I Missed the Plane

[Verse 1]

All my life, I've been searching for the right thing to say

And that's a long time to search for the right words

And I watch their faces change expressions as they're talking at me

They're so quick to repeat what they've heard

[Chorus]

I miss the meaning, I miss the pain

I missed the meeting, I missed the plane (Run, run, run, run)

I missed the plane

[Verse 2]

And I'll look back on my life and see it all so clearly

Every wrong that I done and everyone that I've wronged

And in the hour of my darkness, having all this regret

Well, doesn't that just sound so appealing?

[Chorus]

I miss the meaning, I miss the pain

I missed the meeting, I missed the plane (Run, run, run, run)

I missed the plane

Ooh, I missed the plane

[Refrain]

I used to need, I used to want

I use the weed, I used to not

I used to be the one you want

I used to breathe all on my own

[Verse 3]

Spent my life looking down until there was no life left

Then I looked up to find no one with me

My only friend now is a fly buzzing 'round in my room

And isn't this just the perfect ending?

[Chorus]

I miss the meaning, I miss the pain

I missed the meeting, I missed the plane

Your love is a needle and you hit a vein

It flows in my blood and goes straight to my brain

I missed the plane

I missed the plane

Ooh, I missed the plane

[Refrain]

I used to need, I used to want

I use the weed, I used to not

I used to be the one you want

I used to breathe all on my own

[Outro]

My only friend now is a fly

(I used to be the only one)
