I don't want this, I don't need this
I don't give a single fuck about your thoughts and prayers
Salvation in destruction, and I am the apostle of pain
There's more money in tragedy, and more net worth in self pity
So you're doubling down inside of your screen, hiding behind attention you seek
There's nowhere left for you to hide the bodies
Don't pray for me when you're the one to blame
Don't think of me when you go up in flames
Don't pray for me when you're the one enslaved
No miracles, just fantasy
Separated
Separated
So spare me your pity symphony
Wake up and get up off your knees
Handcuffed by Sunday fallacy
Crucify the saint in your soul
An addict for plaudit, you get your crucifix
Don't pray for me when you're the one to blame
Don't think of me when you go up in flames
Don't pray for me when you're the one enslaved
Don't wish me well, in your fantasy
You know the dead can't hear you
The holy well is dry
So when you face the truth
Open your fuckin' eyes
Preying on the violence
You fabricate a script
Preaching to fill your pockets
But your god is counterfeit
You love to play the victim
Can I get an amen?
Yet you canonize yourself
While you wear this crown of shit
You get what you pray for
You don't get anything playing the part when it's insincere
So give up the pain, give up the game
Just give up the holy ghost
You won't get what you pray for, won't get what you pray for - เพลง

As a band called motionless in white, Chris sure moves a lot in white.
thats clever 😂😂
😂
I’m dead lol
@@Jjmcwashere motionless
Good one
My husband just referred to Chris Motionless as the "Vanilla Joker." and now I'm not going to be able to think of anything else for awhile.
Soon as I read vanilla joker he growled in the beginning. Now I won't either lol. This is my first listen 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
lol
Joker wishes he was this badass and sexy.
chris motionless should play in the next batman movie
new joker
When my Dad first heard this song he looked at me wide eyed and said: "Is Chris going to fucking explode?" And it's still the best reaction I've ever heard to this song.
I showed this to my cousin and he said" i didn't know joker had a emo cult"

It does sound like an explosion of everything at once packed into one song
🤣 Fawk
I love how chris can transition between scream vocals and soft vocals like it's nothing
It's literally 2 different takes in the studio wdym
@@KeaHM he does it in the live version too
@@KeaHM are you new to vocals? Chris actually is a incredible vocalist. Good vocalists tend to do that without needing that
@@dominickainling Chris is actually an incredible vocalist but to think that he can switch screams to cleans that smoothly and suden without any post production tools and without hurting his throat it's just laughable, even for Chris himself, hell, he even has to make a 3 second pause when he's performing this song, HE'S NOT A ROBOT, and yes, i'm a vocalist, have a good one
@@KeaHM bro, he can switch, everyone can, check Tatiana from Jinjer
BANGER!
Always a bangar!!!
Reaction please
cover?
Happy Nik.
Cover it now
So Ricky is a guitarist, composer, singer, ex-bassist and even the director now? I'm impressed!
Ricky is Fuckin nuts. Dude is INSANELY talented
No
Ricky is amazing
Check out his yt channel
yes
@@deathmetalskeptic5547 remember its in his dna
2:24 one of the greatest breakdown in metalcore history, no doubt
their best breakdown forsure
❤️
Ong
I said that the first ever time I heard thus
Metalcore is still alive
What a lovely song relax to
so realaxing
Before sleep, Max sound on, so relaxing
it's on my ASMR playlist
!Dyslexic became you relaxed so you made song this
Relaxes me
Blonde Chris was something I didn't know I needed
Mood
Nobody truly knew they needed it until it happened
LoL
Blonde Chris threw me off for a second it suits him tho, he kinda looks more aestheticly dead with the blonde, I watch too much iZombie to not think death is aesthetic
Totally agree 😍✌🏻
Crew: "Hey guys, so how much blood do you want to fall on you?"
MIW: "Yes"
🤣🤣🤣
Miw: you know like a metal video but with more blood
Ricky deserves more credit for directing this, that man really can do it all
One of the only bands from my teenage years still kicking it like they used to songs are still amazing.
