Mortal Remains Lyrics:
--------------------------------------------------------
I am digging deeper into the dark sand
Cold and wet earth in my bare hands
A desperate undertaking, it is all I have left
I cannot live with this unbearable pain in my chest
I do not care if I am disturbing you
Oh, I know I am filled with greed
Finally I found you, I need to feel whole
Oh, my love, I am here to take back what you stole
Somewhere in your coffin, I am searching for my soul
I do not care if I am disturbing you
Oh, I know I am filled with greed
You disturbed me ever since you left me here to bleed
All I have found are your mortal remains
Lying on this dirty ground
Where are you now? Where are you now?
I cannot feel you around
I do not care if I am disturbing you
Oh, I know I am filled with greed
You disturbed me ever since you left me here to bleed
Fun fact: Blackbriar never do bad songs
I know right, I just clicked the video and liked before she even started singing becausr I knew it was gonna be good😂
So true
Written law of the universe
*quickly knocks on wood*
Did I hear an Amen?
PERIOD!
Now, kids, this is why we learn _healthy_ coping mechanisms instead of digging up our dead lover's corpse.
😂
I laughed so hard I was crying
😹
No
But, but... I got a really good talisman and spell (I ran an anti-curse on them) from that old lady with the odd eye at the market...
Can we just talk about how good Zora's acting is in this video? You can really feel how enraged and saddened she is when she opens the coffin in hopes of seeing that loved one again, only to find a corpse and nothing else. No light in their eyes, no soul in their being, just mortal remains. Whoever was in that coffin is truly gone. Anyone who's ever lost someone knows this feeling. It's heartbreaking! Brava, Zora!
Wow, thank you so much for your compliments and kind words, it truly means the world to us!!! Thank you, Kitty!
Her acting is great in every video, ever since "Until Eternity", although I think my favorite is still the switch from utter rage - to the satisfaction that her delicate lady brain is soon to have - in "I'd Rather Burn". It's a subtle little twist that I just love.
This song was on repeat when I lost my mother. It was so nice to have the anxiety, pain, grief and anger channelled in a song. Just having the feeling "I want to see them again" is so painful, like being unable to accept they're actually gone.
There are not many more beautiful things as red and black. And autumn leaves? Gravestones? Beautiful sad girl? Pure Gothic! Love it. And song has some Gothic metal vibes too.
Thank you so much for the compliments!!! 🖤
My inner witch is very grateful for this
🖤!!!!
She is like a siren. Everytime when I hear her voice I need to listen her again
KEENING ALL THE WAY!
most beautiful siren!
@@cathedral_of_sin Definitely 😊
🖤!!!!!
It's addictive
Why do I really want all her music videos to become a series?
That would be awesome
THEIR music... Blackbriar is more than just Zora!
Imo you know why most people go insane?
Because all that, anger, rage, sadness, despair, love and angst... in most people have no talent in expression through art or music.
It just bottles up inside twisting and turning, becoming a maelstrom of emotions until we eventionally explode into insanity or deep depression. Rage destructively against the world or spiral down into self destruction.
However sometimes people are born with a talent of self expression in art, books, music...that they can share their stories with the rest of the human race where some people can find sweet release in the beauty of another's creation.
Honestly artists of all types save more people's souls than they realise, even if they are only trying to prevent or repress their own insanity.
I agree
Beautifully written 🖤
Well anyone can make art, they just dont believe they're good enough or Don't care to.
I feel like, the message, is that she went back to her old dead self...
A part of her died when the person that she gave her soul to left (be it by walking away or through death). And she tries to find the part of her that died, in hopes that she will feel whole again if things go back to the way it was, if she had her old self back. Only to find that she can't go back, and will forever have her innocence, joy, and warmth torn away from her, and can never have it back.
Or I got it wrong. I didn't want to read in to the obvious message, but how this video spoke to me in it's own way.
🖤Still an amazing piece of art!🖤
I'm a simple man, I see a new song of Blackbriar, I click.
🖤!!!!
I feel like Zora would be a good actress. She does such an amazing job of conveying her energy and emotions in all of their videos.
I agree and for some reason when i first found them, that i felt she could be a great actress.
So true! Her expression right after she sees whats in the coffin .. just wow
3:20 makes me cry so much.
