Threshold

Waronker Anna

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.

*CHORUS*
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.

*CHORUS*
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?
