Thank God I’m back in my car 
And driving home, and driving home 
Cause the air was thin and so cold 
Back in there 
It was my first time 
Won't be my last time 
And the questions rise 
Expectations fall 
In light of it all 

There aren't words to say, 
Words aren't remembered 
The presence is 
A good friend once told me 
And he was there, he was there 
She wasn’t there 
And it’s not fair, it’s not fair 

What crimes have you committed 
Demanding such penance 
That couldn't wait for five more minutes 
And I cry for help 
Cause this room is so peaceful 
And this room is so quiet 
And I hate the silence 
And I can’t walk 
The center aisle 

I’ve been here for over three hours 
Behind the flowers 
So beautiful and young 
And so alive 
And so in need of someone, 
Someone to talk to them 
Cause theirs are fragile lives 

What crimes have you committed 
Demanding such penance 
That couldn't wait for five more minutes 
And I cry for help 
Cause this room is so peaceful 
And this room is so quiet 
And I hate the silence 
And I can’t walk 
The center aisle 

I think about my brother 
And how I just stood there 
My hands in my pockets, 
And my heart in my throat 

Thank god I’m back in my car 
And driving home, and driving home 
But in that place I leave 
All my days 
I’ve taken life for granted 
And the words I wrote for her 
And my best friend crying 
And a young girl lying 
On all our hearts 

What crimes have you committed 
Demanding such penance 
That couldn't wait for five more minutes 
And I cry for help 
Cause this room is so peaceful 
And this room is so quiet 
And I hate the silence 
And I can’t walk 
The center aisle
