I Am Weightless
Septembre Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You mean the world to me
(and I am weightless)
Your heart is everything
(and I am useless)

If you only ask me kindly,
I will not come undone.
I'll go alone to find you.
I did not try to love you.
Because IοΏ½m sorry I am me.

What do you want me to be?
(I'm so ugly)
Please don't be angry with me
(I'm not complete)

If you confess,
I will depress,
I will not fuck with you.

I'll go alone to find you.
I did not try to love you.
Because I'm sorry I am me.





Easily, you are to me, I should have been around.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Septembre's song "I Am Weightless" speak to the singer's intense love for another person, who they view as the center of their world. The lines "You mean the world to me" and "Your heart is everything" express the depth of the singer's feelings, while the refrain "I am weightless" points to a sense of surrender and vulnerability in the face of this love.


However, the second verse takes a darker turn. The line "If you only ask me kindly, I will not come undone" suggests that the singer is struggling with their emotions and fears becoming overwhelmed. They express a desire to search for their love alone, and the lines "I did not try to love you" and "Because I'm sorry I am me" suggest a self-doubt and self-loathing that may be hindering their ability to fully commit to the relationship.


The final verse contains a plea for understanding - the singer acknowledges their own shortcomings and fears rejection, as expressed in the lines "What do you want me to be? / Please don't be angry with me." The assertion that "If you confess, I will depress, / I will not fuck with you" potentially speaks to an internal conflict between the singer's desire to be loved and fears of getting hurt or causing harm. The last line of the song, "Easily, you are to me, I should have been around," suggests that the singer regrets not being there sooner or more consistently for their love interest.


Overall, "I Am Weightless" is a rich and emotionally complex song that deals with themes of love, self-doubt, and vulnerability.