I thought the same thing !! I love it
I’ve only recently discovered them. I have 3 albums and almost every song in bangin.
Your teenage years?? Oiii vey 😂 I’m an old hag then 😂😂😂😂 but Sevendust is my ❤ and grew up going to their shows with my brother starting at 11. I’m 35. They just put out another album this past July and can run circles around some of these newer bands!!!
Just when I thought I couldn't love this band any more!
Mee too🖤 i love them so f.... much
Couldnt agree more! 😍😍
Queen🖤
You should interview Chris
Fully agree with you Chris rocks the blond and i like the use of the blood
Me: I’m loving the hell out of this so much!
*everyone else* : _Chris’s hair is blonde now…_
😂😂😂
Same
Ok but his blonde hair is almost as fucking good as the song itself 😜🖤
@@amarantheinwhite agreed
🤣🤣🤣 yeeeees
I'm 34yrs old and YESTERDAY is the first time I've ever listened to this band. How is that even possible?
what a lovely song to fall asleep to on full volume,so relaxing! ty chris
Chris looks great. What's funny as hell is him in the white suit when he stayed still at the end he truly was Motionless In White.
BRUH 😂
😂😂😂
HAHAHAH
Ba dum tiss!
Omg 🤣
Everyone here is talking about Chris‘ hair but can we just take a minute and appreciate all of them? Like… DAMN
I agree 100%
Yes.
True and the song too
I'm appreciating the song🙌🏼
I KNOW RIGHT THEY ARE JUST SO PRECIOUS I LOVE THIS BAND
I'm kicking myself for not listening to them years ago. I have been so obsessed with this band that i have been listening ro them non-stop. I even sing the songs in my head at work. My day isn't a good one if i don't listen to them at the beginning and end of the day.
I love how MIW’s music has stood the test of time. I started listening to them as a sophomore in high school and all these years later (gonna be 27) I still enjoy listening to them especially when I’m working out at the gym pumpin iron 😂
Pumping iron 🔥
Being Chris Motionless has to be the hardest job in the industry
LITERALLY 😭❤️
lmao
yes that's true
420th like yall
@@Kxrnflake ery nice
I'm sure someone else has mentioned this before, but the concept of weighing hearts goes back to Egyptian mythology and Anubis, who would weigh your heart before you were allowed to enter the afterlife. If it weighed more than the feather of Maat (another Egyptian figure), you were immediately banished from the afterlife. In the video, he weighs their hearts on a scale with a feather, but even the ones who passed the test ended up dead. Really powerful subtext if you understand what's going on.
I like educated people on TH-cam. It's a nice change.
You just brought me back to grade 7 history :)
Nice thanks. I'm like why the heart and feather is going on.lol
Not just banished, your heart was eaten by Ammit, a part Lion, part Hippo, part Crocodile goddess/demoness and your soul was forced to become a wandering spirit for eternity.
The details is everything I love!
The meaning itself is what caught my attention. Then music. This is how you know we have an artist.
Saw this live last March… the drop before the breakdown is EPIC. The lights went up and the whole crowd yelled “open your fucking eyes!!!” And dude it was something special. The pit went stupid.
Chris be doing his little dancy dance during that break down.
Pennywise ain't got shit on those moves lmao
He’s too damn adorable
Can u pls tell me what's that on Chris', Justin's and Ryan's body, the black colored thingie.
I've seen many metal core bands use it but still have no clue wtf is it supposed to be and why
@@ludens1472 seems to be bullet proof vests and during the dead stream, he was wearing chains as well. I think he was wearing chains in this too, but he’s moving around a lot so it’s hard to tell.
@@savjlunarose4557 ahh thank you for the explanation but that was not what I meant, I was talking about those gooish black substance concealing their tattoos.
Everyone's talking about Chris' hair but can we talk about how Ricky needs to direct more of their music videos? That was INSANE
Legit was gonna say the same thing, his directing is fucking God tier
Absolutely!!!
def!! i lov this music vid sm, too good too good !
