Arcade Fire - My Body Is A Cage lyrics

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 the 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.

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.

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

Still turning in the night

But when I get to the doorway

There's no one in sight.

I'm living in an age,

Realizing I'm dancing

With the one I love,

But my mind holds the key.

You're still next to me,

My mind holds the key.

Set my spirit free.

Set my spirit free.

Set my body free.

Set my body free.

Woo!

Set my spirit free.

Set my body free.

Oh, oh. Oh, oh
