[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".

"Are you aware of your existence?
And of the reason for it?"
Tear me out of this
Forever lost world
Between time and space
Tear me out of these
Realms where life's
Eternal for those
Who seize it
Surrounded by lost souls
Paralyzed existence
For those whose
Life is a failure
Who are a failure to life
Endless vortex
Towards erasing destiny
Endless vortex
Erasing my destiny
The flame died away
Where am I here and now?
Why was I not
And never will?

"A deep introspection might be required ..."
Acid rain can't dissolve
The stains which were left by the flood of tears
Foaming sea of rage can't erode
This heart of stone frozen by fear
Frail skiff !
Without a course already traced
Drowning with haste !
Frail skiff without a crew
Sinking to my rescue !
Lighthouses can't be seen
Fog-horns can't be heard
Deserted waters
By the tiny frail skiff
Diving at its own risk
Deserted waters
Leaving the anchor behind
Adrift goes my mind
Deserted waters
Scattered slowly, agonizing
Time kills time
The skiff ran onto
The reef of my memory
Hoisting the yellow flag
I stem the tide of my past
In this imminent wreckage
I despair for salvation
Am I destined to an unconscious scuttling ?
My soul now a soaked up desert land
[Lead: Pier-Luc Lampron]

"Don't waste what little time you have
been granted on complaints.
And live your life to the fullest."
The past trespasses
When now settles in
Ephemeral experiences
Fleeting memories
Sacrificing a part of your life
Hungry packs of illusions
No one will grieve or shed a tear
For stolen destinies
Forsaken
Regrets are your life's bitter legacy
Carpe Diem
Your life is yours to create
Carpe Diem
So leave the past behind
[Lead: Pier-Luc Lampron]

Hope for a second chance
Forever haunting you
Time beyond reclaim
Wasted in the past
Living beside your virtual life

Another Utopia's rising
The future is recovering
From its passed fall from grace

Don't leave

"Drown deep into your soul..."
Suffering screams fading away
Buried are the scars of agony
Forgotten decades of drying tears
Still, I'm unceasingly dying
Under the staring eyes of the outraged
I leave for a higher level of existence
Hope for a translucid conscience
Obsesses my ignorance
No more demons to exorcise
Never will they materialize
There's just one wish that I implore for
But I can't afford it anymore.
I loathe your realm of glory and fame
In a world so restrained, life's a pity
I leave this world without regrets
Without the pain, I should forget

"Virtual emotions, masquerades and manipulations."
You think you're sophisticated
You're only scratching my surface
You can barely reach the bottom
Which is the highest you can go
You think you can manipulate me
That's what I want you to believe
Those emotions which you think are yours
Are born from your imagination
What you feel is not real
Virtual emotions
What you feel isn't real
Virtual emotions
Suffering makes me live
I want to feel the pain
Pulsating through the deepest part of me
For as long as it takes
These wounds without scars
Which you inflict upon me
Only feed me, your nemesis
[Lead: Daniel Mongrain]
The world you have created
The roles which you play
Make me believe they're much too real
They seem much too real
Your whole life is but an illusion
Don't try to blame anyone at all
This great illusion you dare call life
Will disappear with you
You will realize your monumental mistake
But it will be too late
[Music: Daniel Mongrain]
[Lyrics: Francois Mongrain (Collaboration: Daniel Mongrain)]
"Which truth did you expect to hear?
The truth, I just told you...
Don't ask if you don't want to know."
In the fountain of youth you will drown
Envy will make you sink like a stone
Damned temptations to remain on a throne
Belong to those who are forever gone
It's all just a question of perception
And questions don't always yield solutions
Stop asking how, when, where and why
For the answer will never come
You think you'll survive? Do you realize ?
You won't come out alive. Rise above the skies
And then you will dive. Won't you die, so I can too?
You won't live to see the day
When you know it all
No matter how old you are
[Lead: Daniel Mongrain]
Tell me why? Tell me how?
Tell me, oh please tell me...
Tell me lies
So you wanted lies. Look into my eyes
I will make you cry. You don't realize
Follow my advice. You will not survive
Let go of me!
Eternity's too long for me
No matter how far you explore
The universe, you'll never find more
And you could pray your life away

