Machete - Amanda Palmer

I have never liked the box of knives

You said was a paradox because you’re kind

But withstood a trial till that robbed you, blinded

Love that was safe and so you learned to fight

I have never liked the boxes of knives

You said was a paradox because you’re kind

But withstood a trial till that robbed you blind of

Love that was safe and so you learned to fight

I have never liked the boxes of knives

You said was a paradox because you’re kind

But withstood a trial till that robbed you blind of

Love that was safe and so you learned to fight

I have never liked the boxes of knives

You said was a paradox because you’re kind

But withstood a trial till that robbed you blind of

Love that was safe and so you learned to fight

What do I do with the stuff

It seems like yesterday I called you up

I had a terrible case of the past

I didn’t know how to get it off

I didn’t know how to get it off

And you took

Your machete

And you sliced through the vines that wrapped around me

And you said

I dont know what I’m doing

So I’ll just keep of cutting

It’s worth a little blood to get your arms free

I have never liked the boxes of knives

You said was a paradox because you’re kind

But withstood a trial till that robbed you blind of

Love that was safe and so you learned to fight

I have never liked the boxes of knives

You said was a paradox because you’re kind

But withstood a trial till that robbed you blind of

Love that was safe and so you learned to fight

What do I do with the stuff

It seems like yesterday I was in love

I kept on hardening the soft parts out

I didn’t know how to get them off

I didn’t know how to get them off

And you took

Your machete

And you hacked through the wood in the surrounding

And you said

I dont where I’m doing

I’m just heading from the dead things piled up behind me

And you took

Your machete

And you carved out a path to my chest

And you said

There’s nothing not worth keeping

You felt so many beatings

But nothings gonna work if you believe me

But nothings gonna work if you believe me

I have never liked the boxes of knives

You said was a paradox because you’re kind

But withstood a trial till that robbed you blind of

Love that was safe and so you learned to fight

I have never liked the boxes of knives

You said was a paradox because you’re kind

But withstood a trial till that robbed you blind of

Love that was safe and so you learned to fight

I have never liked the boxes of knives

I’d take it to the ocean side the day you die

I stood out on the dock no matter how hard I tried

Couldn’t drop it in a?

What do I do with the stuff

Seems like yesterday you were alive

And it’s as if you never really died

And it’s as if you never really died

And you took

Your machete

You said boo, guess who, but seriously beauty

You said see you got the drill now don’t you

It’s not a will wont

You can’t keep making symbols out of nothing

So I took

Your machete

And I sliced off your hand into after

See it’s just like anti-matter

It’s dumbers matching favel

You don’t need me here to cut you

You don’t need me here to cut you

You don’t need me here to cut you

You don’t need me here to cut you

You don’t need me here to cut you
