Hopeless Hopes

(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

(Lead: Daniel Mongrain)