2:53 is my favorite part because of how cinematic it is. Shes using all her strength to see her lover again, even though, deep down, she knows hes gone.
It really gets you when you have lived it.
I don't think anyone can make dark look so beautiful as you do.
Thank you so much for the compliment, John 🖤
I am a simple girl. I see, I click and I liked of everything of Blackbriar!
Thank you so much 🖤!!!!
I may be straining here to find an association but I swear it feels like this is connected to Until Eternity. Like a solemn ending to the story where her loved one has passed and she feels she cannot bear anymore. He is apart of her soul, being soul mates and all, and is desperately trying to find that bond again but cannot move on. Not to mention when she lays down at the end it reminds me of the opening of Until Eternity. Making this feel, to me, like it has come full circle.
edit: As well as the dates on the tombstone. I didn't catch that before!
Me at 2 pm to my neightbours:
'Iiii don't cAaare if I'm distUurbing yooOu'
I feel you .
when i was little people were telling stories about a dark lady that roamed the cemeteries at night digging into graves... some would say she was a vampire or a corpse eater... i couldn't understand back then but now i know that someone took her heart and she was just searching for it
Wow!!! 🖤
It's so dark and also sad, I'm speechless, absolutely in love with this song. I'll be waiting for the new EP 🖤🌹
Thank you so much, Belu 🖤
I believe the video is about not being able to or not wanting to know/see the truth, and not until you are shown the truth do you realize the lie you placed yourself in from the start. I love this so much.
Blackbriar fighting!
Thank you so much!!!
Am fully convinced Zora was a goddess in her past life. Thank you for gracing us with this beautiful, haunting and absolutely magical voice.
Thank you so much, Millevenon
I really enjoy the way she sang very softly this time while the instrumentals in the backround were more intense than usual.
Thank you for the compliment, Adaja 🖤
To be honest, my first girl friend died in an car accident. So this song rlly rlly touched me in "deep and dark places."
I guess this song is gonna be one of my favurites, it reminds me why I didn't gave up back then.
So, awesome song! 🤘🏾
We are so sorry to hear that. Thank you so much for your message and for sharing that with us, Michael 🖤 It truly means the world to us!!!
There needs to be a movie about different fairy tales and blackbriar needs to make the entire soundtrack
I found this song 4 years ago. During this period, I experienced the death of a loved one. And therefore I can say with confidence that this song very clearly expresses the strength of those emotions: loss, sadness, anger, resentment.
We proudly present you our brand new song and music video called “Mortal Remains”, we’ve gone deep and dark with this one. Let us know your thoughts and feelings in the comments below.

Yay!❤♥
BlackbriarMusic I love it! Great job! 🖤
So glad that I got the notification on this.
Dark and beautiful. Everything I’d expect from Blackbriar! Love the video. Keep up the great work. If only you would tour in the US 🖤❤️🤘
Nu alweer verslaafd aan dit liedje. Kan niet wachten op de rest van het album.
Zora's upper range is chilling and no one sounds like her. it's shrill but clear and full, not thin. Beautiful song and voice ! Well done EVERYONE !!!!
Thank you so much for the compliment, Patrick 🖤
@@blackbriarmusic
I prefer my sopranos on the dark side *tonally*, though she's got other meanings covered, for sure.
Very deep and dark leaving you with a soulful longing of a fading memory. There is sadness, desperation, anger, and rage before the grief and loss in this song. All the grief cycle of losing another. An excellent video to go with this song since the same emotions are echoed within it while sharing her actions and reactions portrayed in each phase. The last part where she lies on the ground makes you feel her emptiness as full realization sets in. Beautifully haunting.
Thank you so much for your beautiful words, Damian 🖤
I dont know this girl, this is my first time listening to anything by her but I'm in love and her voice is honestly beautiful
We are happy that you like it, Shu! Thank you for your message!!
I lost my husband suddenly a month ago. This song speaks to his I'm feeling. He's been cremated so there is no coffin for me to search for my soul. But all in the same...I feel this song deeply.
We are immensely sorry to hear about your loss, Laura. Thank you for your message, it means the world to us
I can relate, lost my wife in September 2020, same deal too, cremation, you are not alone in how you feel. This song really hits you when you have gone through what we have.
