Caves cave

I am nervous for the day the birds break

And the sun dials

And ashes land on my forgotten hand

I'm nervous for the day the leaves sleep

And the dawn fades

And the winds begin to cry

I'm nervous for the day 

When the moon dips 

And the clouds split

Into the ground of the sea of time 

Walk softly, quietly, so they can't heard your breath

It's aching and aching 

And aching with each small baby step

I'm nervous for the day 

When the sun fades

And the caves cave

And the mountains finally make

A window to my soul