No one seems to hear you anyway

You let your flaws dictate your laws
Sentencing is your role corrupted is your soul
No one to blame, you played the game
Don't come to claim the souls you stained

Can never replace what was
Taken from you
We know the truth but we
Still hate you
We're the one's who chose to deny
In life nothing but lies
We know you're dying inside
Bleeding wounds, still we pass you by
Now on my knees and I don't please
Don't punish me for those who
Made you bleed
Did you not know they cannot see
Without you we could never be
We're the ones who chose to deny
In life nothing but lies
We know you're dying inside
Bleeding wounds, still we pass you by
Nothing but lies,
We put the tear in your eye
Feeding you nothing but lies
Below the surface of your skin
Criticize - the ones before you
Immortalize - the men with the force
The powers that be try and take control
In confrontation with democracy
with the rise & fall of a nation gone to hell

facing fear, fear in discipline, another night time to pay the price
just two steps closer to the attack
unleashed is their rage in doubt fight back

for the light at the end of the tunnel is my way out
I asked for a life of both pleasure and pain
all this I've lost the fight in which I've never ever gained
I've been led down a dead end path
misled down a dead end path
I've been led down a dead end path
crossfire killing the innocent, another victim will fall
who said their time has come - is it our lord, the one who we bow
down before
parents crying, the life of their loved ones lay in death before their eyes
casket bears a child of our future - another victim from the realms
of cities' crimes
caught in the crossfire
cry havoc & let slip the dogs of war
wrong us & face our revenge
silence will be our tool of trade - 'til our 9 shouts out
you're the king of kings on the street - yet your demise is near
prick us, do we not bleed
mirror reflects all that you have to fear
caught in the crossfire x2
another name carved in stone - as they lay to rest
blood for blood, eye for eye - put it to the test
call upon me to face the strike - seeing you in the end
divine intervention preaching your solemn holy words
they place their faith as you pawn their trust away
advantageous ways that you get paid
{chorus} x2
your mirror shows black
I see your pain
abolishment of present, past & the future
karma has returned your way
full circle attack, signs of penance you lack
it's the price he paid for his judgement day
{chorus}
enter my world, no holding back on you
you'll bleed as I bled
recognize the disgrace you've placed on our fucking race
trust displaced as my heart fills with hate
in time my wounds will heal - as they give your name
rivals meeting face to face - fate sealed, you bow down in shame
run, run, you run so far - escape to nowhere
I smell the path you've fled - turn your head you're dead
{chorus}
I am the master killer - fall to me
pray for a way out which you can't see
I the master killer - strike you down
can't be detected, I own the crown
your solemn sanctuary has become mine
crawl upon your victims - see the tears of fear in their eyes
watch them bleed, see as they writhe in pain
no one will answer
I've taken your mind and soul
only escape is your fucking grave
{chorus}
the end has come for you at the cost of your life
now I stand atop the mountain, my killings have no end in sight
Now you're in way too deep
You made your bed punk now
We'll put you to sleep
Thought we would never get the news
Thought we'd never come for you
Been too many times around the block
We seen it all son, you better stop
From trying to seek props from our name
Try to gain yourself some fame
Did you see it coming, payback
Now the time has come to pass
We've come to settle up and kick your ass
Bad karma's coming to pound
You're a mutt and you're going down
Stick your tail between your legs
Just the thought of me makes you beg
Talk about pride and respect
Muthafucker that's my foot on your neck
Did you see it coming, payback
Lesson learned, the price was met
Shut your mouth cause you know what you'll get
When you see me walking down my streets
Pay your respect, don't make me repeat
Rule the world, touch the sun
Put a needle through the moon and watch it bleed