Agreed!!!
HE ABSOLUTELY FUCKING KILLED IT BRO🖤
You know I really think Chris motionless is one of the best frontmen to come out of metalcore. The amount of energy he has is beautiful.
I have listened to this song about 2 million times and everytime I'm like "Yessss, do it again".... I guess that's what true love feels like 🖤🤘🏻
Am i the only one that thinks that Chris Motionless is PERFECT MATERIAL for an American Horror Story?
MIW fans need a new AHS season with Chris 🔥💥
Yes we need Chris for American Horror Story
It wouldn't be a MIW upload without AHS comments :P
Omg I need this now!
@@danhuff186 imagine Chris as the head of a cult with Lady Gaga omfg
Wait. Why does a blonde Chris look so good?
SO GOOD
YUP YUP
IKR!!!
Because its CHRIS
So is he like Christopher now Bc it makes him look whiter 😂
This song is legitimately one of the heaviest songs that you have choice to max your volume on . The intro , the rhythm power beats and that damn breakdown makes me wanna scream every day time !!! 🤘😈🤘
2:27 that bleugh is just 😮💨👌
Director: how much blood do you want?
Chris: Yes
Ha
It was Ricky actually he is the director
Z Blood!! 🩸🖤😍
You know it's going to be good when there's a warning in the beginning. 🔥
This
This song hits even after 2 months on repeat I swear lol. I wanna see them live 😭😭
Chris still gives dad vibes even when he’s sacrificing people’s hearts 🩸
True😂
More like daddy vibes 😍😍
@@Devilchild1997 i was gonna comment exact same thing😂
Facts he’s not even a dad😂
Lol, I see it.
i’m SO happy ryan was focused on for his “dont pray for me” part, they all fuckin killed it
RIGHT! i didnt realize it was ryan's scream for a while until i watched the making of disguise (album) video. when i realized it was ryan, my mind was blown
that’s legit how i found out he did that part too lol so to see him being hyped makes me happy. but that’s how miw has always been tbh. even when chris gets interviewed alone he still brings the other members to light and praises them. you just can tell they are best friends and want to make sure everyone’s treated as equally as possible
Ryan’s voice fits so well in this! 🤘🏻🔥
TWO YEARS AGO????? (As of seeing this) time fuckin flies man
2:25 would be the PERFECT alarm clock ringtone
So true xD 😆
True true
Can confirm I have not missed a single alarm thanks to this song :D
I 100% agree. We are now BFFs! lol
If the full song was my alarm, I would wake up, sing along and headbang, then fall back asleep when it ends lmao
Chris: Hey Ricky... whatcha got there?
Ricky, coming on set with a drum of fake blood: Smoothie.
okay okay can I just comment the way everything just flows? the way the drums, synth, bass, guitar, everything just flows so nicely
I love the break down so freaking much 2:28
Also the deepest and hardest I've ever heard as well!
The way it starts at 2:25 with "Open, your f*cking eyes!! BLEGH!!!" makes it perfect.
My Therapist: Motionless Jackson is not real he can't hurt you!
Motionless Jackson: 2:40
NO LMAO😂
Hahahahaha 🤣
this genuinely made me cackle oh my god
HAHAHAHAHAHA
*he's been hit by, he's been struck by, a smooth criminal*
Seeing chris act the way he does as the leader of the cult, he could really play a great Joker
Yessss
That would be incredible.
so true
Okay now that's something I'd need
I JUST THOUGHT THAT
The transition from one voice to the next is why I absolutely love this genre of music! ❤ my husband loves old school hip hop, and here I am screaming in the car listening to this. Lol they say opposites attract 🤪
My husband listens to classic rock and then there's me, lol mind you my tastes have toned down a bit, when I met him I was listening to grindcore like Norma Jean and Converge (I'm old okay!) but there's times where I see or hear him singing along to a Slipknot or any band I listen to and I chuckle bc he "HATES" my music! So glad I have a kid who listens to everything I do and have a concert buddy now that he's old enough!
also lets just take a second to appreciate chris' hair
Ricky: ok, how much blood do we want?
