Something's missing...
Here lately, I can't get "Something's Missing" by John Mayer out of my head. It's just how I feel; "And I don't know what it is."
Anyway, this was an outro from a show that ellablue2 on MSM transcribed:

Something's Missing outro from March 26, 2004:
"...something’s missing and I don’t know how I’m ever gonna fix it, something’s always missing and I don’t know how I’m ever gonna change. The man you see before you is only held together by promises and a lot of scotch tape. I’m gonna change, oh I know I’ve gotta change, change. I‘m a ? in a chapter book and I know all it’s gonna take is one look to change it, change it all.
I’m just a boy with a broken phone, too many messages that I wrote, not enough bottles to sail them all. Got a broken mast, reading messages past, I play games with the stars in my free time. Singing someday, someone’s gonna save me, though I don’t know who it is, no I don’t know who it is.
Someone asked me last night, they said, 'How is your love life?' I said 'poor to fair.' I’m not sad, I’m just alone, that’s not lonely, it’s just...I don’t really have to use the phone.
It’s gonna be fine, but you know. You know how you find yourself at the end of something hanging around at the end, like a vacation that you go on with 8 other friends, they all left and you’re the last person to catch your flight. It’s kind of what it feels like.
I’m gonna get wrapped up, I can tell. Someone is gonna screw my life up COMPLETELY. Let me tell you something, it’s wonderful to have your life screwed up by someone who’s not even right for you, it’s beautiful. Your friends are just supposed to watch it happen and not do anything. It would be lovely to be messed up.
I’ll tell you something. Every time you walk by a beautiful man or a beautiful woman, you tell yourself, god, that could have been the most wonderful thing in the world I just walked past. But never do you tell yourself, and probably in some cases fairly, say to yourself, that person would have FUCKED ME UP FOR A YEAR AND A HALF. That’s what’s missing. That’s what’s missing. (singing): Misery, misery, that’s what's missing -- misery, misery…
