Aviators - Writing On The Walls Lyrics
A deadened flame
We tried to fan
But nothing can change if no one takes a stand
They would rebel
Safe at home
It's all unjust
And I feel I must
Take an action towards
A brighter day
Stuck in between
The world and the screen
Life will never go your way
We're writing on the walls
But no one's looking
And nobody cares
We're building something new
And no one's with us
We've answered the call
But nobody's there
A world untouched
By hands that care
We live in a ghost town, and no one's scared
I'm going to try
To raise my voice
Not to strike fear, but offer a choice
So we've come this far
This is where it starts
It's a wake up call
For what's true
And I'm so betrayed
By those too afraid
To fight for the goals we pursue
We're writing on the walls
But no one's looking
We're fighting for the truth
And nobody cares
We're building something new
And no one's with us
We've answered the call
But nobody's there
Not with power, but with peace
We'll be the voice of the very least
So don't fear them, just stand behind
The truth you know, 'cause you know it's right
You're reblogs, your retweets, and your hate campaigns
Don't mean a thing, if you just complain
Enough silence, let's band with the restless few
If the driven rise, will they rise with you?
Will they rise with you?
(We're writing on the walls)
(But no one's looking)
(We're fighting for the truth)
(And nobody cares)
(We're building something new)
(And no one's with us)
(We've answered the call)
(And now I'm prepared)
We're writing on the walls
But no one's looking
We're fighting for the truth
And nobody cares
We're building something new
And no one's with us
We've answered the call
But nobody's there
We're writing on the walls
But no one's looking
We're fighting for the truth
And nobody cares
We're building something new
And no one's with us
We've answered the call
But nobody's there
We're writing on the walls...

Aviators Writing On The Walls Comments
Something magic in your voice and music
I remember when I first listened to this song! I'm so happy I found it again 🖤
this is the first time i've listened to it, but I thought it was weird that someone posted a comment the same day I listened to it given I'm 4 years late. It's really good so I see why you're happy to have found it again.
Still really wish this song had a good Persona 5 AMV/GMV to it. Totally fitting.
Were going into a new world , God Bless us all. It time for change ! Thanks Aviatar! Great song , and leading the way as part.💖
This is timeless i loved this when i was 15 and now that im 18 its still one of my fav song
If you take truth, as in a true message, as topic of your song, which is art, isn't it sarcasm by having it to be transported this way to reach people?
Aviators deserve more subs like wtf
At least to me, these lyrics describe what it feels like to be an atheist. Building something new, and no one's with us. That's the interpretation I put on genius.com.
reminds me a little of radioactive...
is a really awesome song! i've only discovered your music recently, and i love it.
i love this song mind if u use this in a vid im gonna make
I love this song!
Lol, I thought this was gonna be an Underoath cover and was like "Whaaat?! Aviators doing a post-hardcore cover?!" But then it wasn't, but I stayed since its really catchy. I like the woahs.
How does this only have 2k likes?
At first I thought it was Riding on the wolves
"a fun summer anthem"
This is, I think, the most depressing Aviators song I've ever heard.
Wanting a high quality Persona 5 GMV/AMV to this...
This song inspired the creation of one of my best paladins in D&D. I love it so much!
Am I the only one who hears a similar melody to 'Radioactive' By Imagine Dragons in this?
I like songs with strong messages, and songs about murder, because they actually tell a story. That's why I like your music, every song is a story and with the trash on the radio nowadays, you don't find a good story behind the song. I get inspired by you, Avi, and me being a writer, it helps a lot.
i really want to go flip off skynet after watching this...
i have no idea what i was thinking when i posted this.
'Nothings gonna change if no one takes a stand.'
HNNNNGGG BRRRRRRRRRRRR EPIC! REBELLION UNITE!
Let's see. Newest Deus Ex game, Warhammer: Verminide, Maybe Borderlands 2.
Just a few games which I can picture the main characters doing something to
I wonder if this could go with the Brony ideal to change the world by spreading love.
+Aviators Can you consider doing a collab with someone on youtube called NotJustBlonde2? Her voice is enchanting and I think it'd go well with yours. I'd love if you guys did!
Star Wars Rebels season 1 Anyone?
Sarah Cicle I can see the connection
I'M NOT ALONE!!! :D
Estavero numa numa yay
Why does this only have 91 k views?
Love it
Does this not sound like Radioactive - Imagine dragons A bit?
Me thinks
I'm late but yes I thought too.
i was wondering if i could use your songs in my videos?
that's the best song ever!
Super copy off of apocalypse by imagine dragons.
that song doesn't exist??
OPPS, it definitely does sound like an imagine dragons song though don't remember the name...
I can't help but be remind of the Railroad from the fallout games.
It sounds so radio-ready.
If it was on the radio
I'd be head-bopping the moment this played
I love this song so much, thank you for creating it!
omg so many mlp fans
He makes brony music also. Thats why.
Random Transformers Reference Of The Day: This sing is perfect for the crew of the 'Lost Light'
this song feels like it could be a Christian song, talking about how even though we try our best to spread the word no one is listening, but we keep trying anyway. thank you for this
Or you could say its about us atheist who are trying to spread the word, but none of y'all are listening. Its a double edged sword.
Oh my god, This was the first song I ever heard from you. Gosh, that was like, 1 year ago. Cheers Avi, you've really changed my life
Now I feel kinda like I'm a bad person for choosing the Order ideologi instead of the Freedom ideologi in Civ V
I love this song so much! The chorus is my favorite part! This is amazing!
