Motionless In White - Holding On To Smoke (Official Audio) 

Basically it's about the inner struggle of being alive but not feeling like you are living , you are not wanting to commit but you are poisoned with depression. Even though you are depressed you try your best to stay positive but in reality you are barely holding on tired just always feeling like you are missing something. Hoping to find that thing you are missing but it's uncertain "holding on to smoke". Through it all fighting to tell yourself this isn't you.

THIS WHOLE ALBUM IS A GOD DAMN MASTERPIECE (Edit: how this got 1k likes, idk)

Too scared to live but I'm afraid to die So am I living or am I just alive? Damn, that one hit me

"In all my pride, All my shame I find strength enough to show you, I may bend but I won't break Cause I define who I become" I feel that

God this whole album is everything I thought itd be and more!

I'm so hyped for this album. MIW never fails to impress.

33 years old and i can’t remember the last time I cried listening to a song. Powerful stuff guys.

Never related so much to a song in my life. I'm crying

The way Chris sings "I just fuck it up" gets me every time ❤ Absolutely amazing song

Nobody: MIW: drops a song, never failing us

MIW is OFFICIALLY it’s OWN genre and OFFICIALLY my FAVORITE GENRE

"I may bend, but I won't break cuz I define who I become." When I hear those lyrics, they are just another reminder that no matter how hard life is, you gotta keep moving forward. Seize every opportunity and face every trial and tribulation cuz in the end, you will be strong enough to break through the chains. YOU define who YOU become. 💪💪

METAL IS ALIVE

I've never wanted to be someone's friend so badly 🥺 Every song hits me in the heartstrings and brings back things I've never finished working through. A big thank you to the whole band for the cathartic, screaming therapy 😌🥰

I'm tired of feeling comatose I've lost the me that I loved most I'm barely holding on to smoke I'm barely holding on to smoke I'm not addicted but I'm not clean Why do I do this to myself on repeat? So disconnected from my own reality Am I man or machine? If I give, will you take? As I lie for the taste I just fuck it up And you lap it up (Go) Through flesh and bone I walk alone (Go) If I run, will I fade away? 'Cause I don't wanna leave it behind In all my pride, all my shame I find strength enough to show you I may bend but I won't break Because I define who I Define who I become I'm just the me that I have not met Choking in silence on the words left unsaid I feel a sickness for a home I've never been And I exist in black and white but now I'm seeing red I built a shelter in complacency Locked myself in and set fire and threw away the key So scared to live and I'm afraid to die So am I living or am I just alive? All my pride, all my shame I find strength enough to show you I may bend but I won't break I define who I become 'Cause I'm tired of feeling comatose I lost the me that I loved most I'm barely holding on to smoke But I'm holding on, I'm holding on Broken, I'm holding on Chosen to right the wrong Silence, connected yet I feel so separated Falling through flesh and bone Frozen, I stand alone Chosen to silence, the voice remains In my eyes beneath my rage I was struggling to get through Out of time and out of faith I define who I become In all my pride, all my shame I find strength enough to show you I may bend but I won't break 'Cause I define who I Define who I become I'm tired of feeling comatose I've lost the me that I loved most I'm barely holding on to smoke But I'm holding on, I'm holding on I'm tired of being human, tired of being numb I'm waiting for the holy ghost to come So save me from the webs that I have spun I'm holding on, holding on I'm holding on, holding on to smoke

I was in need for slower metal songs and MIW delivered 👌

"I'm Tired Of Being Human Tired Of Being Numb, Waiting For The Holy Ghost To Come." I'm Getting that Tattood.

I'm tired of feeling comatose I've lost the me that I loved most I'm barely holding onto smoke I'm barely holding on to smoke! I'm not addicted but I'm not clean Why do I do this to myself on repeat So disconnected from my own reality Am I man or machine If I give, will you take?

I'm holding on Driven! To right the wrong Silent! Connected yet I feel so separated Fallen! Through flesh and bone Frozen! I stand alone Deafened! In silence the voice remains Behind my eyes, beneath my rage I was struggling to get through Out of time and out of faith I define who I become! In all my pride, all my shame I find strength enough to show you I may bend but I won't break 'Cause I define who I Define who I become 'Cause I'm tired of feeling comatose I've lost the me that I loved most I'm barely holding on to smoke But I'm holding on, I'm holding on I'm tired of being human, tired of being numb I'm waiting for the holy ghost to come So save me from the webs that I have spun I'm holding on, holding on I'm holding on Holding on to smoke!

"I just f*cked it up" just hit me like a lightning! So much emotion in it, I just can't! 😭

Man, I love the new album. SO beautiful choruses, I just can't stop listening. Thank you so much for this masterpeace MIW!!

Of all of MIW song, this one really hits me most. It describes my life perfectly. Depression, anxiety, self doubt. I basically live by going through the motions.

Love this album so much so far it's awesome.

“Im tired of being human, I’m tired of being numb” Damn

2:21 , the Breaking Benjamin influence is at its stand alone strongest. Chris makes this shit sound so beautiful.

Those lyrics are so powerful...I think this is the first song I feel like I can relate to.

They've really grown so much in the music industry. Trully amazing. MIW never let's us down as fans.

I'm so proud of this band because they come so far like really 💜🖤💜🖤 Love the album!!!

2:20 Sounds like the chorus for hopeless by breaking benjamin😍😍😍

OH MY GOD!!!!! I'm so in love with this songgg😭😭😭💜

"Connected Yet I Feel So Separated" I felt that.

