Something's Missing

I am a huge John Mayer fan. His songwriting is some of the freshest stuff to come around in a long long time. Unfortunately, I am usually not a guy that focuses on lyrics, but pays more attentions to groove and melody. This morning on my run, for the first time I paid attention to the lyrics to John's song "Something's Missing". There is probably no better song that aptly decribes the exsistential angst of someone who has it all by society's standards but still feels empty and alone. I would like to commend John for his honesty. This song makes me very thankful for the gospel. Here are the lyrics:

I'm not alone
I wish I was
Cause then I'd know I was down because
I couldn't find a friend around
To love me like they do right now
They do right now

I'm dizzy from the shopping mall
I searched for the joy but i bought it all
It doesn't help the hunger pain
And a thirst I'd have to drown first to ever satiate

Something's missing
And I dont know how to fix it
Something's missing
And I dont know what it is
At all

When autumn comes
It doesn't ask
It just walks in where it left you last
You never know when it starts
Until there is fog inside the glass around
Your summer heart

Something's missing
And I dont know hot to fix it
Somethings missing
And I dont know what it is
At all

I cant be sure that this state of mind
Is not of my own design
I wish there was an over the counter test
for lonliness like this

Something's missing
And I dont know what it is
Something's missing
And I dont know what it is
No I dont know what it is
Somethings different
And I dont know what it is
No I dont know what it is.
