Attention, Phillip Phillips fans! All week long on PopCrush we're going to be rolling out exclusive behind-the-scenes content from Phillip's 'Behind the Light' album. First up? Watch Phillip reveal the story behind writing his emotional song 'Trigger.'

"I wrote the guitar riff right before I went on stage last summer," he explains about the intense track. "It just kind of turned into this really dark song."

Though Phillip explains that the events in the song aren't autobiographical or based on anyone he knows, he reveals that he likes to "put myself in those positions" of getting into the mindset of others.

"If I was somebody that was going through something like that, it's pretty powerful," he explains about the tune.
