"Paralyzed" is dance-infused rock song making for one of the more intense moments on my most recent album, "Let There Be Fire." Lectro Dub came on board and took it even further with his gritty, visceral vocals and lyrics! The lyrics portray a fantasy hunter and a cold-hearted monster locked in combat, both on their best game and enthralled with a skilled battle. Instead of the usual monster hunter's perspective though, this song is held mostly in the eyes of the monster itself. Playfully deadly and intelligent, the war has come to the lair of this beast and it has been preparing.
Lyrics:
So I know what you've been thinking
That you're the only thing that's lurking in the night
You aren't safe within in the shadows
'Cause tonight begins the hunt and you're in sight
Moonlit eyes under still and haunting sky
I can see within the soul you've stowed away
Tend your fire, draw this cursed evening's ire
Try your odds and you just might become the prey
That adrenaline rush when weapons fly
It's the fear that brings out that body high
So you know that I'm stuck here paralyzed with you
In a midnight clash of circumstance
At the mercy of my inhuman hands
I will bring myself to see this challenge through
It's a stalemate
In a twist of fate
When you're face to face with death itself
Grounds of battle where no heroes dwell
For a light thrill
Or a cold night's chill
You will be this hunter's golden prize
If you leave your guard down, paralyzed
Wicked traps are set around you
Not a lantern lit in sight to guide you home
You've been looking for the danger
And you sense my presence chilling in your bones
Take your stance, I will give you one fair chance
So let's make this dance a bloody masquerade
Understand how this ends, and what I am
You're against the night itself, so be afraid
As the darkness takes the light
Shadows crawling through the night
I will let you take my hand
But I hope you understand
That it's always been the same
Bringing thunder with the rain
But you shouldn't be afraid
Of the games they like to play
Every moment left alone
Gets to feeling more like home
Leaving chills under your skin
So let's start to settle in
Through the multitude of eyes
Taking shapes under the skies
Aren't you curious to see
What kind of monster you've set free
You try to scream but there's no sound
Try to hide but you'll be found
You'll be next to bear the mark
From the tendrils in the dark

A fight to the death really is the ultimate dance. You haven't truly lived until you've nearly died. Time seems to slow as the adrenaline takes hold, and your senses are magnified manifold. Eventually the rest of the world ceases to be - there's only you, your opponent, and the rhythm of your own heart beating in your ears.

See, I am totally imagining this ancient monster who has seen so many hunters come, and go, that they're almost bored of it. So he tries to make it fun.

"Paralysed with you", "it's a stalemate", "you will be this hunter's golden prize _if you leave your guard down_ paralysed" - a slightest mistake in this state will turn the tide.

[@jewelbennett5446]

[@xshullaw]

The combo here feels odd at first, but it actually blends excellently. The background music tells me that this is an epic dance, with a dangerous lull and sudden intensity where all the action is centered. The lyrics tell me the progression of two hunters, each carefully maneuvering and attempting to outwit each other until they are confronted in abrupt and lightning-fast combat where a single mistake will be their end. While it may sound strange that a battle between a cosmically powerful being and what we can assume to be a human or superhuman Hero would be paced like a dance, I very much disagree. Because to me, this sound like a hella funky Bloodborne boss fight. Starting at 4:00 there's very humanizing lines, where the Monster seems to understand that the Hero is afraid of It and why, so It tries to tempt them to join It. The offer is gone as soon as it came, of course, and the Monster immediately goes back to threatening the Hero and claiming that It has already won, thus leading into the final battle. And that's why this it works. How many Bloodborne fights have you been in that did not, in some way, feel like a brutal and bloody dance. Jumping in and out of attack, playing it safe or rushing in boldly with a decisive blow. The main line further supports this, that if you freeze for even a second, the Monster will instantly end you, leaving you as the prey. And I, of course, am always up for an exhilarating dance with the darkness.

