothing that is nowhere
LonelyJust a little more frightened
White lightening
So sudden and blinding
Yet no more enlightened
Yeah, just a little more frightened
