inner peace
Martyr Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Musique: Daniel Mongrain & François Mongrain)
(Paroles: Daniel Mongrain & François Richard)

(Ne vous laissez pas influencer par les autres. Ne laissez pas le jugement des autres démolir votre intégrité. Ne vous faites pas prendre dans leur jeu... trouvez votre paix intérieure.)

(DM-) FACE AGAINST THE GROUND
COVERED WITH TEARS
YOUR FAITH IN YOUR EQUAL
RUNS FROM YOUR INNER VOICE
THE ONE IN WHICH YOU RUN
IN WHICH YOU'RE LOST
PANICKED FROM THE VOID
AND THE ABSTRACT

IMMORTAL TRACE
OF AN INJURED SOUL
YOU SUFFER
AN UNDESERVED PAIN
INFLICTED BY THE WOUND
WHICH CAN NEVER BE MENDED
INNOCENCE

WITHOUT BEARING ALL THE EVILS
WITHOUT A HUNGER FOR REVENGE
WITHOUT IMPOSING YOUR WRATH
BUT LIVING IT IN YOUR OWN RIGHT
THE WAY IT HAS TO BE

ROTTING IN CORRUPTION
THE MISFITS ARE PUNISHED
OVERWHELMED BY THE HATE
OF THOSE TURNED
INTO NOTHINGNESS

NO NEED TO WEAR YOURSELF OUT
FROM THE SCORN AND THE SHAME
ONCE YOU UNDERSTAND
THEY'RE TRYING TO DRAG YOU INTO THEIR HELL
WHICH GOES BEYOND THEIR BOUNDARIES

(Lead: Pier-Luc Lampron)
(Lead: Daniel Mongrain)





FIND YOUR INNER PEACE.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Martyr's song Inner Peace is a call to resist the negative influence of others and find peace within oneself. The opening lines paint a picture of a person with their face on the ground, covered in tears, and losing faith in their own voice. The feelings of panic and loss are caused by the abstract and overwhelming nature of the world around them. The person's soul is wounded, a trace of which will be immortal. The suffering they experience is undeserved, and their innocence is lost forever.


The next part of the lyrics is a call to reject revenge and wrath, to not impose one's own will on others, but to live in one's own right. The song highlights the dangers of corruption and hate, the punishment of the misfits, and the overwhelming force of negativity that can drag a person down. The chorus calls for people to resist the scorn and shame of others and to find their own inner peace.


Overall, the song urges listeners not to be influenced by negative opinions or to let themselves be pulled into the darkness. Instead, it encourages them to find their own path and to remain true to themselves. Inner peace is an individual journey, and it takes strength and courage to find it.

This is what I consider actual tech death. Riffs, while chaotic, feel articulated to one another, and actually sound like they mean somenthing. They don't rely only on blast beats, fast arpeggios and overly low tunings
Amazing band
