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. 

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.
