It could be seen in a 'What does he have to feel terror about?' way, and that'd be valid. On the other hand. because we're all different, one person feeling 'a deep and profound terror' at a doofus like George W Bush being elected president, isn't outwith of the boundaries of the human experience, you might say. I'd probably put it as 'something concerning which I try not to think about', but I'm not an emotionally expressive and successful musician. Obviously, any terror he talks about feeling wouldn't be like being a soldier - I think some people are just 'Very feeling feely people'. I know of one or two through my more alternative/hippy friends, and their reactions to some things can surprise me.
