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 engraved,

You'll find them on the walls of the cave,

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.

You'll find them on the walls of the cave.

Look at me and time stands still

A mountain here is now a hill.

Look away,

Look away,

The time goes past.

These rocks will fall away at last.

Look away.

Maybe you will see it

As you're passing by alone,

Below the moss forgotten

where some words that turned to 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
