Non Conformis - Martyr

[musique: daniel mongrain]
[paroles: françois mongrain]

[le système et ses normes, les religions, la politique et leurs dirigeants, les regroupements en puissance imposent leurs critères pour faire de nous de bons "citoyens modèles". les gens se font manipuler à leur insu, puis quand la vérité voit le jour, il est souvent trop tard pour réagir. hélas, il n'y a pas de place dans cette société pour ceux qui ne se conforment pas.]

[dm-] you lacerate my heart
restrain my actions
deviate my mind
twist my soul
wreck my schemes
delude my hopes
steal my freedom
usurp my life

you stain my honor
confuse my faith
bribe my principle
enslave my pride
infect my blood
pollute my lungs
contaminate my flesh
garbage my life

[fm-] severing my ties with this society
will impel me to break conformity
don`t wanna throw away my security
but not many choices are given to me

all your circumlocutions
just prove how low is your sincerity
you fumble within your own lies
time to give cameras a sickly smile

the education system you imposed on us
is but a way to hide your true intentions
with an automaton-like way of thinking
revolts are out of the question

blind toward this ignominy
society repudiates me
if silence is golden as it is told
behind the steelbars so i`ll be thrown

[lead: françois mongrain]

[dm-] i read your tracts
follow your laws
swallow your speaches
waste my time
work for nothing
pay twice for everything
i failed my life

[lead: daniel mongrain]

[dm/fm-] wash my brain ( wash my brain)
watch i`m brained (watch i`m brained)
what? mind drained (what? mind drained)
watt my brain (watt my brain)
wash my brain ( wash my brain)
watch i`m brained (watch i`m brained)

[fm-] worship this factice justice
and you`ll become a slave of it
i wanna be "non conformis"
[fm+dm-] non conformis
