Threshold by Anna Waronker
Inside this life
Under it's spell
I (1)__________ my eyes
And live to tell
The hands we're (2)__________ (3)________ (4)__________ disappear
Death she (5)__________ near
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (6)________ girl
I used 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 living hell
My heart still beats
So I bid farewell
The loving hand (7)________ saved me
Held too tight
His darkness weighs on me at night
People change
And instantly
I'm not the same girl
I used to be
I can't (8)__________ all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not just me
I (9)__________ asked or wanted to
You stepped across my threshold
How could you?