[@melatyonas4874]

To be honest,I agree with you. 😂

[@sir_fuckwit]

[@Owls1221]

I'm actually writing a linguistic descriptive analysis of this song. And your statement seems interesting. Can I use your comment in my essay? (my professor allowed me to use social media comments as sources for literary criticism 😄) thought I would ask

[@Nempo13]

I think you missed on that part at 4 min in. That whole thing isn't the monster. It is the HUMAN taunting the monster. "See what kind of monster you've set free." You do not back a human into a corner unless you are prepared for that fight or flight response to swing so far into fight that even being disemboweled isn't enough to stop them from fighting and killing. The most monstrous of foes is not the dragon. We know it's strengths, we know it's weaknesses. No, the most monstrous of beings is the human. For there is no depths it will not go, no highs it will not chase, no just cause it will not follow, no lengths it will stop at to achieve victory. No deed is too much or too far to contemplate for the human. What you consider unsporting, the human considers as common practice. What you consider as absolute horror, they willingly plunge into. Why else do they spread plague and disease, salt the earth, destroy entire ecosystems just to win a single battle? Trust not in you claws, your size, nor your hardened body... for the human, that most cruel and wicked existence has a multitude of ways around it.

[@ratjam5882]

This song... this song... it gives me chills. I heard this album when I got back from the last day of school. I sat down in my backyard to get the atmosphere right for listening. Throughout the album, I found a ton of songs that I absolutely adored. But the *moment* this song came on, I felt something so strong coming from it. I marveled at the intro before it got to the best part- the bassline. I couldn't help but have a huge smile on my face when I heard that. I loved it. So. Much. The melody came in, and I was thrilled, and I was never let down throughout the whole song. I love this song so much. It's my second favorite song EVER, right next to Psychoactive. This is now my go-to song whenever I get an anxiety attack or have urges. It soothes me so much and it gives me, for some reason, this feeling of nostalgia and freedom that I can't describe. Hell, I started crying when I first listened! Avi, you'll always be my favorite artist since you can create stuff that lets me feel like this. Thank you. Also, this song always reminded me of something from Resident Evil, most of the time RE4. Not sure why!

This song completely turned my mood around. This beat is exhilarating!

[@bumblebot2458]

Nothing like a new Aviators song. Good work you two!

[@glowcitybluei.s.195]

Your songs are the perfect inspirations for the books I'm writing.

[@bethgray1562]

Oh? are they like a fanfic type thing or are you just taking ideas from them?

[@seijitheicedrake9487]

I seriously want to see an animation with this song! It is great 💛

[@yonkapala]

This is my summer jam, perfection.

[@pahnazd]

You had me the second the bass line started. I absolutely love this song - great job!

