Lyrics Center Aisle - Caedmon's Call

Thank god I'm back in my car
Driving home, 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 I'd remember
Presence is
A good friend once told me
And he was there, he was there
But she wasn't there
And it's not fair, it's not fair
And what crimes have you committed
Demanding such a penance?
Couldn't wait for five more minutes
And a 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 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
And what crimes have you committed
Demanding such a penance?
Couldn't wait for five more minutes
And a 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 center aisle
And I think about my brother
And how I just stood there
With my hands in my pockets
And my heart in my throat
Thank god I'm back in my car
Driving home, driving home
But in that place I leave all my days
Of taking life for granted
And the words I wrote for her
And my best friend crying
And the young girl lying
On all our hearts
And what crimes have you committed
Demanding such a penance?
Couldn't wait for five more minutes
And a cry for help
'Cause this room is so peaceful
And this room is so quiet
And I hate the silence
And I hate the silence
And I can't walk center aisle
