last night

i want to ask her
but i can't
too much has happened
experience has taught us
the error of our ways
we cover our scars
with cocoa butter and long sleeves
with paying bills on time
acting responsibly
we are adults now
notice how i keep saying we
i want to ask her
but i'm afraid, last night
i asked her in a dream
come with me
i'll try harder
i'm different, better
i can make it up to you
i turned my head and closed my eyes
so strange to close your eyes in a dream
refusing to see what you already know
but i can't
too much has happened
experience has taught us
the error of our ways
we cover our scars
with cocoa butter and long sleeves
with paying bills on time
acting responsibly
we are adults now
notice how i keep saying we
i want to ask her
but i'm afraid, last night
i asked her in a dream
come with me
i'll try harder
i'm different, better
i can make it up to you
i turned my head and closed my eyes
so strange to close your eyes in a dream
refusing to see what you already know
