Motionless in White Team With Acclaimed Video Game Composer for ‘Scoring the End of the World’ Title Track

Motionless in White are a week out from their latest studio album, and they're now sharing the crushing title track from their upcoming Scoring the End of the World album. And the song features a guest turn from someone who knows a thing or two about scoring, as renowned video game composer Mick Gordon (Doom, Wolfenstein, Prey) lends his talents to the track.

Given Motionless in White's sound and Gordon's background, this pairing comes up with a song that is supremely epic. A crushingly brutal wall of synths is offset by melodic and at times soaring vocals that uplift and motivate against a lyrically dire setting. Get a closer listen and look at the lyrics below.

Motionless in White Featuring Mick Gordon, "Scoring the End of the World" Lyrics

Long live our symphony, in infamy, where dissonance remains
We score the final scene, adrenaline now coursing through our veins

Long live our symphony, this infantry survived a thousand suns
Silent they still attack, we fire back with notes instead of guns

We echo (and) reverberate
Then leave them behind
Fight!

Landmines composed in command lines,
Amplify or die, it's us or them
This enclave's tearing through the airwaves,
Screaming a war-torn requiem
Be not afraid

Trapped in hypocrisy’s cacophony, all tension no release
When it’s so hard to see the harmony, it’s time to end the peace
(So stop the peace)
Stop their choir, change their key
Hit back hard in our reprise
Bring their fanfare to its knees
And we’ll leave them behind.

Landmines composed in command lines,
Amplify or die, it's us or them
This enclave's tearing through the airwaves,
Screaming a war-torn requiem
Be not afraid

Don't fall back, orchestrate the fallout
Score the ending of the world on this battleground
Survive yet another militant strike
Half-dead, but we’re living up to the hype
Half-dead, as the speakers detonate like…

Landmines composed in command lines,
Amplify or die, it's us or them
This enclave's tearing through the airwaves,
This is our war-torn requiem

The dawning of a new age
These aren't just notes on a page
These are the weapons of rebirth
The dawning of a new age,
Where we will take back the stage,
To score the ending of the earth
We’re not afraid
