Death she grows near
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (3)________ girl

I can't (4)__________ all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not just me

Locked up in silence

I (8)________ to be

But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not (9)________ me

I never asked or wanted to

You stepped across my threshold
How could you?
