Threshold

Am 
Inside this life, 
              D 
Under it's spell, 
Am 
I close my eyes, 
              D 
And live to tell. 
G              A 
The hands we're dealt, 
           C      G    Em 
Will never disappear. 
      A         C     G 
Death she grows near. 

 
D 
People change, 
And instantly. 
            G     
I'm not the same girl,  
F#     Em 
I used to be. 
D 
I can't erase all the memories,  
          G 
But I can explain,  
F#     Em 
If you're listening. 
       C 
People change,  
G        D 
Not just me. 

Am 
Locked up in silence,  
              D 
A living hell. 
Am 
My heart still beats, 
              D 
So I bid farewell. 
G                A 
The loving hand that saved me,  
 C        G    Em 
Held too tight. 
             A               C     G 
His darkness weighs on me at night. 


D 
People change, 
And instantly. 
            G     
I'm not the same girl,  
F#     Em 
I used to be. 
D 
I can't erase all the memories,  
          G 
But I can explain,  
F#     Em 
If you're listening. 
       C 
People change,  
G        D 
Not just me. 

Am 
I never asked,  
          D 
Or wanted to. 
Am 
You stepped across my threshold, 
          D 
How could you?