Break the walls, scratch the floors
Take the gold and make it yours
Cos' you're a million miles from the sand that plays
Time's on your and i must say
You can touch the highest star, if you believe
Then you'll go far
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
You can do it for yourself
Read the sky, calm the seas
Gotta find your island and plant that seed
Kick the door, open wide, take the glass
And drink the wine
Unanswered questions, leave no secret desire
And for the burning bridges, leave no fire
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
You can do it for yourself
Give water to the desert, give salt unto the sea
Lay scent upon a flower, stop the revolution inside of me
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
You can do it for yourself
Give water to the desert, give salt unto the sea
Lay scent upon a flower, that's how easy it could be
If i could believe, gotta believe
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
You can do it for yourself
Golden fields, singing trees, conducted by
The wind and breeze
You can have all your dreams, but you've got to believe
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
Sometimes I just can't understand
Why you would wanna be a victim of a fad
Fashion's such a drag
I wanna see the type of girl for me
The kind of girl that's on my scene
Some got hair in pink and blue
Pierced nipples and rock tattoos
Combat boots that stomp the ground
Our scene girls they wear the crown
Yes sir, I love my underground girl
Girlie shirts a tummy ring
Standing next to me moshing
Some are big and some are small
I don't care I love them all
Yes sir, I love my underground girl
I see plastic chicks on the t.v.
Running through the waves
Bouncing balls of silicone,
I just flick the screen
I wanna see the type of girl for me
Here comes the plague of the great white Pope
With his crew of devils sailing on Satan's boats
Discover and conquer that was their mission
In the name of Christ and his so called religion
I'll never consecrate his name
I'll never celebrate his fame
I'll never bend to be of the flock
I see your light and it's the devil's flame
Caught in the wake of the great messiah
To purify our soul from desire
Shedding our blood in vein say it's the Christian way
How can a loving God bring so much pain
I'll never consecrate his name
I'll never celebrate his fame
I'll never bend to be of the flock
I see your light and it's the devil's flame
Here comes the plague of the great white Pope
Who built an empire on stealing people's hope
You ask for faith, compassion's the mission
And beg forgiveness for your own afflictions
Here comes the plague, here it comes
Forgiveness for your own afflictions
Here comes the plague here it comes
Mr. Righteous I see you heading down my way
Preachin' and preachin' but no commitment
To what you say
New days new ways but your game remains the same
Crush the life of believers for your own personal gain
Time has come for you to fall we won't be misled
We can see through your eyes they won't burn me again
Try to sell me something you'll never be
To the faithless of my soul how can you do this to me
Mr. Righteous I see you heading down my way
Approaching with a grin and a soul so full of sin
Another plan to persuade another plan to dominate
Betrayal is the game that you play
My vengeance is your fate
Time has come for you to fall we won't be misled
We can see through your eyes they won't burn me again
Never will your eyes burn me again
Never will I fall into your ways
Never will your eyes burn me again
Sand moved by the hand of God
Shakes those worn tents
Sleeps the scared tribe of Israel
With both eyes searching the darkness.
Poor memories packed with love,
Men and goats, same fear.
Stands in the wind, Aaron the Levite,
Looks at his brother across the night.
Half freedom is nothing but slavery.
Seven times, Egypt they wounded.
But bloody rivers, snakes or sticks,
It's just a trick.
Blind men walking towards nowhere,
Now, we are talking 'bout magic.
A promised land they'll never see.
And this is faith.
Faith that guides the steps
Faith against any hope
Faith against reasons
In a promise that will be kept
Cruel Egypt seeking revenge
No way back, no more.
