The Writing's On The Wall
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The writing's on the wall
And it's plain enough to see
Your heart has found a new love
That you'd rather have than me
Every time i call you
Your pretending on the phone
That i am just a stranger
So i know you’re not alone
You can't hide what my heart can see
Someone took my place
There's no need pretending
It's written on your face
But i love you so much
That i won't stand in your way
The writing's on the wall
So it's useless for me to stay
