This was the night I first witnessed the TikTok that started it all...and by started it all, I mean prompted me to start writing what would eventually become "Weightless".
It was a video about "you know you're an adult when you think about..." and I don't even remember anything else about the video, except that one of the video clips on which they showed one of those pesky adult thoughts was just a short clip of the guy laying on the floor, probably contemplating life. And I remember immediately stopping and getting up to write because I thought "I lay on the floor too! I wonder if I could write a song about it". And the rest is history!
I wrote this first verse right away, before I even knew what the song would be about or what the chorus might be. Back when it had no title; just a vibe. I thought: "what prompts me to lay on the floor?" And I honestly had no idea. But I knew I spent a lot of time laying in bed staring at walls, just thinking, so I figured I would start there and see if it took me to the floor (figuratively speaking).