Last edited 3/2023 A tiefling boy walks through the streets of the outpost town, the only bastion of humanity for a dozen miles in the surrounding wilderness between kingdoms. The traveling circus his parents performed in had just been slaughtered by a great beast. Only he and the knife juggler's son made it to the town alive. He approaches everyone that looks like an adventurer, begging for help and sobbing out what happened. Most push him aside; some kick and call him "fiend spawn" or other slurs. The juggler's son gets brought to the orphanage (who can resist a halfling face with tears welling up?), but he gets rejected; "no room" with an empty bed by the window at night, "not enough food" when everyone gets seconds each meal. He sees what's really happening. "No room" for a tiefling, "not enough" for someone who doesn't look like them. He won't rely on the grace of the uncaring. He'll take what he needs straight from those that drove him down this path: straight from the adventurers. He's made it several years without getting caught. A few brushes with "the law," but hatred fuels adrenaline more than a missing coin purse does and every alley is an ally to one who knows the way. It doesn't hurt that overpaying the shopkeepers makes allies with backdoors. After one easy escape, the victimized adventurer grabbed an innocent tiefling teen passing by, mistaking her for the thief, only seeing race, not even male and female. She's confused as she tries to defend herself, but their grip is unyielding and their other gauntlet swift. She falls. She doesn't get up. They search her body unceremoniously, but don't find what isn't there. They walk away angrily and don't even look back, leaving her body there. He follows them and they go drinking at the tavern with the party, paying with borrowed gold. They're laughing... after killing an innocent... and leaving her body in the street... they're drinking... and LAUGHING. He bursts into the tavern and shouts, calling them out. They draw a sword and the whole party chases him out. He heads down alleys and uses every foolproof path he knows, but the party follows, never letting up. He gets chased all the way out of town. He'd only ever come in the gate before, never out. He has no choice anymore; this town could no longer be his home. He runs into the forest, leaving his pursuers. He weeps for the slain innocent. He screams out for mercy, for fairness, for justice, for revenge. To the final cry, he hears a response... a voice that sounds like him, but without the humanity. A voice granting power. The forest town is safe from monsters, but no longer is it because of adventurers. Adventurers are the only ones not safe in the surrounding area. Adventurers get hunted. Word has spread of the monster that only kills adventurers and that has drawn hunters to seek him out. He kills them too. This time will be no different. 0:35 (So I know...) This hunter, this... ADVENTURER thinks they're top dog out here in the dark forest. He waits patiently, watching them through the darkness, unseen. He can tell that they're confident of their skill, but they'll be just one more trophy. His eyes are well adapted to the dark and he can tell that they're expecting an ambush and waiting to counterattack. Perhaps they think the fire will keep him away. It will not. He attacks, not from directly behind, as they might expect, but from a rear angle. 1:10 (That adrenaline rush...) Swords are drawn in an instant and steel clashes against steel. Both combatants, tiefling and human, freeze. This is the adventurer from all those years ago, the murder who walked away and laughed. He loses his composure and throws all three swords across the fire. He punches and claws them, seeing only what they did to her. They manage to push him off, each opponent's hands gripping the other's as if to crush the very bones. Eyes locked, he knows that THIS night is the last night he will seek vengeance. It won't be easy, but just like with her, it won't be fair either. His crowning achievement will be won tonight. 2:04 (Wicked traps are set...) Humans have trouble seeing traps in the dark. The two shove off from each other. They grab their swords and he summons his to his hand. He moves from the campfire into the dark forest. They sheath one sword and take a piece of firewood as a torch. They seem uneasy, then take a defensive stance and move into the darkness. He springs forth for only a moment at a time, leaping back into darkness before a proper counterattack can be mounted, leading and driving them where he wants. They stumble into a trap and manage to fall flat before a log swings over them, narrowly missing. 2:40 (That adrenaline rush...) Another burst of clashing swords. The makeshift torch dies out. He moves in bursts on the periphery of their senses to disorient them. The skirmishes have only been swordplay and preparation until now, but the time has come for warlock tricks to come out. He uses a Vampiric Touch to inflict new wounds and ease his own. Now with restored vigor, he speaks into their mind. "You're nearly beaten, but I need you specifically to know why I'm doing this." He starts recounting every aspect of adventurers that he hates. He calls their memory back to that day in the outpost, how they killed the girl they thought was the thief. He tells them that this is exactly why killing them will be his crowning achievement. He shares that they are the reason he's hunting adventurers here. They fumble around in their pack before striking a proper torch to life. They stand and look around in silence for a long time, mentally preparing for the inevitable... 4:00 (As the darkness...) He engulfs them in magical darkness, forcing them to leave the clearing. He pursues, stealthily, crawling under foliage at times. He can see that their resolve is nearly broken, as he's broken every adventurer's resolve out here. He lets them hear the rustle of bushes and the snap of branches. He sees them jump at each sound and flail their torch at the darkness. He casts Mirror Image to surround his foe from out of sight and steps closer, preparing to settle back into pursuit. 4:26 (Through the multitude...) They see the circle of glinting eyes staring back at them. They stumble in retreat, forgetting the torch in their panic. He and his mirror images step forward and he reveal his fiendish face in all its wrath. Their mouth is agape in an attempted scream, terrified by the vengeful horde. They repeatedly hide behind a tree or in a bush only to be found immediately by a mirror image, driving them to lash out and find another spot. He releases a barrage of magical tendrils upon them. They fall back into a bear trap, which breaks their leg, but they manage to pry it off. They arrive back at the now smoldering campfire, starting to regain their calm. 4:53 (That adrenaline rush...) He chooses this moment to reveal himself from the shadows, drawing his sword. The final bout of combat doesn't last long, one side is crippled and frightened nearly to death and the other filled with ferocious determination. They're left disarmed, at the mercy of his tiefling hands. They beg forgiveness, apologize for wrongs, and offer all that they have for their life. He cuts them down anyway. He doesn't care whether or not he's as bad as them. They were guilty; she was only guilty of being born different.

[@polynuclear2970]

Just write a book already please!

[@FlyingDominion]

@@polynuclear2970 I started to once. It was just some notes and paragraphs from different parts. Then I realized I sounded like someone trying to sound smarter than they are and I had no idea how to connect things to make any of it work, so I didn't bother moving it over to my new phone. Sometimes you need to go for it. Sometimes you need to pull the plug.

[@MadRockerGirl]

this was awesome to read, it gave me some needed inspiration for my own campaign i was stuck in a writing block so thanks =]

[@darth_dan8886]

Really, only 11 people read it?

[@FlyingDominion]

@@darth_dan8886 I wrote this nearly 2 years after the song came out, so most people don't read this far down into the comments after this long. Thanks for being one of the few who does.

