Arcade Fire lyrics - My Body is A Cage

album: Neon Bible (2007)
genre:

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 hold 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 from moving, 
still me hearts 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. 

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. 

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