Arcade Fire – My Body Is a Cage Lyrics 15 years ago
The way I see it, which could be way off but hey it's the only thing I can think about when I hear it, but it could be about someone with an eating disorder. People with eating disorders can sometimes feel "caged in" by their bodies, and know that they have the power to change it but won't. And it can also play a role in relationships. Heck it controls every aspect of the person's life. So they may want to be open and trusting with someone but they are held back by the disorder. They also can have a strong sense of fear, especially of their own bodies and of how others will view them "I'm standing on a stage of fear and self doubt, it's a hollow play but they'll clap anyway".

M.I.A. – Steppin' Up Lyrics 15 years ago
I love the correlation of the tool sounds in the background and her line "I'm tooled up like a thug" as well as her robotic sound in this song.

M.I.A. – Believer Lyrics 15 years ago
"I really would like to see a star shine
but the light getting covered up with hard times"

"If you're from the front line then you wanna survive"
