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 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
 
 My body is a cage
 That keeps me from dancing with the one I love

 Of fear and self-doubt
 It's a hollow play
