Sixpence None the Richer
Thought Menagerie
Written by - Slocum
From - This Beautiful Mess
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 miniscule 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
i won't regret
