Walls Of The Cave

I'm leaving you a message, I'm leaving you a trace

I'm leaving thoughts for you I hope that time will not erase

And when the moment comes to read the words that I engrave

You'll find them on the walls of the cave

I know you heard the question but you didn't make a sound

And when it fell you caught my heart before it hit the ground

But if you ever need the names of those you couldn't save

You'll find them on the walls of the cave

Look at me

The time stands still

The mountain here is now a hill

Look away

The time goes past

These rocks will fall away at last

Maybe you will see it as you're passing by alone

Below the moss forgotten where some stones adorn a stone

It might have been an etching on a marker of a grave

Or maybe on the walls of the cave

Listen to

The silent trees

But still your words float on the breeze

Look away

I see them all

Carved into the cavern wall
