She said it was alright When a moment ago I told her I didn’t love her anymore
She said it was alright When a lifetime ago I told her I couldn’t live up to her dreams
She said it was alright When I got down to my knees To give her an ordinary ring Because I couldn’t afford anything else
She said it was alright To any and everything I had ever dared confess
She said it was alright Because deep inside of her Was a love for me, almost endless
It’s true, i could have tried harder To please her, to love her To appease her, to deserve her
But i didn’t, and i’ll tell you why Many a night, i’d seen her cry Alone and depressed Confined and distressed In the familial laws and rules that bind That told her not to speak her mind That crush her worse than i ever could If only, she understood
All i wanted to do was to make her say It’s not alright and slap my face Take a knife and stab my heart For pulling all her dreams apart But she never said a thing Bound by all those invisible strings
Perhaps it’s time to end this game And save her before she goes insane Save her from this world that binds her Save her from the veil that blinds her It won’t be easy but i’ll do my best Take off her shackles and give her some rest
But she is one from millions in the world I’ll save one from her prison But what about the rest? What about the millions that we blessed With an eternal veil? You won’t answer that Neither will I After all, who wants to give up a servant For whom, everything is alright….
