Martyr Hopeless Hopes Lyrics

[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.]

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 fulfill 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

[Lead: Daniel Mongrain]