What a hard duty to be free,
This freezing desert all what you get.
I've seen the sand of Palestine
I've seen the Jordan
The fruits the fields, the land of Cain.
And forty years of hunger and pain.
Yes, God spoke to me, one day,
He showed the way.
But I'm a man with no certainty.
And they have only one, they've me.
Faith that guides the steps
Faith against any hope
Faith against reasons
John is my name, this lonely desert, my home.
Silence, hunger and cold 'r the company I need.
Wake up, I've got a dream,
I bring the news
That ye were waiting!
The water of the Jordan
Will wash away
The sins of Galilee.
Don't call me prophet!
Why can't you see?
I'm just a messenger,
Harp hanging from a tree.
Elijah's voice,
Crying in the desert.
With many names they have called me
But still they don't want to see.
I bring the news of the greatest change and
They just see water in my hand.
Wake up, a man is coming,
A special one,
With fire he'll finish
What I just began.
He'll grow a forest,
Where I left some seeds.
With many names they have called me
But still they don't want to see.
I bring the news of the greatest change and
They just see water in my hand.
Oh my Lord, to set them free
I've tried so many ways,
I've warned and prayed
Cried and waited,
Bended on my knee.
A new time is coming soon,
Plenty of signs around me.
A cross is ready up the hill for the man
Who can forgive what I can't.
A new time is coming soon,
That I will never see.
The price paid for a dance under the moon
The Giant And The Shepherd
Who says you can always pick your path
Has never been on a battle field
Sometimes there isn't a real choice
If you are David or Goliath
Isn't up to you.
Time passes by and leaves just sand
Fading memories of men and lives
Heroes out of the shadows of time
Tiny men shaking like autumn leaves.
So may happen that a shepherd
Talks too much and falls in trouble
Marks the story
Kills a giant,
Find his glory!
A man in a shining armor,
A giant spreading fear!
Soldiers running, shame on Israel!
But a young shepherd defends his flock.
Hunter of lions and wolves,
Isn't a giant just another man?
Doesn't he wear a blade?
Doesn't he fear his arm?
Oh, David is young!
Doesn't he wear a blade?
Doesn't he fear his arm?
Oh, David is brave!
Eyes of a giant cannot see
Pride pays a fee
David is smart, David is fast
Heavy is the sword
Quick is the dart
Silence around
Goliath stands
Slowly he moves
Then closes his eyes
Eyes of a giant cannot see
Pride pays a fee
David is smart, David is fast
Heavy is the sword
Quick is the dart
Now lies the warrior on his knees
And none believes
Now lies the giant on his fours
Soldiers cannot breath.
One in the sand in his own blood
One in the air
Raises the envy of a king,
Eli, Eli Eli Lema Sabactani!
Oh, why hast thou forsaken me?
Eli, Eli Eli Lema Sabactani!
Why love asks for so much pain?
Rough wood scorches my skin
Each step is harder
Pain, deep like a sin.
Blood over my eyes
But I can hear
Yesterday friends laughs.
My heart won't bring me up there
Breath doesn't come.
Laughs everywhere.
Pitiless sun burns my throat
No friendly faces
To calm this thirst.
Who's him, what did he do?
A fool who had a dream
A lover without sin
Law won't allow a king with no crown
John, brothers, where are ye?
Peter,
Denying me.
Love doesn't fear wounds,
Father,
But this poor body shakes...
Nails through bones
A cross is made
Pain makes us all the same
These two men
At my side
Would deserve a better fate.
I won't go
I won't leave
As he didn't leave me
I was lost
With no pride
Then one day he smiled.
Silently a woman cries
Little whispers of pain
Fading slowly at sunset
Three crosses in the rain
No, father!
Not her, no!
This is not for her eyes
Now I know,
Bring her away
This is a price well paid
Seventh hour
One single cry
I know it's over now
Donno how
So much to say
But I just ran away
Silently a woman cries
Little whispers of pain
Fading slowly at sunset
Three crosses in the rain
T'was a price well paid
The corpse seems to smile
The patrol is here!
Hide in the darkness!
Quick come with me,
Silent or lost.
The mark we refused,
The beast has no mercy.
We are the game,
He's the hunter!
Forty two months has ruled
Over kings and kingdoms.
Over the Earth.
His wicked miracles
