Arcade Fire:My Body Is A Cage

My body is a cage
that keeps me from dancing
with the one I love,
but my mind holds the key.

My body is a cage
that keeps me from dancing
with the one I love,
but my mind holds the key.

I'm standing on a stage
of fear and self-doubt.
It's a hollow play,
but they'll clap anyway.

My body is a cage
that keeps me from dancing
with the one I love,
but my mind holds the key.

You're standing next to me.
My mind holds the key.

I'm living in an age
that calls darkness light.
Though my language is dead,
still the shapes fill my head.

I'm living in an age
whose name I don't know.
Though the fear keeps me moving,
still my heart beats so slow.

My body is a cage
that keeps me from dancing
with the one I love,
but my mind holds the key.

You're standing next to me.
My mind holds the key.
My body is a...

My body is a cage.
We take what we're given.
Just because you've forgotten,
that don't mean you're forgiven.

I'm living in an age
that screams my name at night,
But when I get to the doorway
there's no one in sight.

I'm living in an age:
They laugh when I'm dancing
With the one I love
But my mind holds the key.

You're standing next to me.
My mind holds the key.

Set my spirit free.
Set my spirit free.
Set my body free.
Set my body free.

Set my spirit free.
Set my body free.
