My machete

My machete Lyrics

When I first arrive and you see me there,
your hopeful eyes shattered by despair
know what we used to be.
No one else is more confused than me.
Oh, I don't want to hurt you anymore.
I drop my machete to the floor.
You look so happy-sad.
I know I can't expect you'll wait for me.
The soft taste of your lips
conjures memories of a world
where petals fall from above.
It seems so far away.
I am lost, to both of our dismay.
Would someone please pass me the key
to this exam that I've written?