Have poisoned our dreams.
Black thorns of despair.
Run, behind the corner!
Run, into the shadow!
Quick, man! Quick.
Crazy wizards reign.
Wise men hiding,
Waiting a sign.
Seven seals broken,
Now rules the beast.
Evil is loosen over the world.
Seven seals broken,
Seven trumpets played.
The age of darkness has come on Earth.
But in the deepest,
In the darkest hour,
Still someone has not lost his heart
When no one believes,
When fear only rules,
Still someone has not lost his hopes.
Beware of a lamb,
Vane emperor!
It's time:
The Age of the Return
Has come!
In a white cloud I've seen
Death coming with a crown.
They are here.
Oh evil Babylon,
Which lie will save you
Now that they have come?
Ten cruel kings of the world,
Blasphemous alliance
It's the end.
One thousand years
Will last his reign of love.
Now I'm hiding
But soon I'll raise
It's time...
The age of the return
Has come!
Beware of a lamb,
Vane emperor!
It's time...
The age of the return
Has come!
Seven seals broken
Now rules the beast
Evil is loosen over the world
Seven seals broken
Seven trumpets played
The age of darkness has come on Earth
But in the deepest
In the darkest hour
Still someone has not lost his heart
When no one believes
When fear only rules
I wonder what my father would say today,
If he could see me in this weird place.
He that never went a mile away,
He that never left his land nor his boat.
My bones are stiff, my beard is long and gray,
My tired eyes confuse shadows and lights.
Still with iron chains they tied my wrists.
How much can an old man scare an empire!
Chains have no power
Won't stop his words
Won't stop thoughts from running away.
Outside the sun shines
The old man smiles
And closes his eyes.
I went so far away!
No fisherman ever
Made such a long way.
Nets are too heavy,
To catch bigger fish, you need to fly.
Painfully, sits the old men on the floor
Passes the spring through the air.
They build a cross,
They think is funny.
An honor that I don't deserve.
The day is sunny
I pity them
For all what they miss.
"Kephas is your name"
This once he said
"And on this stone something we'll build"
I wish I had known
Heavy is the weight
A stone has to hold.
Iron and walls
To bury an idea
Iron and walls
For an old man
Who smiles, closes his eyes and flies away
So many friends are waiting for me out there
Death does not scare me, why should She?
Sometimes I can't remember the faces
But their words are still with me.
Bit of pain doesn't count
When time has come.
I just hope he has forgotten
Now that time has gone
Three "no" of fear
I said on that mount.
Iron and walls
To bury an idea
Iron and walls
For an old man
Under the chains, meat gets rotten,
I've counted this stones every day
I had forgotten
To have a debt to pay
But now I know.
Her beauty sweet like poison,
All she's taken.
But now I have awaken
Now I am back!
Pain, when tendons and muscles seem to crack.
God, make me the shadow of the man I was
Now that I've nothing left finally all is clear
I am back.
For the empty promises whispered in the wind,
For the days that won't return, the lost joy
For my freedom, for the betrayal that loosed my mind,
They'll all will pay.
Where is his strength?
He's just a child,
Trapped in the body of a man.
Clever woman!
Or just cruel...
Empty promises of love.
You asked his trust,
And then you laughed.
Kissing your mouth he got lost.
Down in the jail,
Dreaming revenge.
Blind tears in the dark.
Women are a matter of lust,
Their beauty only a sweet trap.
They talk of trust,
They want you to believe
The day they leave.
She took my name, pride and glory,
She was my shame,
She sold my freedom,
Throw me in jail.
Pain, when tendons and muscles seem to crack.
They took my eyes but I'll see my revenge.
Tonight will be different, tonight all will change.
I am back.
I hear her voice between the songs, I hear her laugh.
Life is running away, but they'll come with me!
And laughs can easily turn into cries, as she taught.
So red was her mouth:
Cracks in the roof.
The child has grown.
Hard a lesson has learnt.
Clever woman!
Or just cruel...
Empty promises of love.
You asked his trust,
And then you laughed.
On your mouth he got lost.
Revenge taste's strange
Bitter and sweet
Like blind tears in the dark.
