LYRICS
So go on
And I will refrain
And I'll keep on running this neverending race
maybe next time will be the right time
and maybe next time will be your time
So save your scissors
For someone else's skin
My surface is so tough
I don't think the blade will dig in
Save your strength
Save your wasted time
There's no way that I want you to be left behind
Go on save your scissors
Save your scissors
So why does it always seem
That every time I turn around
Somebody falls in love with me?
This has never been my sole intention
And I have never claimed to have patents on such inventions
Just save your scissors
For someone else's skin
My surface is so tough
I don't think the blade will dig in
Save your strength
Save your wasted time
There's no way that I want you to be left behind
Go on save your scissors
Save your scissors
There is something that I must confess to you tonight
To you tonight
And that is I expect nothing less from you tonight
From you tonight
Go on save your scissors
Save your scissors
Save your scissors

Brings back memories... Anyone else listen to old songs and just start shedding tears for no reason?
Alllllways
Literally means you're probably close to my age 😂 (early-mid thirties)
Shibby
@@crazypolite yeah i'm 91
1991.
LOL! not 91
The fact that this song doesn’t even have 1M views in over 15 years is a crime. It’s a masterpiece. Forever nostalgic.
I can of like the fact that it’s not extremely well known.
update its paased a million
When life kicks your ass so hard you gotta cruise and listen to City and Colour.
so like everyday lately?
Fucking eh brother.
Aww baby Dallas! It's so weird seeing him without his beard. I will never get tired of hearing his voice. It always soothes me.
Ikr
If I ever heard the voice of an angel, I'd probably say "Nice, but I prefer Dallas Green"
One and the same my friend
His voice... its everything
Absolutely 💯
I remember this on Much More Music back when I was a kid. didn't like the song too much, now I do. never knew I would grow older to appreciate City & Colour
amen brother
when i first heard this song on the radio i never knew this was the guy from alexisonfire
how the fuck does this not even have a million views this is a CERTIFIED classic seriously what the hell
Nearly there
1 million!
Love the little Alexisonfire cameo.
Dallas’ smooth voice and soothing strum of his acoustic guitar makes me teary eyed every time I listen to his music. Love his music 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Just discovered this song, absolutely amazing. I have listened to it 5 times in a row.
It's 04 I'm watching this on Much Music as a innocent 14 year old kid that didn't appreciate the lyrics , here almost 20 years later a little wiser with a bit more life experience.
amen
Takes me right back... 🎉❤
Yup... unlocks that time.
This brings back memories
The only album and time frame I'm into from Dallas's solo project.
I remember going to his first solo tour for City and Colour. Really amazing voice!
It's 2004,im a awakward teen watching this 🔥 video on my parents old wooden box tv from the 70s watching it on Much Music like a good Canadian of course 🤘 ♥️.
The nostalgia of this song and video (especially since it was filmed in my hometown) actually makes me physically ill but euphoric at the same time
Brings me back to my first love in high school, her mother hated my guts because I had a mischief charge on my record which she easily found given she was a police officer. She moved them 3 provinces away just to keep me away from her. I still think about her all the time, this was grade 9 and I'm 29 now; I have never loved someone the way I loved her since.
The nostalgia here is wild
Heard this somewhere, either on the radio or on Much Music, as a youuuuuung child. Couldn't remember the lyrics or anything, just an angelic voice and "leave it all behind". For the last +10 years ive been trying to find Mobile's minor hit "Out of my head" and THIS song, feels so good to have found it finally
I always always loved that transition from live to recorded in the beginning.
For real! Just learned how to play this on guitar after nearly 18 years of listening and can’t stop getting emotional 😩 What a song!
Growing up in St. Kitts, it's hard not to like this video. Cruisin into Ostenaks music to get strings and grabbin pizza on St Paul street. Good memories.
Rob A. agreed
Dont
Agreed
Definitely in my top 10 favorite songs of all time I love to sing this Dallas has a beautiful voice and I don't know why but I can listen to this on repeat all day without it bother me or getting sick of it thank you so much for this music