There are songs that make a difference in our lives, their strong message fills the void and says the will that lacks us from a reality. Sometimes it's enough ... Listening to understand that a story is not just a story. Blackbriar, I always get goose bumps on the way you work and demonstrate to us, fans, the authenticity of a work done with love and thought. Your old-fashioned, stationary style makes us want to be part of that story and perspective. It is because they are what they are that makes me your fan and more than that, your follower. One day, wherever you are, I will sing your songs up high as I see you performing.
Dear Reine Erica, your beautiful words mean the world to us! We feel honored to have you as a fan and it means the world to us that you are still with us and supporting us, thank you! 🖤 We hope you will like the rest of the new songs as well and we are looking forward to the day where we get to see you sing along during a show! Lots of love, Blackbriar
Blackbriar is my favourite band.Blackbriar is my everything.
The voice of Zora can go deep inside ours souls, and her expressions carves a place in our minds.
The song is wonderful, and she's unique...
Beautiful, charismatic and delicate in her own way.
You've somehow managed to replicate how I'd probably grieve on the day my mother leaves this world.
This is as profoundly beautiful as it is sad.
Amazing.
Love it!
Thank you so much for your message, it means a lot to us 🖤
I discovered your songs a year ago and since I listened to them, I got enchanced by Zora's voice (she sounds like an angel singing) and with the "feeling" of the group.
While I was listening to it, I remembered my best friend. She died 7 years ago, and the lyrics of the song described exactly how I felt.
I can relate most of your songs with some moments in my life.
You're amazing!
Wow, thank you so much for your message, Laura! It truly means the world to us and we are terribly sorry to hear of your loss
Not only are the songs always good but the videos are cinematic masterpieces.
BlackBriar has an amazing ability to take me to other dimensions with a simple excerpt of the song ... a simple but wonderful melody ... but that sounds in my ears just like the singing of a mermaid attracting an unwary sailor ... I CAN'T STOP LISTEN!!!
Thank you so much for your beautiful words, Ramison 🖤 It means the world to us!
My holy soul, this is pure beauty. I am digging deeper... I hear it singing in my ears and can't stop restarting it when I am home. Come to us to Russia, I will dye my hair and be the loudest in first row) Tender kisses, I feel your love)
Thank you so much for your kind words!!! Hopefully, we'll get to meet you in Russia one day soon
Me: *Trying to sleep*
My Dog: “I dooo nooot care! If I am disturbing youuu!”
My cats*
😂😂😂😂😂😂🔝
🤣
Sounds like my dog lol
Me to my cats
I lost my husband, this made me cry, well done!
I lost mine too. It’s unusual to be a young widow these days. It’s lonely. This song is beautiful
I have no words, The emotion, uniqueness of Zora voice, truly magnificent no matter how many times I've heard it. Much love for you guys.
Wow! Thank you so much for your kind words, it truly means the world to us!!
This is one of your best work. And for my subjective taste, this is your best work. Grief, pain of loss, despair at face of irreversibility. Expressed deep and powerful, with painful weird beauty.
I lost my significant other to cancer just last month and I have to say, this song is beautiful and the video is very well done. You captured the emotion of losing someone close to you very well.
Indeed, and I am sorry for your loss. Mine was near to a year ago from cancer as well.
We are so sorry for your loss, Alicia. Our deepest condolences
It's so dark...I love it that there are still awesome bands like you guys who make awesome music like this!
We are so happy that you like it! Thank you for your message, Haroema
Zora, you inspired me, you inspire me everyday! Im love to hear your voice, so, please, never stop singing!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Raihime 🖤 It means the world to me!
Reminds me a lot of Wuthering Heights! Amazing song! 💕💕
Thank you so much 🖤 Wuthering Heights inspired me to write this song!
This is seriously enchanting like always. I can't get enough
Thank you so much 🖤
Zora's voice is truly amazing, but frankly the whole music is pushing it and both sound gorgeous together.
I actually cried watching this, I love this band so much.
Me too.
Damn i just woke up and i'm listening your new song while drinking coffee, good to start the day like that ! I absolutely love it. Can't get enough of you, Blackbriar!🥀
We are so happy to hear that!!! Thank you for your kind words, it means a lot to us 🖤
Damn, Blackbriar did it again - what an amazing song!!❤❤
Thank you so much, Matilde 🖤
One of the few metal bands with gorgeous videos and esthetics, there are no cheesy scenes or costumes. Keep up the good work!