I have to say, it feels like a mix of three or four songs. Not saying it's bad, just saying it feels like I can hear Radioactive and the Wrong Side.
both good songs, and they contribute well if they're there, though it could just be coincidence.
Seriously.. How are you not world wide. I'd rather listen to this than any bvb or three days grace song XD
This makes me think of people who have stopped accepting the nonsense from radicals on all spectrums
I like this song a lot. :) Can't believe I didn't find it before.
Best song ever! Can I use it in an animation please? Also, can I use it in credits for a video? It's alright if I can't.
made minecreft song PLZ
i get a big restless vibe from this
begining is like radioactive from imagine dragons
That moment when you know you love a song within the first five seconds of listening.
Acoustic please
I thought sam smith wrote this for the new james bond movie i might be mistaken but either way its a beautiful song
Can I use this song for a special video? This song's perfect.
I wonder if Aviators realized what the reference to scripture is.
"Writing on the walls" refers to a prophesy against King Belshazzar. His father had been prideful, and so his kingdom was taken away from him, and he ate the grass of the fields, until he declared the glory of God. Belshazzar knew this, and yet held a great banquet with the gold and silver goblets taken from the temple of Jerusalem.
"Suddenly the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall, near the lampstand in the royal palace." No one could read the writing, so Daniel was brought in to read it.
"This is the inscription that was written:
mene, mene, tekel, parsin
Here is what these words mean:
Mene: God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end.
Tekel: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting.
Peres: Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”
That same night, Belshazzar was slain, and Darius the Mede took over.
The actions of Belshazzar had already been proven before his time to lead to disasterous consequences, and yet he ignored those consequences. When he had ignored the warning for too long, he witnessed the final warning. By the time he saw this, it was too late.
The lyrics to the song, thus, imply "The end is here tonight, but no one sees it."
I can't stop listening it. 😂😂
Definitely one of my favorites of yours. Keep it up!
I don't know why but this sounds like Radioactive by Imagine Dragons
THIS IS THE BEST SONG EVER
hmm hello anyone in the phone nobody is there uys stick me were you go cya man got to go dammit no one stick me XD
GREATEST OF JOBS. DEFINITELY GOING TO BUY THIS
<3 I normally use a lot of words but just so much <3
I'm surprised that your not an official music artist yet I'd sign with you right away like and comment if you agree
I second!
I gotta be honest the way the second verse is sung reminds me a lot of Radioactive, the way his voice is tuned.
OH MY GOD! WHY IS THIS SONG SO FUCKING AWSOME!!!!
I have a problem, I have pressed replay at least 40 times in a row!
Need a new one? I have a spare.
0:00
No I just really like this song. :)
Fucking hell i can't listen to this song right now (I'm pissed about the TPP bill and when i tried to explain why it's horrible i just make people angry)
love this song!
This is awesome!!!
Make more!!!
Man, your the best!!!
I'm making an animation for this, about something similar to the meaning, the animations meaning is 'get past the haters' witch will have fandoms in it, I think there the best way to show the meaning, it will have fnaf,creepypasta fandoms with a lot of hate like those, and they write on the wall to show that they don't care, and the people in the fandom learn to stand against hate, and ignore it
WOW!!!!! This is AWSOME!!!!!!!
First????
Fun fact: most people in the world would die for Obama even if he was doing something bad and illegal and It could ruin the society but you know (sarcastic) Obama is apparently God
Well I can see that this is life today
Love it so much
Am I the only one who finds a resemblance to Radioactive - Imagine Dragons?
Anyway this song is awesome n.n
same here but I still love this song
same here but I still love this song
The mix sounds a little muddy, but other than that another great Aviators song!
I simply love this song, it has such a strong message for everybody around us. In a way this song reminds me of Panem, how everybody was trying to make a change yet the Capitol never wanted to listen. Avi, your music is great and inspiring, keep it up!
*silently adds to playlist*
Wow this is like my absolute favorite song now, this is really good!!! I'm surprised they aren't more famous. Seriously, this is an awesome song. I really am a fan. Keep up the good work!!!
Perfection. Might just be your best song. Though... The Fear of Flight and Heroes... I don't know. One of your best songs, anyway. Love it!
I really love this song. It helped me through a difficult choice and saved my live. Thank you avy your music saved my live when i wanted to take it away from myself
This song is amazing!
+Sam Woodward (can't reply to you directly) because of the glasses.
@Aviators Why is your name plural if there is just one of you? :P
I just wonder how Aviators manages to make a new unique song every time while also making of of them sounding so awesome. How do you do it Avi?
Sounds awesome!
The song Writing's on the Wall
The song Writing on the Walls
RADIOACTIVE!RADIOACTIVE!
Man, I started to miss you! Your songs are so sweet, always hit the spot!
hey +Aviators What equipment do you use to create your music?
Hey Aviators, love the song! Been listening to it for hours, great job!
I love it so much you inspired me to making something using GMod. It's not entirely relevant to the song, but I thought it was worth sharing. Thanks and keep up the good work.

So, you mean I should just run around with my dick flopping around instead of stating my opinions on public nudity? Wonderful!
Love your songs Aviators, they always have a deeper meaning that describes everyday life.
This could be the theme song of my past.
