Motionless in White

Lyrics

[Spoken]
Good evening, and welcome to another chilling installment of Broadcasting From Beyond the Grave
Tonight's grim and ghastly tale: Corpse Nation

[Intro: Justin Morrow and Chris Motionless]
Look into the darkness
Web of crooked thoughts
Lobotomized and left to rot
Feed into the promise
Worship every drop
Deny it when the pageant flops
Go

[Verse 1: Justin Morrow and Chris Motionless]
They spew it, nothing to it
Just another cycle of abuse, propaganda on a loop
Sermon, so determined
To be the live grenade, a predatory game
Adrift lost in the cybеr sea
A movement consuming, contеntious hate is blooming
Aimed to harden the divide

[Pre-Chorus: Chris Motionless]
United by a story in your melting pot of misery
Hold yourself a prophet but you're really just a comedy
We won't take this anymore
Let me say it one more time
[Chorus: Chris Motionless]
Look into the darkness
Web of crooked thoughts
Lobotomized and left to rot (Corpse nation)
Feed into the promise
Worship every drop
Deny it when the pageant flops (Corpse nation, corpse nation)
Oh my god, they're horrifying

[Verse 2: Justin Morrow and Chris Motionless]
Violence, systemic virus
Please take a seat and read the room
Ignorance will be your doom
Contagious, hysteric rages
But it's time to let the rhetoric go up in flames
Assault with your cryptic words
Uncensored ramblings to a brain dead herd
Agenda tailored for supremacy
Indoctrinated fallacy

[Chorus: Chris Motionless]
Look into the darkness
Web of crooked thoughts
Lobotomized and left to rot (Corpse nation)
Feed into the promise
Worship every drop
Deny it when the pageant flops (Corpse nation, corpse nation)
[Bridge: Chris Motionless]
Malignant manifesto
Two-bit horror show
If truth's what makes you shudder
Research this, motherfucker
Blegh

[Breakdown: Chris Motionless]
Where you go one you'll all fall
I won't, I won't, I won't stand back and bite my tongue
Where you go one you'll all fall
Disillusioned, where are you now?

[Chorus: Chris Motionless and Justin Morrow]
Stare into the darkness
Web of crooked thoughts
Lobotomized and left to rot (Corpse nation)
Malignant manifesto
Worship every drop
Deny it when the pageant flops (Corpse nation, mutation, corpse nation, damnation now)
Fuck youEmbed

If you're a fan of Motionless in White, then you're probably familiar with their 6th studio album, Scoring the End of the World, and their Broadcasting From Beyond the Grave series. The most recent addition to that series is B.F.B.T.G.: Corpse Nation. This tenth track on their album is a haunting tune that's quite different from its predecessor. The song is a perfect match for the lyrics, and the music video further showcases the creepy vibe of the song.

About B.F.B.T.G.: Corpse Nation

B.F.B.T.G.: Corpse Nation is the second track in the four-song series of Broadcasting From Beyond the Grave, by the renowned metal band, Motionless in White. The song's style is a lot different from its predecessor, Broadcasting from Beyond the Grave: Death Inc, and it's a perfect example of their adeptness in changing styles without losing their sound's essence. The song has a horror-themed approach as emphasized by the creepy riffs and haunting chorus that would make music enthusiasts with a taste for the dark and gory grin with pleasure.

The song's lyrics focus on a dystopian world where society's decaying state has caused an uproar and led to lawlessness and gruesome acts. It emphasizes how society has become more animalistic, which has progressively led to the breakdown of civilization. The vocals are delivered in dual form, with the screams predominantly being unclean and the chorus melodic, which is not new in the metal scene.

The song's intro begins with guitar riffs that are eerie and ominous, setting the scene effectively for the dark subject matter. Mirror synths come into play shortly after, initially complementing the guitar riffs and then taking over them. The drumming dynamics are impressive, creating an air of unease that is further amplified by the intricate beat patterns.

The guitar riffs are unique, with a higher emphasis on the usage of track synthesis. It's notable how the guitar riffs switch from ear-piercing screeches in the verses to smoothly smoothed-out harmonies in the interludes that add a sense of eeriness to the composition. The melodic chorus features a haunting vocal effect that's catchy and memorable.

The music video further emphasizes the song's subject matter and its dark nature, making it one of the most intense music videos by Motionless in White. The video portrays a dystopian world filled with decaying nature, violence, and anarchy. The video's depiction of the lyrics is quite accurate, with the use of various prosthetics and body paint showcasing the violence and carnage present in the world. Furthermore, the visual effects and the dark and somber lighting contribute to the eerie mood of the song.

In ending, Motionless in White's B.F.B.T.G.: Corpse Nation is an excellent example of how the band can switch up their style without losing their essence. The song's elaborate and eerie score, paired with Chris Cerulli's amazing vocal delivery, make this song a definite hit among their fans. The lyrics fit well with the music video, taking the listener on a nightmarish journey through a desolate and horrific world. This is not one of those metal songs you come across every day, so it's worth a listen for fans of the genre.