Revenge taste's strange
Bitter and sweet
It's beautiful,
Look, how it shines!
Not just a coin:
It's silver.
It is the price
Of a human life
Look, how it shines!
Between the trees,
A little man cries,
Shadows on his face
Empty eyes.
Accomplished destiny,
Someway we can say.
A little man cries.
Thirty coins,
Shining silver
Thrown in the air by Juda's hand.
Last night dinner,
We knew he was lost
Soldiers all around.
He was lost.
He looked at us,
Deep into our souls,
Little weak things.
It was written
Someone would betray.
A kiss like a mark.
That same is he!
Just I can't see,
Since all he knew,
Why not to stop me.
Where can I hide?
How to forget
The days I spent
On his side?
I can stand hate
But not those eyes,
All that forgiveness
So much love.
Where can I hide?
How to forget
The days I spent
On his side?
Death is silence,
Eternal regret.
The last escape,
Without peace.
Not far away,
Thirty silver coins
Misunderstandings
The two men look at each other,
Both have a role in this story,
But one of them won't understand.
Fate curious irony.
Once my wife dreamed of you,
I wondered what it'd mean.
But no fault I've seen,
Into your words.
Pilatus, governor, listen to us!
We are the priests of Jerusalem,
Has to die, this blasphemous man
Who shamelessly swears curses and lies!
He's here to keep peace,
The peace of Rome.
Peace at any cost.
Always.
People of Galilee,
Pick one to save.
For one that'll be free,
One'll die.
He's here to keep peace,
The peace of Rome.
Peace at any cost.
Oh, yes, 'bout this we all agree,
It wasn't just a little apple,
Even if we picked it from a tree.
Really, was a solemn pact made
That we weren't able to keep,
A matter of betrayed faith.
Hear God's voice!
Fear his rage!
Any fruit was ours, all the wealth,
Except for the one forbidden:
Peace, silence, eternal health.
"Take it" slowly hissed the snake,
"It's so juicy, why exitate?
He just fears your race to wake!"
Respect the pact!
Knowledge we wanted a and full knowledge we've gotten
Of the bad things on Earth not one we've forgotten.
Now that we know hunger, cold, pain and neglect,
Still hopeless hopes are left.
Fast are passing by the years in this harsh land
Aches the back under the farm work, bleed the hands.
Now that we know hunger, cold, pain and neglect,
Still hopeless hopes are left.
Her beauty is fading away, but not her smile
Weakness helps a new wisdom to grow deep inside.
Short life of pain, just one regret,
The shame of a promise unkept.
Pain is needed
Pleasure to feel,
Hate is required
Love to believe.
Oh, Eve is aging, but not for my eyes!
God still waits us,
Keeps the garden,
Where one day our
Children will play.
Oh, Eve is aging, but so isn't our love!
And if I look into her eyes untouched by time,
I still see memories of a lost paradise.
Now that we know hunger, cold, pain and neglect,
Still hopeless hopes are left.
Short life of pain, just one regret,
Thundering nothing,
Revolving darkness.
Then He said "light", and light was.
And stars and anything.
Favourite angel,
And lux ferentes.
Burning of blind jealousy
For the Creation He loves.
Little men
Shadows and nights
Universe from a single thought.
Angels at war,
Shaking the sky.
Ages or seconds.
He did not move,
He did not raise.
Just painfully looked.
Hell is not burning,
Is frozen and dry.
A heart who cannot repent,
Tears eternally hold.
Black stormy mirror,
Cruelly reflecting
A blind worm trapped in the dark,
Screams and cries I hear
From the rancid world
The virgin is infested
By pollution and twisted thoughts
While the wises seek below
Religion fall no slow
Suffering the pain
As your blood is turned to shit
Sickening
Sickish disease
Babies born with the sword inside
Their infested fathers now they must die
Bastard Pope he lies in his world
He loves the gay, lesbian and whore
Walk with care cause you can die
Satan's whore is free for your soul
You fuck her body the virus inside
Soon your life decays and dies
Insanity beget insanity
As evil beget evil
As pain beget pain
As pest beget pest
As sickish beget death
As your death beget pleasure!
Quest for sanity
Insanity beget insanity
Infamous game of death
They must die again
While the wises seek below
Religion fall no slow
Must suffer the pain
As your blood is turned to shit
