About Write on Me

"Write on Me" is a song by American girl group Fifth Harmony from their sophomore studio album, 7/27 (2016). It was released as the album's second promotional single on May 5, 2016 on iTunes and other digital and streaming services. The song was written by duo Mikkel Eriksen and Tor Erik Hermansen of Stargate, Kygo, Priscilla Renea, and Simon Wilcox, with production handled by Eriksen, Hermansen, and Kygo. It is a mid-tempo, tropical house number that uses synths, tambourines, an acoustic guitar, and finger-snaps as its instrumentation. Critics noted that it had a slower melody from the group's previous songs. Lyrically, the song uses the human body as a metaphor to tell a lover to expose their strengths, flaws, and truths. Inspired by the lack of ballads on their previous records, the group wanted to create more variety and a different atmosphere that their public have not heard before. "Write on Me" was the last promotional single before the group released their album. Upon availability, the song charted in Czech Republic and Scotland. As part of the track's promotion, the group performed the song for the first time at Wango Tango, two weeks before the album's release. It was subsequently included in The 7/27 Tour.

Pick up the pen, put it on the paper
Write on my skin, bring me to life
Can't start again, there ain't no eraser
All of my flaws, you got them so right

Everything is blank until you draw me
Touching on my body like you know me

Write on me
Color outside the lines
Love the way you tear me up
Baby take your time
Write on me
Give me some wings, I'll fly
Love the way you tear me up
I'll never change my mind
Write on me, write on me
Write on me, write on me
(Write on me)
Write on me (write on me)
Write on me
Love the way you tear me up
Write on me

You are my friend, straight and no chaser
Burns going down but it keeps me alive
Tell me the truth, I like the danger
'Cause in the end you will be mine

Everything is gray until you draw me
Touching on my body like you know me

Write on me
Color outside the lines
Love the way you tear me up
Baby take your time
Write on me
Give me some wings, I'll fly
Love the way you tear me up
I'll never change my mind
Write on me, write on me
Write on me, write on me

I could see a city sleep
I could see an ocean wave
Everything is changing and it's written on my face
I could see a city sleep
I could see an ocean wave
Everything is changing and it's written on my face

Write on me
Color outside the lines
Love the way you tear me up
Baby take your time
Write on me
Give me some wings, I'll fly
Love the way you tear me up
I'll never change my mind
(Write on me) (Write on me)
Write on me, (Write on me)
Write on me, (Write on me)
Write on me (write on me)
Write on me, (write on me)
(Won't you write on me yeah)
(Write on me)
Love the way you tear me up
Write on me

Write on me
Write on me
Write on me
