Mozart l’Opéra Rock (Musical) "Victime de ma victoire" lyrics

Victime de ma victoire

Je me croyais l'éluEn volant mon histoireMais je me suis perdu pour gagner

À vaincre sans vertuOn triomphe sans gloireL'honneur vaut mieux que le trophée

(C'est ridiculePas de scrupulesIl faut triompher

Si on t'adulePas de scrupulesLaisse-toi porter)

Mais le miroirFuit mon regardPour ne pas voirQue je suis victime de ma victoire

Oui, je m'avoue vaincuPar le goût du pouvoirParvenu en haut sans m'élever

Je suis prince incongruD'un talent dérisoireMe faire aimer des autres sans aimer

(C'est ridiculePas de scrupulesIl faut triompher

Si on t'adulePas de scrupulesLaisse-toi porter)

Mais le miroirFuit mon regardPour ne pas voirQue je suis victime de ma victoireVictime de ma victoire

Victime de ma victoireMa gloire est dérisoire

(C'est ridiculePas de scrupulesIl faut triompher

Si on t'adulePas de scrupulesLaisse-toi porter)

Mais le miroirFuit mon regardPour ne pas voirQue je suis victime de ma victoireVictime de ma victoire

(C'est ridiculePas de scrupulesIl faut triompher)Pourquoi triompher ?

(Si on t'adulePas de scrupulesLaisse-toi porter)

Mais mon orgueilPorte le deuilPour ne plus voirQue je suis victime de ma victoire(Victime de ma victoire)Victime de ma victoireJ'ai perdu pour l'Histoire

Victim of my Victory

I thought I was the chosen oneStealing my storyBut I got lost to win

If you unfairly winYou triumph without gloryHonour beats trophies

( It's ridiculousNo qualmsYou have to triumph

If they adulate youNo qualmsLet yourself go )

But the mirrorFlees from my sightNot to seeI'm the victim of my victory

Yes , I admit I'm beatenBy the taste of powerI reached the top without rising

I'm an unseemly princeWith a pathetic talentI want others to love me without loving back

( It's ridiculousNo qualmsYou have to triumph

If they adulate youNo qualmsLet yourself go )

But the mirrorFlees from my sightNot to seeI'm the victim of my victory

Victim of my victoryMy glory is pathetic

I thought I was the chosen oneStealing my storyBut I got lost to win

If you unfairly winYou triumph without gloryHonour beats trophies

( It's ridiculousNo qualmsYou have to triumph

If they adulate youNo qualmsLet yourself go )

But the mirrorFlees from my sightNot to seeI'm the victim of my victory

Yes , I admit I'm beatenBy the taste of powerI reached the top without rising

I'm an unseemly princeWith a pathetic talentI want others to love me without loving back

( It's ridiculousNo qualmsYou have to triumph

If they adulate youNo qualmsLet yourself go )

But the mirrorFlees from my sightNot to seeI'm the victim of my victory

Victim of my victoryMy glory is pathetic

( It's ridiculousNo qualmsYou have to triumph

If they adulate youNo qualmsLet yourself go )

But the mirrorFlees from my sightNot to seeI'm the victim of my victoryVictim of my victory

( It's ridiculousNo qualmsYou have to triumph )Why triumph ?

( If they adulate youNo qualmsLet yourself go )

But my egoIs grievingNot to seeI'm the victim of my victory( Victim of my victory )Victim of my victoryI've lost for History
