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 same 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 (1)____________ hand that (2)__________ me
Held too tight
His darkness (3)____________ on me at night
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (4)________ 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
I (5)__________ (6)__________ or wanted to
You stepped (7)____________ my threshold
How (8)__________ you?
