Allure
Fifth Dawn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My walls are gone
You make me whole again
Far from what we understand
Don't wake me up
My walls are gone
Got this feeling I can′t hold up now
Got this feeling I can't hold up now
The waves are slow
Over my head
It shows all that we are
Seeing me, feel it need again
I'm not afraid of what we are
I′m not afraid to feel the crush of me
Until it dies over the waves will rein
Towering over you
Don′t wake me up
My walls are gone
You make me whole again
Far from what we understand
Don't wake me up
My walls are gone
Got this feeling I can′t hold up now
Got this feeling I can't hold up now
Hold up now
Here we stay
Until the day that I decide to leave
I followed my instincts
They led me softly
To a world where everything in my mind
Seems so hard
I′m not afraid of what we are
I'm not afraid to feel the crush of me
Until it dies over the waves will rein
Towering over you
Don′t wake me up
My walls are gone
You make me whole again
Far from what we understand
Don't wake me up
My walls are gone
Got this feeling I can't hold up now
Got this feeling I can′t hold up now
Hold up now
They make me crumble on my knees
The waves look what its done to me
I can′t escape what's over
(Don′t wake me up)
They make me crumble on my knees
The waves look what its done to me
They will allure
Feed the fire of our hearts within
Feed the fire of our hearts within
It's the fire
Your desire of the world you seek below
Don′t wake me up
My walls are gone
You make me whole again
Far from what we understand
Don't wake me up
My walls are gone
Got this feeling I can′t hold up now
Got this feeling I can't hold up now
Hold up now
Feed the fire of our hearts within
Feed the fire of our hearts within
It's the fire
Your desire of the world you seek
Woah
The lyrics of Fifth Dawn's "Allure" express a sense of longing for a deeper connection with someone. The singer is submerged in the waves, surrounded by the unknown, and with their walls down, they feel vulnerable but also complete. They don't want to be awoken from this dreamlike state where they feel whole again. They are not afraid of what they are feeling, of the crush that comes with it, and are willing to let it consume them until it dies over the waves that tower over them. The line "They will allure" repeats twice towards the end of the song, suggesting that the waves or the unknown force pulling them under are not something to be feared but rather something that is alluring.
The song's chorus has a hypnotic quality, with repeating lines creating a dreamlike atmosphere. The singer feels lost but not necessarily in a negative way, as if being swept away by this force is exactly what they need. The bridge expresses a feeling of surrender to one's instincts, even if it means entering a world that may seem hard to comprehend. The lyrics "Feed the fire of our hearts within" suggest that the singer is seeking a deeper emotional connection and maybe even a deeper understanding of oneself.

Don't wake me up
I am in a dreamlike state and do not want to be interrupted
My walls are gone
I am vulnerable and open to the world
You make me whole again
You give me a sense of completeness
Far from what we understand
We are experiencing something beyond our comprehension
Got this feeling I can't hold up now
I am overwhelmed and unsure how to handle my emotions
Hold up now
Please wait, I need time to process
The waves are slow
The world around me is moving at a calm pace
Over my head
But I am still struggling to stay afloat
It shows all that we are
This situation reveals our true selves
Seeing me, feel it need again
By witnessing me, you are reminded of your own desires
I'm not afraid of what we are
I am willing to embrace the unknown
I'm not afraid to feel the crush of me
I am unafraid of being overwhelmed by my own emotions
Until it dies over the waves will rein
This feeling will persist until it eventually fades away
Towering over you
The waves are a powerful force that can control us
Here we stay
We are content to remain in this place
Until the day that I decide to leave
But eventually, I may choose to move on
I followed my instincts
I relied on my intuition to guide me here
They led me softly
My instincts gently nudged me in the right direction
To a world where everything in my mind
In this place, the chaos of my inner thoughts is quieted
Seems so hard
This journey has not been easy, but it has been worth it
They make me crumble on my knees
The power of my emotions is overwhelming
The waves look what its done to me
I am physically affected by the force of my emotions
I can't escape what's over
I am trapped in the grip of my feelings
(Don't wake me up)
Please do not disrupt this experience
They will allure
My emotions will continue to pull me in
Feed the fire of our hearts within
We must nourish our passion and love
It's the fire
Our passion burns bright like a flame
Your desire of the world you seek below
You have a lust for life and a longing for what lies beneath the surface
Woah
An exclamation of awe or excitement

@DeadDefy
Thanks to Spotify, i've found a new band, her voice is gorgeous!
@sn0wflowxrisbored937
Same!
@RocketSw0rd
Me too! Initially heard this album's "Instinct" song and recently started listening to the rest of the album. Fun fact: Since the Spotify BIO on the band mentioned something about them gaining a lot of followers during COVID (and I hadn't looked up the lyrics until today), all I hear at 0:22 is "got this feeling again on lock-down".
@dannymac6785
It never gets old, the feeling of falling in love with a new band. This entire album and your EP, just incredible stuff, so glad I found you... never stop making music!
