Jacket Made In Canada

Arcwelder Jacket Made In Canada Lyrics
1.Harmonic Instrumental

(music arcwelder, words s macdonald)
Now the closets are empty used to be full
Empty lover standing where once there was a soul
Touch down come down
You can lose your footing when you chase after a dream
Emotions forming gateways not as open as they seem

All i want is some body to take me in their arms say 'sall right
I have wanted that all a long don't worry i won't hold my breath

Why waste time and money what we know is the truth
Funny all of our lives when they blast through the roof
Come down touch down
A body at rest stays at rest all decided long ago
Nothing in the language how well i know


2.Daydream

(music r graber, words s macdonald)
I can't stop this daydream in my life
You dodge the edge of the daydream in my mind
Why do you try to stop this good thing all the time

Bigger, fatter, wider, deeper still
I'd have my back against the wall be climbing up that hill

I try to control the brushfire in my life
You fan the flames of the brushfire ever higher
You have always been very powerful to me

Bigger, fatter, wider, deeper still
I'd have my back against the wall be climbing up that hill


3.Missing


4.Hint Taken

(music w graber/s macdonald, words s macdonald)
It seems one day that you'll be spitting the next day you are
sitting
Next to him holding his hand
It all adds up to aggravating it all adds up to irritating
I'm afraid i don't understand
One day you say that you hate him the next week you act like you
love him
Why can't you make up your damn mind
Before my company was welcome today i am an imposition
Happens to me all of the time

Hear all the sights , see all the sounds
I'll always be frustrated again

I throw myself into the fire and i will burn for my desire
Fall to my death upon the rocks
These setbacks take their toll upon me i try too hard and i will
Finally trap myself here with my own locks
What i've seen really shouldn't matter you'd think that i had
always had her
Why must i always feel so hurt
I never have to ask for heartache i stop to dream and i get
heartbreak
Clouds won't keep me from hitting dirt

Hear all the sights , see all the sounds
I'll always be frustrated again

I understand it that you don't understand it and it's weighing
heavy on your heart
What can i tell you that i don't have answers but i guess you
knew that from the start


5.Left


6.Plastic


7.Favor

(music r graber, words s macdonald)
Gonna do myself a favor, quit while i'm behind
It seems like all this hanging on will only mess up my mind
And don't have many options at least none i can find
It always seems so hard to take when what you're weaving unwinds

Gonna do myself a favor, quit while i'm ahead
Take some time to lick my wounds and write some music instead
Take it out of me and purify what's left here in my soul
Funny how what seems so free can take a very big toll

Gonna do myself a favor, write it off as lost
What i have to show from this does not keep up with the cost
Gonna look around and think about the next step i should take
Pull it back together the best decision i'll make


8.When You're Gone

(music r graber, words s macdonald)
Think about the earth and the sun and the moon
Tell me how we should react when they turn into your spittoon
You'd like to make as much as your age by twenty five
I'd like to make a lasting impression while i'm still alive

When you're gone

Time to take a serious look at what really counts
I won't judge people by sizes of bank accounts
It makes no sense when the working is so hard
Money is money is cash you can't send me a postcard

When you're gone

You somehow come you somehow go is there something more you need
to know
No insight love or lasting pain but you know it isn't just some
game and all this means
I know one thing this is this is happiness i guess and all i
really know is this

When you're gone...


9.Everything


10.Staback

(s macdonald)
If i turn my head the other way won't nobody know better
If no one has a thing to say nothing will ever upset her
If i never wear a suit or tie i don't think it will matter
If i strike out while i'm at the plate they'll forgive me with
the very next batter

It seems this thing is killing me and
I can't find a way out
Everything that's been done 's been done for ease
Eliminate possibilities
I choke myself with my own hand
I'm drawing circles in the sand

When my hands are cold and my hair is gray will they ever
remember
When my eyes were bright will it all be december
When it comes down to my own true thoughts i always think about
leaving
When i run away and i leave the rest who will be doing the
grieving


And i don't know what i do this for is it only a living
And i forget it all when i close the door could it be mine for
the giving
And i try to bring myself around think about something or other
And my head is down and i hide myself from the eyes of a staring
big brother


11.I Hates To Lose

(s macdonald)
I played my cards, i played them badly
I didn't think she'd move on to better things
I gave my love, i gave it gladly
How i hate when you wait in the wings
She wanted you, she wouldn't tell me
Told my self that it'd work out this way
My thoughts of you are quite unhealthy
Why do i feel like a big shitheel today?

I hate to lose to a man like you
After she said that you were no good to me
I hate to lose to a man like you
After she said that you were no threat to me