Chris: YES
Can we take a moment to appreciate Ricky's direction as a director, Ricky is awesome!!
His voice is everything..it blends beautifully with the riff
The chorus is a freaking monster, so good.
2021 everything will turn back to the normal
2021: blonde chris
🤣😂🤣
sim
@@anacarolini6867 apetitosa
I'm convinced Chris can wear literally anything and look good. Blonde suits him really well!
Pocas veces me sentido tan bien con la música, y más en los momentos duros de la vida.... Pero está banda es un respiro a mi podrida vida, hacen que quiera seguir...... Gracias y saludos desde Colombia
The best metal I've heard in LONG time, they are great individually and even better together....that doesn't happen very often anymore
Okay but can we talk about how Ryan screamed his part in the song?
We can most definitely talk about this
He needs to scream more
@@ReAdjust618 100% yes. And Ricky needs to direct all of thier videos from now on
Omgod yesss!!!
Chris is blond? Sheesh that looks so good
I never thought I'd see the day 2 surprises in one
i know right??? he looks insaneeeeeee
🤤 it looks dope
He looks like a Greek god hunting vengeance on mortals
i know right sheeeeeeeeeeeeeesh
I wish I knew of this band sooner. Vocals are Omg and just love their songs. I’ve been lost awhile where I just haven’t listened to music from personal reasons and one day on Instagram I stumbled upon a song randomly of theirs which blew my mind. Now I’m hooked. They are amazing 👏🏻 hope one day to see them live.
Discovered them last week myself. Wonder where they've been hiding all this time 😅
I totally can relate with you. They are amazing and on my phones since I've discovered them, but it's been only 3 months lol
Anyone else here after what happened in Texas? "Thoughts and prayers," indeed.
holy shit, when I seen Ricky directed this I was so fucking impressed.
One of my all time favorite songs! Long live Motionless In White ❤️💪🏼🔥
3 words... i love it
ive been a fan for years and im loving it more and more everyday cant wait to see u guys in 2023 in belgium
Gives a whole new meaning to the saying "Chris has my heart. "
😂👌
At least for the most part
Niceeee😂👌
Lmao 🤣
Hes so tall too ♥️♥️♥️♥️
MIW is one of a very few older Bands that haven't gotten soft over the years
I mean they still do soft songs and they still pull them off well.
Like slipknot did
@@jaredvoorhees8617 Slipknot isn't any less heavy than the other big mainstream metal bands floating around. They were heavier than MIW in their beginning and came down to normal heavy over the years. You can't honestly tell me MIW has an album as heavy as Iowa.
@@LEGiTdistortion their debut album
What’s funny is the last song I heard by them this heavy was called “Soft” ... they never went pop on us to appeal mainstream listeners.
The best song you guys have made so far!
I love your other tracks but this one hits so hard and so raw! I love it!
Seeing Chris dancing around makes my heart happy 😊 even if it's supposed to be kinda demonic. I bet they had a blast making this video.
CHRIS IS BLONDE THIS IS NOT A DRILL HE IS BLONDE!!!!!
Anyone else eargasm when Chris goes “BLEGHHHH” 🤤
he's one of the best at doing the "BLEGHHHH!"
Every fucking time!!
I straight nut.
@@wesker877 yesssss
@@lauralush23 One of the best? Can anyone do it better?
Always cheers me up watching this video on a work break when things are difficult 😞 don’t know what I would do without motionless in white
One of the best Motionless in white breakdowns
In my perception this video is a metaphor for people "pouring their hearts out" at religion and that same religion judging them by false means and destroying them internally. And only when it's late do some people of religion realize how harmful they've been to others around them and to themselves too. Thank you MIW for giving me thoughts and not meaningless prayers 🤟
Yes! I love the end where it's clear he didn't mean to hurt them. Ppl in religion don't even realize the damage they've done until it's too late.
