You, a smile bothers you
A happy feeling hurts you, offends you
What's left for those who bleed
The souls in pain?
What's left for them?
And those who dream of a truce
Of light and better?
My gaze isn't made for this world
Isn't made for others, no
Isn't made for this world
My gaze isn't made for this world
Isn't made for others, no
Isn't made for this world
We, a smile works for us
When we don't feel the fire anymore
We light it and we change
The tears of the hearts of those fading in the arena
What have we done better?
Let those who love each other stand up
Seems it's contagious
My gaze isn't made for this world
Isn't made for others, no
Isn't made for this world
My gaze isn't made for this world
Isn't made for others, no
Isn't made for this world
Ba-la-ba-la-pa-pa, ba-la-pa-pa
Isn't made for this
La-pa-pa, ba-la-pa-pa
Isn't made for this world
For those who bleed, the souls in pain
What's left for them?
And those who dream of a truce
Of light and better?
My gaze isn't made for this world
Isn't made for others, no
Isn't made for this world
My gaze isn't made for this world
Isn't made for others, no
Isn't made for this world
Ba-la-ba-la-pa-pa, ba-la-pa-pa
Isn't made for this
La-pa-pa, ba-la-pa-pa
Isn't made for this world

SONG MEANING

Mon Regard (which means My Gaze) is Margot Abate’s soulful meditation on feeling out of place in a bruised world. Singing in French, the Peruvian artist contrasts two groups of people: those so jaded that even a simple smile “offends” them, and those who still dare to dream of light, peace, and healing. When she repeats “Mon regard n'est pas fait pour ce monde” (“My gaze is not made for this world”), Margot is not whining. She is confessing that her sensitive eyes see the hurt others ignore and suggesting that this very sensitivity can spark change.

The chorus turns into a rallying cry. If some people try to smother joy, Margot urges the rest of us to “relight the fire” and show that love is contagious. The song’s playful ba-la-pa-pa hook keeps things upbeat, reminding listeners that hope can sound like a party even while it protests. In short, Mon Regard is both a gentle lament and an empowering anthem: it tells anyone who feels “not made for this world” that their unique view is exactly what the world needs to heal.
