Threshold by Anna Waronker
Inside this life
Under it's spell
I close my eyes
And live to tell
The hands we're dealt will never disappear
Death she grows near
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (1)________ girl
I (2)________ 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 (3)____________ hand (4)________ (5)__________ 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 erase all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not (6)________ me
I never (7)__________ or wanted to
You (8)______________ (9)____________ my threshold
How could you?