Religion has always been a powerful tool for people in charge exactly because it targets people's heart and not mind. Has turned out pretty dangerous at times of history🤷♀️
To me the video seems less about religions themselves and more about religious leaders/representatives. You can probably narrow it down to only Christian representatives as well since I don't think the band members would have any experience from other religious communities, but that's just a guess.
its also an ancient Egyptian belief that leaving the heart with the dead to present to Anubis as payment into the afterlife. (paraphrasing)
Hate me all you want for saying this, but im a Christian, and yes I'm a motionless in white fan too. My religion has never harmed me but has always helped me. Not every person you meet is nice and I'm sorry if anyone experienced anyone like that. Most of us are very down to earth and just want to get to know you and help you through your struggles in life. A lot of times I dont focus on other Christians cause you can always find flaws in people if you wanted to. I cant say life has aways been good and fair to me. I just have faith and trust in god for it is what gives me hope.
Director: How blood do you want ?
MIW: Yes
Guys I know it's Ricky the director thank you 😂
Well the director was Ricky so that would make sense
How blood 😩
I was looking for this comment
:Slayer - bloodline
:Yes
chris has been the love of my life i swear to god since i was like 13 and now i’m 21 and nothing has changed.
This was my favorite band when I was a teenager for years (since city lights). I haven’t caught up in YEARS!. Mind blowing that they’re still this good. How many changes happened?!
Producer: *How much blood do you want to go with the white backdrop?*
Chris: *YES.*
@Nick Landrew Sir, who are you addressing with that *bad attitude?* If it's at me, I do not give a damn.
Blood blood gallons of the stuff
You drink and drink and drink
And it's never quite enough
🤣🤣🙏🏻
Lmao
@@MisstressMourtisha are you quoting my chemical romance or is it a different song
The amount of talent this whole band shows off is absolutely astounding
I love this song. It's such an masterpiece.
You've got me through alot of bad times growing up. Thank you ❤
Okay, but can we talk about Chris’s happy dance... I'm obsessed! Ricky needs to direct more of their videos because this was amazing.
Yes that happy dance is a mood
Yeah it was great and I love what he did to his hair
Chris: Sacrifice peoples hearts
People: Die
Chris: wtf?
XD
always read the manual book before sacrificing peoples heart
If you already know this then ignore me, I don't wanna be one of /those/ guys on the internet, but I don't think "sacrifice" was the intention here. It's a reference to ancient Egyptian afterlife mythology -- Anubis weighs the hearts of the dead against a feather. If lighter than the feather, they go on to the afterlife. If heavier, they get eaten by a crocodile (I think? Or crocodile god). So he's judging the hearts of the dead.
@@3n0d1a the comment is a joke so 😂
@@3n0d1a thank you for the backstory though
I literally just died after reading this 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m always lowkey jealous when I watch these music videos for metal bands like Slipknot, MIW, etc because it looks so damn fun
This is such an awesome masterpiece. How can anyone not love THEM. LIKE REALLY ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So for y'all curious, what's happening in this video isn't 100% just a random gore music video, let me explain a little bit 🙌🏼🔥
In egyptian mythology, when you died, you went to the "Duat" (the Realm of the Dead) as a spirit, where you were to be held a trial in the Hall of Judgement where Anubis (the God of the dead & cementeries) judged you and dictated if you were worthy of going to the afterlife and live eternally yours-okay sorry-and live eternally in egyptian mythology's equivalent to heaven/paradise, called "A'aru" or "The Field of Reeds".
The trial where you were judged worthy or unworthy to ascending to A'aru is basically what we're seeing in the video, and it consists in having you heart weighed against the "Feather of Truth".
(The Feather of Truth is the symbol of the goddess "Ma'at", goddes of truth and order. It's one of the strongest forces, since it was believed that Ma'at was the one who kept the universe itself in balance.)
The more good deeds you did in your lifetime = the less your heart weighs.
The more evil deeds you did in you lifetime = the more you heart weighs.