THANK YOU DALLAS GREEN!!!!!
Love the small-town, slow, simple life portrayed in this video.
Filmed in St. Catherine’s. Love that city
Not a small town, population of currently 875,000. I'd say it's a city lmao
I think he was still living with his parents at this point too!
@@jadehedden3176 try 150,000 dummy i live there
@@jadehedden3176 try 150,000 dummy i live there
I'd kill to have a voice like Dallas greens'.
2006, I'm in the Detroit market doing cell phone tower work, this song was a hit on the river 101.9...been listening ever since...21'
Still amazing in 2020
So much nostalgia
That voice can't find appropriate words to describe it but it seems like there isn't another like it up till now and it's extremely soothing
back when i was grade 8 elementary school southern ont he came to a school gym and played a free concert about 5 songs for us this song included, really cool guy dallas was.
I only found out about this guy through alexisonfire; so glad I did... His songs are just completely out of this world and mean so much to so many different people, it's actually frightening how much this guys voice can make you feel. Absolutely breathtaking
This video brings back so many memories, from grimy downtown St.kitts to Pizza Pizza on St. Paul to my friends bar L3. I don't get why I love this city, hate it, but its home I guess.
Feel that
We love you Dallas,, always and forever... this song helped me sooo much through a tough time... never stop making this art that some people call `music`.... THANK YOU!!!
Still love this song just as much as the first time I heard it ❤
I don't think there is one person this guy can't move I don't care who you are this guy is beautiful in every way!
Man, I miss Saint Catherine's I hope I can make it back soon! Or at least before I Die.
When this came out I was in high school and literally it saved my life
Really cool seeing the way St. Catharines looked as I remember it.
2005… what a year to be alive. Was already a fan of AoF then this came around. “Oh how the years have been good to me”
this song made me cry.. it made me realize that it' ok, that life will be ok
I don't know what it is but there's something I really love about this video... It's so simple💜
love this song
OTTAWA SENDING LOVE...take care of your self as we enter the difficult time 2020.. CORONA
Bad politics is as bad. World is in a bad place in afraid
Shout out to St. Catherine’s!!! Love that city
Damn this is nostalgic
Canadian Classic!!!
this video doesn't help Canada's fight to prove that its not always covered in snow.
+Patrick Star
Depends where you live. I live on the West Coast (I am from Alberta originally) and we almost never get snow. Once in awhile we get a light dusting for a couple days, and it's hilarious how bad it fucks up everybody's life. Nobody knows how to drive, shovel, or generally survive in snow, because it's so foreign to us over here :P
+MrVidsAllDay dont come to the east coast black ice and snow is like all we know (NB)
+MrVidsAllDay Vancouver here, It MIGHT snow once in a year and when it does there is hardly any of it. mainly we just get rain or sun so its not too bad.
What's up with snow? I think it's so beautiful... I love Canada, I hope someday I can visit It
Before someone answer me that. Yes! I know that there are a lot of problems in terms of safety when It comes to snow. I'm Just telling that there is nothing wrong with Canada bc it has snow.
WICKED TUNE!! LOVE IT MORE NOW THEN EVER! 😉👍🇨🇦
Can't believe this ain't hit a million views yet..oh well ..we will get there 🙂
Nearly friend
starts crying immediately
why do i always feel that the video clips of city and colour are from a part of some documentary
They r Canadians greatest history :)
LOL

Love this song
This song is so legendary
ahh.. Canadian winters:) what a great video!

this is a beautiful start to 2022
When I was in grade 9 ish I played guitar after school and would fall asleep to this song with my headphones in. Truly made me who I am today. Or made me recognize I'm unique in the best way possible

I found out about this guy two days ago. there isn't anything he does that isn't my favorite song.
This song *is* my 3 years in Sault Ste Marie.
Miss you Katrina....
Dallas Is quite possibly the best thing thats ever happened to me
I honestly couldn't agree more!
2019 Strong, like this if you are in 2019. I come back to this comment section every couple of months for years now. I love you all that are struggling, you’ll get through it. Life is more than this moment that you are having. Stay Strong.
