Tombstone lettering fades due to exposure to various environmental factors, primarily weathering and erosion. Rain, snow, and humidity can cause the stone to deteriorate over time, while UV radiation from sunlight can break down the pigments used in the lettering. Additionally, biological growth like lichen or moss can further contribute to the fading by physically wearing down the stone's surface. As these elements act on the tombstone, the contrast between the lettering and the stone diminishes, making the inscriptions less legible.
They will fade away.
They fade and moosh together. And they get wrinkly. Just like you will. They fade and moosh together. And they get wrinkly. Just like you will.
If the gravestone is a carbonate rock like limestone the rain will eventually erode the stone away as rain water is slightly acidic. Old tombstone are often illegible because of this as all the raised lettering is washed away. Alternately if the rain seeps into any cracks and freezes the stone will split or pall.
The flowers fade and die.
