Threshold by Anna Waronker

Inside (1)________ life
Under it's spell

And live to tell

The hands we're dealt will never disappear
Death she (2)__________ near
People change
And instantly
I'm not the same girl
I used to be
I can't (3)__________ all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not just me

Locked up in silence
A (4)____________ hell

My heart still beats
So I bid farewell

The loving hand that saved me
Held too tight
His darkness (5)____________ on me at night
People change
And instantly
I'm not the (6)________ girl
I (7)________ to be
I can't (8)__________ all the memories
But I can explain
If you're listening
People change
Not (9)________ me

I never asked or wanted to

You stepped across my threshold
How could you?
