Hopeless Hopes - Martyr

[musique: daniel mongrain & pier-luc lampron]
[paroles: françois mongrain]

[espérer peut faire très mal, surtout face à des illusions. Échec après échec, l'on se réfugie dans la réclusion et le mépris. toutefois, la vie sans désir ne peut pas valoir la peine d'être vécue.]

[dm-] nothing ever compared to
the pain delivered by hope
this reassuring derision
to believe in illusions

abstraction of all desires
that is the way to suicide
in a world nourished by lies
no one can fulfil his life

failure after failure
more than the heart can endure,
life becomes a slow torture
until the grand departure

aging faster than time passes,
don't implore to start over
wishes rarely ever come true
when youth grows old too fast

[lead: pier-luc lampron]

failure after failure
until the grand departure
failure after failure
until the grand departure
