Background and development

A pop ballad, "5:15" exhibits elements of soul, pop and jazz.[2] Built on a piano, multi-tracked sensitive harmonies, the song's instrumentation includes slow-bouncing violin tones, bass guitar, cello, guitars and piano. Lyrically, the song is about a girl who knows she keeps giving chances to the guy and is constantly having to push him into wanting to be with her. She decides to give him one last chance, and if he blows that one too she wants to walk away from the relationship. But she knows that she might end up giving him yet another chance because she really wants to be with him.[5] The song is a guitar-driven soul over a lightly strummed guitar, before a skittering backbeat.[6]

Reception

He also commented "Enchants the listener from when the beat kicks in. Mendler delivers her lines in a spooky fashion. This song would sound great on a soundtrack to some type of film".[8] Kai of the magazine Embrace You commented that the instruments essences are all carefully composed to convey her emotions, and the song is lovely, sweet and an exceptional number. He also said that "Bridgit's voice is as sweet as honey; her vocals complement the passion filled words perfectly. I can't stress enough on how good these songs are written".[9] Xinhau of Spin or Bin Music was positive and commented that "5:15" is a really cute song.[10]

Abhijith Asok of Music Perk said the song is good to be heard anywhere and that simplicity is the great element to love it. He also commented: "Mendler has sung it beautifully enough. Her easy movement through the song is clear from the progress of the track. She has given the right stress at the right time with her voice, to eliminate any chance of that occurring".[11] Guilherme Tintel to It Pop compared the instrumental song to "Mad About You" of Hooverphonic and said the song is really sad and it is very good.[3] Hailey Sager of Musiq Tone said that Mendler has an amazing voice and "anyone with a traveling for work lifestyle" will love the song.[12]