Wow! Thank you so much for the compliment, that means a lot to us!!!
Hauntingly Dark and Beautiful ...you have done it again
Thank you so much for your kind words 🖤
Дуже давно так не торкалося душі. Щось справжнє, глубоке.
Це одна з моїх улюблених їхніх пісень)
It's very dark but so beautiful..😭 How can I love something so dark? You always do an amazing masterpiece, thank you❤️
Thank you so much for your kind words, Desirèe 🖤
The Until Eternity and this Song is a full Romance story.
Good point. Just don't put Arms of the Ocean in the middle.
I am so glad I found this band I really love Zora's voice
I love her voice. She’s so beautiful too! Please make more songs like this!
Thank you so much, we are happy that you like it!!!
I'll keep repeating this song so many times.. Omg.... What happening to me!! Loved blackbriar
That's amazing to hear and it means a lot to us, thank you!!! 🖤
Death is weak and we are strong...
I love this topic and the song is just great
We are so happy that you like it! Thank you!!
This forest must be important for your music career 😊
Hahaha! Absolutely!
I almost expected zora to find the grave empty and her beloved to emerge from behind her as a vampire or zombie. Also towards the end, as she fell on the ground I was totally expecting a hand to rise from the grave and hold hers. Though the video still turned out to be pretty amazing the above-mentioned twists would have added a good touch to it. Anyways I am totally in love with you guys, keep up with the blissful work!
Haha! that would've been awesome indeed! We are happy that you like it, Ananya! Thank you so much for your message
@@blackbriarmusic Oh my god you just made my day. Thanks a lot for the personalized reply !!!!!!!!!!!!
I have never lost somebody so close to me and yet it feels like I know the agonizing feeling represented here.
Ikr
Its just like this...
I hope you never truly experience it.
Reminds me of Wuthering Heights where he digs up her grave and then tells her to not rest and haunt him till he dies as well.
This song is inspired by that exactly!
@@blackbriarmusic It is one of my favorite books.
If this song had come out before "Until Eternity", it would have made perfect sense. For it felt like the continuation of a story. This would be the denial behavior regarding the loss of her loved one and the other would be the acceptance and realizing that despite everything in another life they would be reunited again.
The Acting, The Singing, The Clip, The Music And Her Beauty, Wow What a Band. Love It
Wow! Thank you so much for the compliments, Peter! It means a lot to us!
OMG THIS IS AMAZING!! I liked everything the lyrics the video the massage the instrument EVERYTHING!
AS ALWAYS BLACKBRIAR NEVER DISAPPOINT ME!!!
Wow! That's incredible to hear! Thank you so much 🖤
AMAZING representation of grief!!!!! This is beautifully done!
The first Blackbriar song I heard was until eternity and then I got obssesed and found every song and now I love Blackbriar and this son is amazing I love it and the video is beautiful. I need more Blackbriar. Greetings from México.
That's amazing to hear!!! Thank you so much
Always give me inspiration for writing
You are not alone!
That's amazing to hear! Thank you, Rose 🖤
I'm not crying I swear. It's just these spicy noodles I'm eating. That's it. No tears. NO TEARS
I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil. - Gandalf
🖤🖤🖤
Oh, this pain... My heart is crying.
Love you, guys.
We love you too
Gothic princess
I knew well exactly what she'll do, but still her doing it shocked me to the core. You were right, you went deep and dark with this one. It is a masterpiece.
Thank you so much
нереально тяжело слушать эту песню. особенно, когда эта боль, о которой поется в песне, знакома не понаслышке😢 помню, когда она только вышла, я ехала в трамвае. и включив ее, едва сдерживалась, чтоб не расплакаться. не хочу выглядеть очередным нытиком, но песня очень сильная. хорошо, что есть такие песни, которые напомнят нам о тех, кого с нами больше нет. ведь это тоже важно...
I like anything Blackbriar does !! Zora does do really good videos..she's a natural actress..she does such a great job making videos, a lot of her videos have That Forest..I lived in a forest that looks EXACTLY like that forest, and My boyfriend passed away there too when we lived there...so I can really relate to her videos.......
