Threshold by Anna Waronker
Inside this life
Under it's spell
I (1)__________ my eyes
And (2)________ to tell
The (3)__________ we're dealt (4)________ (5)__________ disappear
Death she (6)__________ near
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (7)________ girl
I (8)________ to be
I can't erase all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not just me
Locked up in silence
A (9)____________ hell
My (10)__________ still beats
So I bid farewell
The loving hand (11)________ saved me
Held too tight
His (12)________________ weighs on me at night
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (13)________ girl
I (14)________ to be
I can't erase all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not (15)________ me
I never asked or (16)____________ to
You stepped across my threshold
How (17)__________ you?
