Emotionless
Red Rising Sun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're sculpture with a pulse
I wanna capture your essence and keep it here forever little one
And I feel good about you not telling anyone
You'll just lie motionless, emotionless
You're beautiful asleep
Motionless
You're beautiful asleep
You'll feel nothing as I send your soul away
How long will you last
And how long will you stay
As guilty as I feel, I'm making you beautiful forever
Until you rot away to nothing
We'll be perfect here together
I feel good about you not telling
I feel good about you
You'll just lie motionless, emotionless
You're beautiful asleep
You're just lie motionless, emotionless
You're beautiful asleep
'Cause you're falling apart
'Cause you're falling apart
At your seams
You are falling apart
You are falling apart
You'll just lie motionless, emotionless
You're beautiful asleep
You'll just lie motionless, emotionless
You're beautiful asleep
You'll just lie motionless, emotionless
You're beautiful asleep
You'll just lie motionless, emotionless
Disgusting now I see
You're falling apart at your seams
The lyrics to Red Rising Sun’s song “Emotionless” depict a disturbing and twisted view of beauty and mortality. The singer is fixated on the idea of capturing someone’s essence and keeping it forever, although it is unclear who this person is and what their relationship to the singer is. The use of “lips closed and eyes sealed” suggests that the person is either dead or asleep, and the line “You’ll feel nothing as I send your soul away” hints that the singer may be involved in the person’s death.
Despite the dark and disturbing imagery, the singer seems to find comfort in the fact that the person will never tell anyone about what has happened. The repetition of “motionless, emotionless” emphasizes the idea of stillness and the absence of life, yet the singer repeatedly calls the person “beautiful”. This contrast between life and death and beauty and decay is unsettling and emphasizes the singer’s twisted view of the world.
The final lines of the song, “You’ll just lie motionless, emotionless / Disgusting now I see / You’re falling apart at your seams” suggest that the singer’s obsession with the person’s beauty has faded, and they are now witnessing the disgusting reality of decay and decomposition. This shift in perspective creates a sense of unease and discomfort for the listener, who may be left questioning the nature of beauty and mortality.

Hearing the news that they’re going on indefinite hiatus has left me anything but emotionless. Red Sun Rising was truly an amazing band, and I’ll miss them greatly.

Joe Barnes This news breaks my heart!!! Here I am all excited today coz they released some songs etc, and for a week I've been playing RSR hard, and then I run slap into a brick wall?? I dont think I want to even know why yet, I'm still processing the bomb you just dropped, I've been a fan since the first album. This reminds me of when Disturbed did this too---and did I cry, just like I'm about to do now damn it!!! Thank you for mentioning it tho, I hadn't heard about it.
