Threshold by Anna Waronker
Inside this life
Under it's spell
I (1)__________ my eyes
And (2)________ to tell
The (3)__________ we're (4)__________ will never disappear
Death she grows near
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (5)________ girl
I (6)________ 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 (7)__________ (8)__________ beats
So I bid farewell
The (9)____________ hand (10)________ (11)__________ 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 just me
I (15)__________ (16)__________ or wanted to
You (17)______________ across my threshold
How could you?
