Ignite
Alan Walker Lyrics

Fireflies, a million little pieces
The scattered fireflies in the dark night represent the shattered pieces of hope and aspiration that are hidden away deep inside us.

Feeds the dying light, and brings me back to life
These little pieces of light may seem insignificant, but they are able to revive the dimming hope inside and make life worth living again.

In your eyes, I see something to believe in
The lyrics suggest that the singer has complete faith in their loved one, and it is their unwavering belief that brings them joy and happiness.

Your hands are like a flame, your palms' the sweetest pain
This verse portrays the loved one's touch as something that is both comforting and painful, but ultimately brings immense pleasure and happiness.

Let the darkness lead us into the light
Rather than being afraid of the unknown, the lyrics suggest embracing the darkness to help find a way to rise above it and find the light.

Let our dreams get lost, feel the temperature rise
The lyrics suggest getting lost in one's dreams, even if it means getting caught up in the heat and passion of the moment.

Baby, tell me one more beautiful lie
This line may suggest a desire for something more than just the truth; the singer may seek a moment of comfort or flattery to make them feel content in the present moment.

One touch and I ignite
The touch of the loved one ignites a passion and renewed energy within the singer, and they feel alive and full of potential.

Like a starship speeding into the night
The comparison of their passion to a starship highlights the overwhelming nature of their connection as something that propels them with great speed and force.

You and I get lost in the infinite lights
The passion between the two is so intense that it feels like they are getting lost in the never-ending light and possibilities of their future together.

Diamonds are forever, but all we need is just tonight
The diamonds represent something everlasting, but the lyrics suggest that the singer is content with living in the present moment and enjoying the passing of a single night with their loved one.

We're monumental tremors that can freeze the speed of life
The singer portrays their connection as something that has the ability to pause the ceaseless energy of life and make everything else around them come to a standstill.

Just like particles that's falling from heaven all over the stars
The falling particles represent the moments of happiness and passion that are plentiful and infinite, just as the stars themselves are endless and abundant.

Hear you calling for me, hear you calling me home from afar
The singer feels a sense of belonging and comfort with their loved one, and being in their presence makes them feel like they are finally at home.

I feel the heat as we collide
This line highlights the physical and emotional connection between the singer and their loved one, with the collision between them causing a rush of heat and passion.

Like a fever that feels so right
The passionate connection between the two is so intense that it feels like a fever, and it feels like the most natural and right thing in the world.

So baby, tell me one more beautiful lie
Again, the singer seems to be seeking a moment of comfort or flattery to make them feel content in the present moment, even if it is a form of deception.
