Playing Rapunzel Mina's Song Lyrics

[Vocals: Marilisa Valtazanou]

[Verse 1:]
They tell me I am all right now
They tell me I can go out in the sun
They tell me the mark is gone from my brow
They tell me the battle is won

[Verse 2:]
So why do I feel betrayed and alone
When I lie with my husband at night?
Why am I no longer happy
Just being all right?

[Verse 1:]
They tell me I am all right now
They tell me I have beaten the curse
They tell me that I was enslaved to the devil
In danger of death, or far worse

[Verse 2:]
So why do I long for the keenness of senses
Made dull by the sun's cruel light?
Why can I not be content
To be merely all right?

[Bridge:]
Two old foreign men have fought over me
To the death, and the older man lost
And now I am saved, and with every breath I count the unbearable cost
For a moment I've seen what my life could have been
But I'll never know freedom again
Just nightmare unending of wise, condescending
Complacent, contemptible men...!

[Verse 1:]
They tell me that he was a demon
They tell me he killed men for play
But I saw the sadness and pain in his eyes
That only true death washed away

[Verse 2:]
That other man talked about "souls now at peace"
But he only lived for the fight
And now there is nothing to be
Except simply "all right"

[Verse 2/Outro:]
I could have been ageless, immortal and fair
And joined my dark prince in his flight
But now he is dead, and I
I am simply "all right"
Condemned to a short, bitter lifetime
Of being "all right"...
