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
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
That laughs
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

Arcade Fire My Body Is A Cage Comments
There's nothing I can say that a ton of other people haven't already said, but this is a great video.
Yeah that's exactly how I feel
@xheather360x!!! .. You gave this SOng A very deep meaningful Purpose.
JOKER , Joaquin Phoenix.. brought me here...
Wow. THIS IS SO phenomenally done.
Peter Gabriel brought me here...
The revenge you want will be yours, in time
This should be the official video for this song. It's godamn beautiful
MY MOM HOLDS THE KEY
I have yet to see a music video that touches this.
When eye hear this band eye hear god singing to me eye hear god singing?
99.9% Euphoria
0.1% Doctor House
Great film, great song, great video.
Man always knew it could be a western song.
This track should end at 3:34. Good song completely ruined.
Hi White Stripes
I wish the cropping wasn't so fucked
Sleepy Bones it’s an old movie also fullscreen to see it better
Had to find this movie and watch it after this video. Was amazing movie.
revenge ist the greatest motivator for all men.
I was here.
I was here too.
All the bright places.
This song is 100% what social anxiety is. And not the made up one by attention whoring idiots. The real one.
The best Band from my Hometown Montreal with the best movie ever made, a classic, the guy who made this video is a real genius :)
Page seven podcast brought me here
Is there a petition I can sign to make this the official video for this song? It’s beautiful
Perfeito!
Dark brought me here.
Osp. Wrong body, wrong cage. Sorry.
Chiara Bautista brought me here.. the artist
such a powerful song. i absolutely love this.
My body is a cage. And my mind holds the key.
I can relate.
'Just because you've forgotten that don't mean you're forgiven'
FUck I love this song.
I haven’t seen euphoria (yet) but I’m so glad the show is putting people on arcade fire and this movie
screw euphoria. i'm here because House did a cannonball.
editing on this is effin on point, congratuwelldone
nobody cares what brought you here, and even less care, if it is a tv show you find cool atm, stop spamming names of tv shows or animes or movies. Is that all that makes you interesting, having watched some shit. Just joking i dont care, do whatever you like fools.
Set my spirit freeeee...
Set my spirit free...
Set my body freeeeee...
Set my body free.
Oh ho ho...oho...
EUPHORIA 🌠
I'm sad the All I Need video isn't up anymore but at least we still have this one!
Welcome my brother...
To the esoteric
Whiplash was an excellent film, but the Harmonica instructor in this makes J.K. Simmons look like Mr. Rodgers in comparison.
**has an abortion to this song**
They're like a fine wine.... Just get better with time.
Cassie?
Blows my mind that videos I loved and watched the fuck out of when I was a cool hip teenager are still up 12 years later
Sic Mundus Creatus Est
Sounds so much like Bono
Funny thing is that Euphoria fans are commenting on this video. Because the video itself is from a movie where an era of completely different values is shown. Furthermore most of these values are the opposites of values shown in the TV show (some values from westerns could today also be considered toxic by the viewers of that show). I dunno, I'm not the exact target audience for Euphoria but I'm still only a little bit older and I think Euphoria is trying way too hard to be out there. I think my generation had better shows to watch as teens.
Makes me think of Stephen Hawking.
guys please! this beat in the beginning remind me something i can’t remember. I could hear similar sample in the another track
Probably the best fitting song, for the finale of the man with the harmonica In Sergio Leone's masterpiece once upon a time in the west. I showed my friend this video 8 years ago. He didn't even know it was from a movie. It was funny, because he named his dog Bronson, not after the actor but the movie called Bronson.
It's this video that makes me love this song 100x fold. It brings so much depth. I would die if this video was removed.
Dark brought me here... Last episode of season 2.🥺
Same here!!!!! You and I collided!
I listen this sound since 2005...I forgot it since a couple of years and to listen it makes me cry
It represent à bad episod of my life
Justyna Święs brought me here.
Who is here due to dark?
That Cassie scene in the finale will stick with me for a very long time.
I love Arcade Fire but ALSO Euphoria
Euphoria❤
The fucking PETER GABRIEL bring me here
If Euphoria brought you here, shame on you for not loving this song longer.
It seems that all my favorite older songs keep appearing on new shows and it’s weirding me out.
Euphoria!!!
love rules #feeleuphoria 💔❤💕💘💓💛💚💙💜
Euphoria brought me here
Europhoria's troops have arrived.
Yo Euphoria's soundtrack is really fire
"I'm livin' in age that calls darkness light"
Ain't that the truth.
To be fair, it's a pretty generic statement that could work with anyone anywhere at anytime.
@Laura Schlieselhuber
It's a part of the human experience. The age referred to is actually all ages. We have always and always will be the same. We're the same creatures.
Euphoria 💜 Bam
Here from Euphoria can't wait for season two!

I forgot this was in Dark. Do you remember which episode?
@David Adams 2x8
David Adams In the final of season 2 when the Central explose
No disrespect but the Peter Gabriel cover slaps
The fact this song played on the series Dark (the last episode) gave me SO MUCH CHILLS I CAN'T EXPLAIN, it fit so perfectly i just loveeee this song
Wish they played the original Arcade Fire version
Scott K they needed the orchestral build up of Peter Gabriel's version that mirrored the orchestral Teho Teardo's A Quite Life of the first season finale.
DARK brought me here.
Dark😎😍
hahaha Babylon, get it
that scene of hanging guy is perfectly heartbreaking i love it
This song is about my body which is a cage, right my life)
So... Who is there because they heard Peter Gabriel's version used in DARK is Arcade's Fire cover ;)?
Who is here after the apocalypse?
Eric Liu sic mvndvs prolly
Like si venis por Dark :'(
Dark, anyone?
M. José yes
Desde Argentina
I joined YouTube just to comment on this video. I stumbled across Peter Gabriel's cover version of this song a few days ago and had to find the original. I found myself here, knowing nothing about Arcade Fire, Sergio Leone, Westerns, nothing. Now I know a lot!
All I can say is whoever made this video doesn't have to do anything further to justify their existence on the planet. It is a sublime stroke of unadulterated perfection.
This is not just a song, it's some type of Transmission. I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO IT! Does anyone else have this experience?? Help!
The song of Stephen Hawking.
That's me! I actually have a health issue that makes ALL women refuse to date me. :) And that's that, my body really IS a cage. :)
BRAVO!! That’s was an awesome mash up! You should do more.
Are u the real guy? You should be a film director.
Man being sick makes this song hit me hard.
La canción que da el nombre a la autobiografía del difunto cinéfilo Andrés Caicedo
My body is a cage,
That keeps me from dancing from the one I love
But my mind holds the key
My body is a cage,
That keeps me from dancing with the one 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 clap anyway
My body is a cage,
That keeps me from dancing with the one so 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 moves 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 cage, we take what we’re given
Just because you’ve forgotten doesn’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, that laughs 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
You got several lines wrong, but go off I guess
