"Wanting more is gonna bring me to my knees." Or maybe he's talking about the whole taste of honey cliche in response to someone's affect on him. But the lyrics in the first stanza suggest drug use. Somebody throws their life away, trying to stay where gravity won't allow him- high. But to me I think it describes the way I feel right now. In love with the most perfect woman and although I try to be optimistic, the rational side, gravity, "is trying to bring me down" Gravity is ambiguous, it could be that gravity is just the human nature of dissatisfaction. “Wanting more is gonna bring me to my knees.” Or maybe he’s talking about the whole taste of honey cliche in response to someone’s affect on him.

Not sure about it being the "little sister" of Vultures though, I'll have to check that out. John Mayer has called this song "the most important song I've ever written". Post on that coming soon.

I've never seen John perform like this. "Gravity" is the little sister to "Vultures"--both come from the same parent, but one is older and wiser than the other. Where did this video come from?

“Gravity” is the little sister to “Vultures”–both come from the same parent, but one is older and wiser than the other.
