My Body Is a Cage

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

Why do you act like you don't know
what in the world I'm talking about?

Bunny in a Bunny Suit

Pretending to be myself again

acting as if I was who I am

wearing the clothes that I always wear

and doing the usual thing to my hair


Pretending to be myself again

imitating the person I've always been

legally changing my name to my name

and making believe I'm exactly the same


A bunny in a bunny suit

tiger in a tiger mask

who in the world do you think that I am

I suppose it depends on who you ask


Of all the disguises I've ever worn

I flatter myself in the most sincere form

still I'm kept at a distance by friends

for just pretending to be myself again


A bunny in a bunny suit

vampire with plastic teeth

who in the world do I think that I am

I guess it depends on who I believe
