[Verse 1]
You cautiously contort as you enter the cave
A stream trickles by as the night overtakes the day
Adverbs, adjectives, they fail to describe
The many strange sights that overcome your tiring eyes
Bioluminescent mushrooms and glow worms, they guide you
As something new and strange stirs inside you
This quest and this place make no sense at face value
But something very odd does indeed seem to corral you
Ever deeper, you start to see thе creepers, the crawlers
Thе tiny eyeless fish and bottom trawlers
Suddenly your heart begins to spasm
As the cave, it opens up into an underground cavern
[Bridge]
Moss, trees, crystals, streams, purple amethyst
Jut forth here and somehow subsist
Even so, you’re still in a crack in the earth
You snap off a crystal and you wonder at its worth
[Verse 2]
Instantly the ground starts to shake with a quake
You hear alarm bells ringing, drop the crystal, and it breaks
Oh shit, oh no, the way you came back in is closed
You start to move across the room and then you see the stream’s froze
Not frozen in ice, but in time the room’s fixed
The images around you slowly cease to exist
The room’s a dark black trap and tells only lies
And through the dark now you see pair upon pair of red eyes
You search for an exit as the eyes draw near
You have a vision of the constable standing on the pier
You feel a knock on your head, and your knees start to go
Time will say nothing but I told you so
[Outro]
Oh, time
Time will say nothing but I told you so
Oh, time
You know that time will say nothing but I
Oh, time (Maybe it’s just you and me)
Time will say nothing but I told you so (Maybe we’re just nobody)
Oh, time
Time will say nothing but I
Oh, time (Maybe it’s just you and me)
Time will say nothing but I told you so (Maybe we’re just nobody)
Oh, time
Time will say nothing but I
Oh, time
But there’s no way that I can go back
The sea is blue and the past is black
If I could see the future I would let you know
But time will say nothing but I told you so
