Writings on the Wall Songtext
von Sam Smith

I′ve been here before
But always hit the floor
I've spent a lifetime running
And I always get away
But with you, I′m feeling something
That makes me want to stay

I'm prepared for this
I never shoot to miss
But I feel like a storm is coming
If I'm gonna make it through the day
Then there′s no more use in running
This is something I got to face


If I risk it all
Could you break my fall?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you′re not here, I'm suffocating
I want to feel love run through my blood
Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
For you, I have to risk it all
′Cause the writing's on the wall

A million shards of glass
That haunt me from my past
As the stars begin to gather
And the light begins to fade
When all hope begins to shatter
Know that I won′t be afraid

If I risk it all
Could you break my fall?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you're not here, I′m suffocating
I want to feel love run through my blood
Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
For you, I have to risk it all
'Cause the writing's on the wall
The writing′s on the wall


How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you′re not here, I'm suffocating
I want to feel love run through my blood
Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you′re not here, I'm suffocating
I want to feel love run through my blood
Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
For you, I have to risk it all
′Cause the writing's on the wall