In the trial, when your heart was weighted against the Feather of Truth, if the scale stayed balanced or the Feather outweighed your heart. You were found worthy of passing into the afterlife and taken to Osiris (God of the death & the afterlife) and he welcomed you to the Field of Reeds to live eternally.
And if you heart outweighed the Feather. You were found unworthy of the afterlife and Ammit the Devourer would eat your heart and your soul would become restless forever. This was called "to die a second time" and was basically eternal nothingness.
Anyways, sorry for the huge comment, if you read the whole thing I'm glad you found this intresting, and hopefully it made the video a bit more intresting for you 😂🙌🏼🔥
I was just thinking about this when I saw him put the hearts on the scale. 👌👌👌
Finally someone who loves mythology as much as myself. I was thinking about all of that while watching this video. I loved the whole concept. It makes you realize how much they actually do to make these videos amazing
Wow, between this and Born of Osiris ancient Egyptain mythology is making a comeback and I love it haha
Was searching comments to find the meaning behind this. Thank you for the information!
Complete opposite of what Jesus did for us! The ONLY way into heaven is Jesus Christ no works needed ! Amen
Chris was only blonde until the video wrapped, he's a redhead now 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Funny 😂😂😂😂🙌
That cuz it's not really blonde.. It's bleached
Won't constantly changing your hair color damage your hair's quality?
My friend changed his at least 9-12 times and now his hair can even be used to sweep the city streets
Lol
Those drum kicks (❣️). My favourite part of the song.
Everything they do is amazing and when i saw them last weekend at rocklahoma i was ashamed of the crowd energy they deserved so much better. I gave it my all guys! 🤘
I'm just loving that happy dance while everyone gets covered in blood
We all needed this...
And wtf chris is blonde?!?!?!
Why are they just now releasing the music video?
@@BigSleep3750 they release the album but release music videos after and mainly cuz of covid can't complain about it though best music video I've seen
@@bushidogaming3253 they have some dank MV's but if I had to compare this to their other vids I'd have to say that creatures was top for me
@@BigSleep3750 They had to save up blood for 2 years to make this video.
They been sacrificed virgins for the past two years
Saving their blood for this video
THEY ALWAYS KILL IT 🔥🔥🔥🔥
First time listening to this band and they killed it 👌
first Kellin Quinn, then Andy Black, now Chris Motionless. Our emo fathers are recreating the Blonde Squad
Dont forget Craig mabit
This ain't emo lol
Don’t forget Ronnie Radke. He went blonde for a while!
Don’t forget Pete wentz and frank iero
Emo???
Wow to see Chris as a blonde white suited Joker fit him so perfect and Ricky did an amazing job and very talented. I'm so happy to see this band grow and get better every single time, seriously this band will never die!!
너무 좋아요😌😌
this video is so great the visuals are insane and motionless in white always deliver well with their music
THIS SONG IS BADASS LIKE MIW
I will never forget when Jacksepticeye donated a bunch of money during Vinny’s Twitch stream, he didn’t even know MIW, he just heard Vinny jamming and unknowingly helped them during covid struggles
Jack is also a drummer, they gotta look out for each other :)
To me this has huge slipknot vibes, the ambience of Nero Forte, but the anger of Disasterpiece. I think it’s a perfect combo.
The slipknot vibe was the first thing that came to my mind when I started playing the song
and a little bit of the negative one in the begining of the music
nero forte dont existed when that song out
I like slipknot but its mainstream edgy. Sort of like a sharp butterknife. I dont know how else to explain it. I definitely wouldn't draw the line between them and this lol.
this is one of my favorite music videos EVER !!!
I wouldn’t mind seeing scary blonde bloody Chris dancing in the corner of my room….
HAHAH fr
Without music
I would just say come play with me...
here me out... Chris covered in blood is hot asf. i also have a fear of blood so this is rather interesting
His dance moves are my favorite part 🤍❤️🤍❤️
Chris dancing is the best thing I've ever seen. He looks fkin' badass e.e
Fuck yea
