After she was signed to Epic Records and teamed up with Eric Rosse, the single was added to the track list for the album Little Voice. Gravity was written in the early 2000s. During this time there were worldy events misadventure which included George W. Bush being president, the major terrorist attack in new-made York, Ge orge Harrison died and the war in Iraq began (United States Timeline).These events probably didnt come much effect on Sara Bareilles reason for writing Gravity. Not much was found for her reasoning, but it was possibly based on past relationship that she has had, or a reflexion on either one or multiple relationships.AnalysisThe general theme of Gravity is how one can be drawn toward another(prenominal) person in their life, even if they dont want to. Sara Bareilles starts the song by Something unceasingly brings me back to you, It never takes too long, No matter what I govern or do, I still feel you here til the moment Im foregone (lines 1-4). Here she is saying that there is a force that is making her coming back to someone in subatomic time, and it doesnt matter what she does to agree this or go in a different direction because there is always a feeling that she has that wants to be near, lets say, this man that is drawing her near.The second verse is You support me wi thout touch, You keep me without chains, I never wanted anything so much, Than to drown in your love and not feel your rain (lines 5-8). When she says You hold me without touch, she is saying that she can feel him even though he is not there. You keep me without chains, representation that he can control her without him even trying to. The last two lines can be translated into that she has a strong feeling to want to be embraced in his love and not feel like she huckster have it. The reason for this is because when you are drowning, you are full covered in water, and when you are being rained on, you just get glimpse of water and youre not fully drenched in it.The let out of the song is Set me free, leave me be, I dont wanna fall another moment into your gravity, Here I am and I stand so tall, Im just the way Im supposed to be, But youre on to me and all over me (lines 9-13). When the song goes into the verse, it fronts that the song is switching gears a little bit. She wants to be set free from this force that she is feeling. She doesnt want to be pulled into him anymore. She wants to be her own person without him, but she feels it may be impossible to stop this force.The third verse is You loved me cause Im fragile, When I thought that I was strong, But you touch me for a little while, And all my fragile capacity is gone (lines 14-17). She is saying that she thought she was strong enough to not make a man in her life, but she was actually weak, and all the efficacy she thought she had went away when the man came into her life. After the third verse the chorus repeats.The hook is I live here on my knees, As I try to make you see, That youre everything I think I need, Here on the ground, But youre neither friend nor for, Though I cant seem to let you go, The one think that I still k now, Is that youre tutelage me down, Youre keeping me down (lines 18-26). This is the climax of the song. She is explaining that maybe she thinks she needs to have him in h er life. He is not a friend or an enemy, but she cant let him not be a part of her life, because he is what keeps her sane.This song goes through multiple ups and downs. The artist seems to not be sure what this man is to her in her life, but in the end she comes to the conclusion that he is what keeps her grounded.
