Attraction
Provision Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Clouding the mind, intent on disguise. Saying love is blind.
And truth is stranger than fiction. Bound by design.
Now a slave to decision.
It only takes a fraction, to notice. I’m no longer the focus.
We’re losing attraction. With movements failing, trusting intuition.
Instead of making decisions. To end this, Attraction.
Desire consumes all control, within this instance.
When lust feels like a gun to the head, I keep my distance.
For how much longer, shall we remain? It’s becoming a game.
Immune to resistance.
The lyrics in Provision's song Attraction speak about a relationship that has lost its spark and passion. The passage of time has caused the two individuals in love to forget the beginning of their relationship and now they seem to be blaming each other for its deterioration. The singer criticizes how people often complain about their partners without taking responsibility for their role in the relationship's failure.
The lyricist observes that love is often misconstrued as a force that blinds people from the truth. However, in reality, the truth is stranger than fiction, and love does not always stand the test of time. The singer has become a slave to decisions that need to be made to save the relationship. The words "it only takes a fraction to notice" suggests that the couple has reached a point where they no longer see the best in each other, which has led to a loss of attraction.
The song highlights how challenging it is for couples to maintain the spark in their relationships. The line "Desire consumes all control within this instance" emphasizes the powerful grip love has over people's judgment. The overarching message is to trust one's intuition and make decisions to end attraction instead of dragging on a relationship that will eventually die out.
