Paradise At Last

Two hands
They are armed again
The way your mouth bends and breaks
Like you were getting away with something

In my dreams, I am driving drunk again
In my dreams, you are chasing me, knife in hand
In my dreams, I like us better
Where I am bold and you are honest

In between everything
You will think about the way
Her shoulders shake in the dream you had
Where you cut off your hands
So you could stop staring at them
And begging them
Begging them to stay
