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 loving hand that 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 just me

I never asked or wanted to

You stepped across my threshold
How could you?