[@zomboynkush113]

Does anyone else hear mystery skulls songs? Love all of the songs aviators, please don't stop making amazing songs like this

[@UrsineBloke]

FINALLY! BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ON KZbin, MY FAVOURITE SONG IN LET THERE BE FIRE! You're a fantastic artist ans so is Lector, I'm so happy that my ears can be blessed with this glory!

[@codyosborne9307]

I want more songs like this one! I've tried to find other songs in your work similar to this and can't! But this is slamming!

[@hourflower]

Brilliant song!

[@vibereightore1591]

Ok so, I've had phases where I really love a song, and listen to pretty much nothing but that song, we all have. This song though makes all those other ones sound like nails on a chalkboard. It's actually the most perfect concoction of audible stimuli I have ever to date bore witness to. I cannot stop listening. Help

[@mrlafoste68]

that is awesome ! i keep listening to it since 7 days and i can't stop !

[@spartanwar1185]

A sweet groovy song glorifying a gruesome yet epic battle!? Exactly what i've always wanted! Awesome! Can't believe i didn't find this sooner!

[@JasonSoul91]

I can relate to this concept so much, this song touched my heart fully. I am a very creative styled want to be author and artist. This, this is beyond a master piece and my favorite song I have ever heard.

[@JasonSoul91]

I have to ask too, May I please put your artist name (Aviators) in the cover of my book (special thanks page). The entire book was made and is being made off of the concept of the reader being the beast. It would beyond be an honor for you to allow me to.

[@Sul_Shadw]

after hundreds of listening, only one word left : masterpiece edit BEST AVIATORS SONG

[@NevermoreTitan]

3RD Favorite song from this album!! Love the bass and everything!!

[@SilverPXGaming]

I remember when I said last year, how awesome it would be if you and Lectro would collab again, and now I see (well, hear) this AMAZING song 👌🏻 This one has got to be my favourite on the Album, it’s been on repeat ever since the release 😅 “Aren't you curious to see WHAT KIND OF MONSTER YOU’VE SET FREE”

[@tablesthetablegod]

i've been listening to this song since it came out, almost every week at least once, y'know? and every time i come back there are more comments with their take on the song, so i think it's high time i return that sentiment, since i do listen to this song a lot when i'm writing. this isn't a dance battle, the catchy beat and the lectro really shine on that but in reality this is no dance battle, it's a battle dance. who knows how long it's done this, the beginning of time or, perhaps, not even a month. but it's always the same, a valiant hero comes to kill the monster and make this blighted world slightly brighter, and every hero rushes forward so sure of their victory. who can say how many have fallen but this monster rises each night with the same sickly tune in it's head, these poor souls don't understand a thing. it's no more a monster than those heroes are now alive, without a voice of it's own yet haunted by the voices it's claws have rendered from flesh, no matter how many times it screams and pushes against it's very nature, these heroes know nothing, and neither does the monster. maybe it's fate, maybe it's coincidence, the ones lucky enough to escape the first time aren't as gifted the second attempt at battle. and so the monster dances, moves it knows well enough to slumber on, dodge and swipe and bite. it's always the same, it's a monster, isn't it? if all these heroes want it dead then surely it is in the wrong, how could it be anything else? alas, who can say, neither hero nor monster is willing to pray to find out. and so it dances with each new hero, their strategies always so predictable. it wants to hurt these heroes, but it cannot say why. it can only struggle fruitlessly at it's own nature as it continues the path before it. the encounters are like clockwork, the hero arrives and realizes their end is near, and the monster fights with all it has to an end nowhere in sight. both stand paralyzed in the realization nothing that they do will change the course of their futures, and there they stay, paralyzed in their own thoughts of freedom from the whimsical dance both are naught to escape.

[@ShadowkaDarkeno]

I was looking for this song forever 😅 So happy I finally found it

[@chemtest4481]

Always a pleasure to hear the new Aviators song

[@josephthebear7072]

I've been trying to find a song to play Dragon's Dogma to. And this offly reminds me of it. Keep putting out the awesome music my man.

[@catmask1123]

I found this song and... it makes me think of my character who is an experiment with no memory of his human days hunting down and killing the man who created him. Best part, he's the prized experiment because he's the only one of the hundred or so monsters to have a human base and was designed to be their commander and caretaker. This means they follow him both because they can't not and they don't want him to be punished, so now that he's escaped and against the man, they are all free to rebel.

[@doublem1354]

Interesting...... is there any place it is possible to read/buy the aformentioned story?
