Martyr - The Fortune-Teller lyrics

[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

[Lead: Pier-Luc Lampron]

No one seems to hear you anyway
