WRITINGS ON THE WALL

Words & Music by: Piet Louter



No, you rather did not cry to catch the hurried people's eye
They really wouldn't understand, couldn't lend a hand
Whatever they would try
You have never found your voice, it would only drown in people's noise
Not a soul could ever know that your love of life must go
That you had no other choice

Writings on the wall
And people deaf and blind for a mischief on the way
Staring them in the face, they threw it to the winds
Writings on the wall are hardly understood
And later on it could appear that all is getting clear
But they'll never catch the truth


Now some people got confused
You are gone, but they'll never lose a kind of sense of shame
Feelings to be to blame for what caused you to do
And they finally realize, you threw dust in people's eyes
You were different as they thought
And they hate the way that brought your inner man to light

Writings on the wall
And people deaf and blind for a mischief on the way
Staring them in the face, they threw it to the winds
Writings on the wall are hardly understood
And later on it could appear that all is getting clear
But they'll never catch the truth
