About Motionless and White

"Motionless and White" is a song by Eighteen Visions, and was the final single from The Best of Eighteen Visions. "Motionless and White" became a popular underground hit in parts of the UK and Western Australia, but undoubtedly the most successful in California, it ended up peaking #98 on the US Mainstream Rock Charting System. The song addresses the theme of drug use and reads as someone attempting to persuade a heavy user to break the addiction, and it possibly inspired the highly successful Three Days Grace single "Never Too Late". "Motionless and White" was often the closing song of Eighteen Visions' sets, up until the release of their album Obsession. The title of the song inspired the name for the band, Motionless in White.

Sit down and shut up so I can sing you your fucking love song.
Yeah so sit down and listen to me.
I've got something to say.
You took that line with too much pride.
So sit down and listen to me I've got something to say.
I'm not gonna let you die.
The money's on the table baby.
The lunatic sits on the glass.
Emotionless and white.
Just sit back, relax and hold tight.
You're not the big shot anymore.
It gets worse.
You've taken this too far.
I say I should give up on you.
I say I'm giving up on you.
He makes the cut long and wide.
It hurts to breathe.
Your suicide.
So where's your lonely cigarette?
'cause it's time to come clean.
You won't have the last laugh.
So chalk up that line and hit it hard.
Now can you feel the rush?
That rock hits hard.
Hits hard as hell.
Now I can see why you left.
The taste there was all too good.
And that gloss across your eyes is just shining way too bright.
No one can help you anymore.
Could you come back down?
Would you come back down?
