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