Chris is the younger Corey Taylor, such great vocalist, now we need a Slipknot and MIW collab

You guys have matured so beautifully through the years. You’re basically MILF’s of music at this point \m/

They definitely took time with the lyrics first Loving this 🤘🏻

2:22 Reminds me of Hopeless by Breaking benjamin

Nobody: Still nobody: STILL NOBODY: Miw: comatose

It’s like Breaking Benjamin & MIW had a baby. Classic BB vibes on this one. 2 great bands and I cannot get enough of this one 2 years later

I’m not addicted but I’m not clean!!! Relate to that!!!! I love you guys!!! I would love to see y’all at a Concert!!! I’ve never been to a actually concert an I’m almost 30 lol. But I love you Chris motionless!!! I relate to you and your lyrics. Biggest fan!!!! MTW!!!! Thank you for keeping me sane

"I'm tired of being human I'm tired of being numb I'm waiting for the holy ghost to come"

This album hits hard. They've outdone themselves with Disguise, and I love them even more for this. There is already a whole tattoo sleeve planned, dedicated to the lyrics out of the songs of MIW that mean the most. The centerpiece will be this song.

The whole album is perfection 🔥

Shit hits like a ton of bricks. Fighting for your life while your empty inside is truly something else. Our will to live is fascinating

This song hit me really fucking hard, struggling to stay sober and not relapse is something I'm dealing with and this song is just... mood as fuck

As a terminal stage 4 colon cancer patient I needed this song so badly!!! Thanks guys for this one and I’m from the 570 area as well!

This song give me goosebumps and make me want to cry happy tears

A song quite literally about our own personal decadence. That we indulge in to hold onto some morsel of a good reality we can live with. Smoke we barely hold onto.

I'm feeling a poke of old Motionless, as well as some Breaking Benjamin. Nice to hear

Motionless in benjamin...its insane!!

Una auténtica obra de arte Arriba Motionless In White 💀👌

like if motionless in white is underrated

I love Chris's voice. He has an ability to write my life lol. I love these guys!!!

I didn't think Graveyard Shift could be outdone. 🤯

This song is really hitting me right now. Exactly how I'm feeling right now

This is so beautiful. It always gets tears to my eyes and I don't why. But this is amazing. You know a song is awesome when it effects you physically.

In love with this song! 💙

Duuude, what a song!!! Dammit!

I no ive said this! This is the CULMINATION of MIW!!! Hitting so many "genre's" on This amazing album!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💚💜💚💜 #miwarmy #creature

MIW always has sticked to it’s sound, and they’re continuing to impress!

their best album for sure!

What an Album! Masterpiece from start to finish. #MIW #Disguise 🖤👌🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

I'm getting some breaking benjamin vibes on this track and i love it!!! If y'all didn't know that's one of chris's favorite vocalist

You speak straight to my heart.

I bet it's the same guy who gives a thumb down on every of these awesome songs. It's always this 1 thumb down

My goodness this album has been so much more than i thought it would be and damn I'm loving it so much!!!

Def my favorite.

💀💜💀💜I'm truly thankful

"I will not bow! I will not break! -BB

I absolutely focking love it

MIW did well on this song. i love chris voice

End is a huge throw back to the first two albums. Amazing

This song is absolutely my favorite. I love you guys.

In the world exists rock, metalcore, nu metal, heavy metal and motionless in white.

Can we apriciate so much how under so simple title there is such a deep song?! Chris is awsome in whriting lyrics. Real talent and poetry. If He was not a singer i would just pay for his book of poems! I would sleep with it and cry)

Had my three year old niece head banging so that’s a thumbs up from her lol. A thumbs up from me too! This is awesome, guys. 🖤 Always are achieving above my expectations. 😍 Never disappointed.

Love listening to this on my last day of school so I can enjoy the album all summer long!!! 🖤🖤🖤

shrek is life !!!!!!!

One of the best songs I've heard in my life

This have spoke to me in many levels and I'm thankful for this lyrics.

It’s got the vibe of breaking bens new album and I love it a lot. Never let us down motionless 🖤

Eerily beautiful.

I absolutely love this album and this band. This song and Disguise are the two songs that really hit me right now.

This is why I love electro -rock, it gives you some abstract feeling that you cant fully recognize and you just vibe with it

Y’all play in my hometown weeks after I ship off for Army bootcamp 😭 Yall’s music has kept me sane these last few years and I can’t thank you enough for staying true to yourselves and expanding your music. ❤️❤️

This song makes cry every single time. I don't remember a single time I cried to so many songs on one single album. It's like you all ripped the words right out of my heart. Ryan's screams just gives it that extra kick in the gut and then I'm on my ass and sobbing like a baby.

Thank u god, this year is totally the comeback of the G(old) rock n' roll. DIG!!!

Cara o crish tá sempre em dia com os vocal dele o cara e MT foda

My favourite of the new album :D

The best songs ever

Motionless in white is an unstoppable band! This song is proof of their talent. MIW fan forever

Everything they make is amazing

Can't wait for tomorrow.

Brutal.

Song of my moment in life.

que orgulho!

Favorite song of the album so far! 😍

First 30 seconds hits home, last 3 min 44, hits the heart.

I really don't get all the bad reviews this album is getting. I love it guys! Amazing!!

Holy hell guys powerful lyrics and a great sound to compliment it without sounding repetitive 👏👏👏

Tired of feeling comatose I've lost the me that I loved most. Damn that line gets me. This song is in fact about me. Thank you MIW. Great song. My new so g

Listening to this several times with tears in my eyes. Chris is just awesome

Motionless In White has done something amazing. They've said fuck the mainstream and stayed just how they should be, and how they love being, and how we all love them. All the feelings from Creatures and Graveyard Shift are amazing, and I love them so much for this. I'm beyond excited to see them in New York. Some of my absolute favorite people, you are, and you'll never leave my playlists. Been here since the start of Creatures and I haven't regretted not clicking on something sooner. You guys are just incredible.
