Lyrics

[Musique: daniel mongrain (with the collaboration of françois mongrain)]
[Paroles: françois mongrain]

[Un cadavre repose dans son sang, une vision figée dans le temps; profanation de l'âme d'un mourant, l'utilisation de la mort pour la gloire de l'argent. et certains osent appeler ça de l'art.]

[Dm-]</i> a bloody hand collapsed
On the soiled ground
It's fluid of life streaming
Through the earth's entrails
A good angle is not a problem to catch
Those expressions that will last

Perfect models for the exposure
But in an art gallery
Why don't they let those corpses disappear
'Can't call this immortality

[Dm+fm-]</i> ars nova, desecration
Ars nova, normalization attempt

[Dm-]</i> they want to see themselves as artists
With the finest aesthetic
But I see this as vandalism
With no respect for the dying
Privilege of some photographies
Sacrilege of what they see
Privilege of some atrocities
Desecration

[Lead: daniel mongrain]

[Dm+fm-]</i> ars nova, desecration
Ars nova, necrophillic temptation

[Dm-]</i> perfect models for the exposure
But in an art gallery
[Dm+fm-]</i> why don't they let those corpses disappear
'Can't call this immortality
