Index lyrics - Steven Wilson song

I'm a collector I'll collect anything I find
I never throw away anything anyway it's mine
And I'd collect you too if I was given half the chance
And trap you under the glass and add my autograph

I catalog, I preserve, and I index
And file you into my collectable rolodex
I keep me rubbish while all the people give away
And keep all of the pieces in a metal tray

I'm a collector and I've always been misunderstood
I like the things the people seem to always overlook
I gather up and catalog it in a book I wrote
There's so much now there I forget if how to make a note

If I collected you and put you in a little cage
I could take you out and study you everyday
It isn't easy being me it's kind of lonely work
My obligation to collecting is my only thirst
