Threshold by Anna Waronker

Inside (1)________ life
Under it's spell

I close my eyes
And live to tell

The (2)__________ we're dealt will (3)__________ disappear
Death she (4)__________ near
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (5)________ girl
I (6)________ to be
I can't (7)__________ all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not (8)________ me

Locked up in silence
A (9)____________ hell

My heart (10)__________ 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 used to be
I can't (14)__________ all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not (15)________ me

I never asked or wanted to

You (16)______________ across my threshold
How could you?
