I've been wanting to make a song about Helluva Boss for a while now, and doing an album about monsters seemed like as good an excuse as any. The biggest reason though is that it's currently one of my favorite shows of all time, and I simply can't get enough. One of my favorite dynamics in the dysfunctional world of the show is the afterlife marriage of Millie and Moxxie, which inspired this particular song. It ponders Moxxie's perspective as a clumsy and conflicted demon, appreciating his deadly partner in sin.

Lyrics:
I deserve to be here
But no one could deserve you
You're an intervention
A hallucination of truth
When I need a fix-up
I feel you in my veins
You're the spark I needed
To start a whole new flame
Straight into my heart
I am blown apart
Like a bullet to my brain
You tear the world away and
When it goes to shit
I can take a hit
'Cause you're here keeping me sane
A spirit like a storm
With you I'm reborn
At the bottom of the chain
It starts to look like heaven
Cut and bleed me dry
Take another life
You're the killer of my pain
Ripped apart by something
Inside me left from those days
Walking with the earthbound
I'd rather be in your gaze
You're the one elixir
Laced with the sickness I need
And I'm gonna take you
When my affliction bleeds
Straight into my heart
I am blown apart
Like a bullet to my brain
You tear the world away and
When it goes to shit
I can take a hit
'Cause you're here keeping me sane
A spirit like a storm
With you I'm reborn
At the bottom of the chain
It starts to look like heaven
Cut and bleed me dry
Take another life
You're the killer of my pain
Risking life
I will never let go
Never let go
And while you're kicking ass I'll be there kicking too
Through the blood and strife
We will do what we know
Do what we know
Like a rose's thorns
On your hellbound horns
My thriller
Painkiller
I'll let you in to cure me
Even if it's gonna hurt me
Straight into my heart
I am blown apart
Like a bullet to my brain
You tear the world away and
When it goes to shit
I can take a hit
'Cause you're here keeping me sane
A spirit like a storm
With you I'm reborn
At the bottom of the chain
It starts to look like heaven
Cut and bleed me dry
Take another life
You're the killer of my pain

You know, I never would’ve associated this song with Helluva Boss, but in retrospect it makes a ton of sense. Incredible work and incredible music like always!

[@Katzztar]

It makes sense the song is associated with Team M&M too, given how in love they are with each other. The song fits those two assassins.

[@HenningsEdits]

If you look up the album sampler for Modern Mythology on the Aviators Archive channel it'll tell you what each song on the album is inspired by.

My thoughts exactly. It would not surprise me if Spindlehorse, the production company for Helluva Boss, finds a way to woek this in eventually.

He canonically composes songs to sing for Millie, so if Avi and Viv agree to it, it could actually be canon.

Synth Rock AND Helluva Boss are two things I didn't think would mix together, but somehow, this genius did it... The afterlife may be dysfunctional and filled with cutthroats and maniacs, but Moxxie and Millie's marriage holds true, even in the most dire of times and this song captures that feeling perfectly. No matter the pain that either of them go through, their true love helps get them through it...while they keep doing what assassins do best! Amazing job, Aviators.

[@johnnyd.1004]

First Teeth, now this? The Lovecraft and Bloodborne songs are still my absolute favorites, but I'm really enjoying these new synth songs! Note: I just heard the bridge, and it was breathtaking. You can really hit those low notes! You're definitely at your best when writing about things you like.

Let's go another song from the one and only Aviators!! Love this vibe from this song I love the synthwave from you and alternative rock 🤘

[@smugbowkid9919]

Of course, Aviators knows how to put out a song I’m sure to like, and I definitely wasn’t expecting it to be this. I love the idea of Moxxie being conflicted too.

[@WolfoxxReactions]

This song is underrated in the Helluva Boss community. It is very amazing and deserves way more views. Let's get it too 1 mil or more!

AWESOOOOME, THANK YOU, AVI!!! 😍 Moxxie and Millie are, indeed, absolute relationship goals... 🥰

[@Katzztar]

I love both Aviators and Helluva Boss. I never expected one to make a song about the other... but I LOVE this surprise! Esp since Team M&M are my fave characters. Sure I love the entire cast, but the married assassin love-birds are at the top.

[@scrollkeeper5272]

Now a Helluva Boss song?! Avaitors is really delivering!

[@UFG_Studios]

I think my favorite thing about Aviators music is that at first glance you can associate it with one thing and then later find out it's inspired by something else and then your mind says "That makes sense." I had no idea was a Helluva Boss song. But it makes so much sense as one.

[@AnimatronicBadgerlord]

Every time I hear this song, at the lines "Strait into my heart I am blown apart"... I can't help but hear a hint of Planet Wisp from Sonic Colors. It makes me smile. This is such a great song. I didn't know it was linked to Helluva Boss until now, but damn if it doesn't make sense!

[@thelovelypenguin]

Actually, it reminds me of Aquarium Park.

[@simonurban7668]

This is my comfort song, even though it has been out for only 5 days. Goddamn masterpiece.

[@triplej26532]

Had a feeling this song would relate to Helluva Boss. An amazing show on KZbin by Vivziepop for those who have not seen it yet that's made for mature audience. Season 2 is planned to start at the end of July. Moxxie and Millie are a great afterlife marriage pair after all. Especially when other devils bully Moxxie, Striker tormenting him or get eaten by a beast Millie comes in to save the day. Truly a great pair couple of Imps.

[@tylercufflin4139]

Likewise man. Just the whole tone of the song made me wonder... that and the "And while you're kicking ass, I'll be there too" line.

[@kyleveihdeffer7642]

Yup! Although its not Moxxie and Millie's afterlife. They were born in hell.

[@26th_Primarch]

Those two are relationship goals and nobody can convince me otherwise.

Not even sure if it is a sad song about addiction or a happy song about love and hope. Either way it is awesome.

I took it as a song about two demons who are addicted to the violence of killing but are deeply in love with each other.

A year or two ago I learned about the concept of comfort characters and never really fully understood it, and then I saw Moxxie and Millie and instantly knew that I finally understood. Which is to say that for me those two imps are truly Painkillers Amazing song as always!

[@bobbertsonlarz1743]

Honestly I love that they made Millie a defacto southerner from her voice and marital mannerisms. I love my southland, and I'm glad others appreciate the beauty of our people and how we speak. Definitely a well written comfort character.
