PETER GABRIEL - My Body Is A Cage lyrics
rate me<span class="feat">(originally by Arcade Fire)</span><br>
<br>
My body is a cage<br />
That keeps me from dancing with the one I love<br />
But my mind holds the key<br />
<br />
My body is a cage<br />
That keeps me from dancing with the one I love<br />
But my mind holds the key<br />
<br />
I'm standing on a stage<br />
Of fear and self doubt<br />
It's a hollow play<br />
But they'll clap anyway<br />
<br />
My body is a cage<br />
That keeps me from dancing with the one I love<br />
But my mind holds the key<br />
<br />
You're standing next to me<br />
My mind holds the key<br />
<br />
I'm living in an age<br />
That calls darkness light<br />
Though my language is dead<br />
Still the shapes fill my head<br />
<br />
I'm living in an age<br />
Whose name I don't know<br />
Though the fear keeps me moving<br />
Still my heart beats so slow<br />
<br />
My body is a cage<br />
That keeps me from dancing with the one I love<br />
But my mind holds the key<br />
<br />
You're standing next to me<br />
My mind holds the key<br />
My body is a...<br />
<br />
My body is a cage<br />
We take what we're given<br />
Just because you've forgotten<br />
That don't mean you're forgiven<br />
<br />
I'm living in an age<br />
That screams my name at night<br />
But when I get to the doorway<br />
There's no one in sight<br />
<br />
I'm living in an age<br />
They laugh when I'm dancing with the one I love<br />
But my mind holds the key<br />
<br />
You're standing next to me<br />
My mind holds the key<br />
<br />
Set my spirit free<br />
Set my spirit free<br />
Set my body free<br />
Set my body free<br />
<br />
Set my spirit free<br />
Set my body free
<br><br><br><br>
<br>
