I'm caught
Somewhere in between
Alive
And living a dream.
No peace
Just clicking machines
In the quiet of compazine.
The walls caved in on me.
And she sings
My bird dressed in white.
And she stings
My arm in the night.
I lay still
Still I'm ready to fight.
Have my lungs
But you can't take my sight.
The walls caved in
Tonight.
And out here
I watch the sun circle the earth
The marrows collide in rebirth
In God's glory praise
The spirit calls out from the caves.
The walls fell and there I lay
Saved.
The walls are caving in
As far as I can see
The walls are caving in
The doors got locked for sure
There's no one here but me
Beat my body like a rag doll
you stuck the needles in my hip
Said 'we're not gonna lie
Son, you just might die
Get you on that morphine drip, drip'
The walls are caving in
As far as I can see
The walls are caving in
The doors got locked for sure
There's no one here but me
I fought a war to walk a gang plank
Into a life I left behind
Windows leading to the past
Think it's time I broke some glass
Get this history off my mind
And what if we were married forever?
Like the past never happened
And time did not exist for us at all
I still think we'd still be traveling together
Through all kinds of weather
Everything's a piece of everyone
As far as I can see
Walls are caving in
Doors got locked for sure
But I see these doors have keys
Walls are caving in
As far as I can see
The walls are caving in
Doors got locked for sure
There's no one here but me
There's no one here but me
No one here but me, yeah.
There's no one here but me
No one here but me

Review about Caves Genius! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/1/09
This song is so powerful! The way that it starts off slow and sad touches my heart, but the way that it leads into the second half is pure genius! This and Hammers and Strings are probably my favorite songs off The Glass Passenger. Even though it was written about his battle with Leukemia, it's still easy for those of us not going through something as horrible as that to relate to! Andrew is such an inspiration!