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing that with us, Loretta! It truly means the world to us 🖤
Zora has such a beautiful voice
Thank you so much for the compliment
This what i'm waiting for!!
🖤!!!
When you can't find peace with your loss, Digging to the bottom, wanting it all back....but then realizing that all this dwelling and digging isn't worth it. the lyrics hit hard :( I love this band so much, their music is fantastic.
Goed gedaan iedereen, blijf zo doorgaan!
Heel erg bedankt voor je lieve woorden
Love your voice, always very beautiful. As for the contents of the song I love how well it encapsulates the full depths of greif and denial, having lost some of my closest friends it's refreshing to hear a realistic take on loss and just how truly darn and consuming it can really be.
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot to us
Blackbriar means : Constant Quality !!!! ALL The songs are Super Good !!
Это прекрасно!
🖤!!!
I think it beautiful and very heartbreaking. I love it! But I think this is not as dsrk as I'd Rather Burn . I cannot not wait to hear more songs from you guys. Stay awesome!
We are happy that you like it, Samara 🖤 Thank you!!!
Your voice and your hair... Unbelievable... 🖤
Thank you so much
I hope the neighbors won't mind that this is gonna play in a loop until the EP hits :)
Wow! Thank you so much, that's amazing to hear!!!
So glad I randomly found this band and donated to the first album, so worth it. Keep up the awesome music and come to the USA soon.
We really appreciate your support!! Thank you for your kind words, Desire
Beautiful song! I love the high notes, not always easy to do. Fantastic songwriting
Thank you so much for your kind words, Jen!!!
It sounds like a mix of I'd rather burn and Stone cold body and I'm HERE FOR IT!! 💞💞💞
We are so happy that you like it! Thank you 🖤
i just got the best idea ever: let blackbriar do a song for the tv series "salem"
Sounds great, haha! 🖤
Your voice is enchanting, Zora🌹 My Fiancée recently passed away and this song, and your music has really helped me to cope, Thank you 🌹🖤💔🎧🎶
Blackbriar's songs are all so hauntedly beautiful.
I didn't know that Grave Robbing could be romantic.
All I could think of when I saw this was the Graverobber from Repo the Genetic Opera.. definitely not romantic, but he does have a cool voice!
But I agree- the desperate sort of grief here does have a sad romance to it.
I am absolutely in love with this band, such a unique sound, such a dark vibe, I can't stop listen to their songs. Love you so much Blackbriar! 🖤
PLEASE DON'T STOP DOING.... THIS.... MAGIC! ❤️
Твой вокал прекрасен. Твой вокал погружает в грусть которая заложена в этом видео, и эти ощущения не передать. Каждый раз когда я слушаю эту песню я вникаю в этот пронзительный крик одинокой, несчастной, брошенной души которая потерпела невосполнимую ни кем потерю
@alisia lewis остались ещë русские нормальные люди а ни эти реперы
@alisia lewis в этом и вся проблема написания комментария. No speak English
Я не про неë а про людей в целом мало кто слушает такую музыку сейчас время такое
@@user-xd6rl8si1q+
На мой стрёмный вкус, это одна из лучших работ группы. И песня/музыка, и клип в целом.
Это отчаяние, эстетика необратимости и падения, боль, но одновременно тонкая, болезненная, ненормальная красота переживаний, это то что надо.
Zora and all of you are perfect, keep doing what you do please. Humanity needs it.
The vocals, the instrumentals, the video. 🖤👌
You've got a new fan on your hands ~
+1
Wow! That means the world to us, Silver!!! Thank you
"I do not care if I am disturbing you" reminds me of the story of when Odin summoned a witch from her grave and she only wanted to rest but Odin wouldnt let her until she gave him the answers he was seeking
Oh sweet Odin.. that’s how he is 😂🤪 he be like “yeah yeah you can go back to sleep in a minute- AFTER you enlighten me!”
The acoustic versions are so awesome. Nobody has a voice that compares to Zoras'. Think I'm in love.
Now remember children: if your old dead lover and his coven steal something from you, always resort to digging them up and breaking into their coffin.
Love your music Zora and Company!
So, is that the one who died in arms of the ocean that she is digging for?
Could be
👀
Yes but it is alright because she will love him Until Eternity
