Sixpence None The Richer
"Thought Menagerie"

Music & Lyrics by : Matt Slocum

I only want what's mine 
that's what I came to find 
a little respect that's all 
from you 

because one has his natural right 
but somehow that doesn't seem right 
not when I look at myself 

I was taken on a trip to see 
a minuscule menagerie in my soul 
where all the thoughts have escaped the cage 
and vamp across the spiritual plain 

it's like I said before 
I've got the right to ignore 
the ruin in my self 
if it involves change 

and so I lay it down 
put my humanistic crown 
on the shelf 

I think I've changed my mind 
I'd rather seek than find 
the sorrow from you
