JFH Song Lyrics

  Artist List   /   Jars of Clay   /   If I Left the Zoo


         


10. Can't Erase It

If I Left the Zoo
by Jars of Clay

 

Follow the crowd and love everybody now
'Cause love is the best thing for you now
But you changed your mind
You let everybody down
But down is the best place for you
It's easier that way

You know it's so wrong
Can't embrace it
Wish sometimes for any other you
But you can't erase it
And you won't escape it

Don't waste your time
Your words only confine you
To all of the things you've buried now
Don't ask them why
Their wisdom will leave you blind
But blind is the best thing for you
It's easier I know

You know it's so wrong
Can't embrace it
Wish sometimes for any other you
But you can't erase it
And you won't escape it

How long will you face it
'Til the wait comes crashing down on you
'Cause you can't erase it
And you won't escape it
