Threshold by Anna Waronker

Inside this life
Under it's spell

I (1)__________ my eyes
And live to tell

The (2)__________ we're dealt will (3)__________ disappear
Death she grows near
People change
And instantly
I'm not the same girl
I (4)________ 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 (5)__________ beats
So I bid farewell

The loving (6)________ (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 erase all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not (8)________ me

I (9)__________ asked or wanted to

You stepped across my threshold
How could you?
