Lost in time, The Hunter gives a dire warning from the centuries she has seen: History repeats, and each conflict of the past keeps coming back. Civilization ignores the mistakes of their ancestors, and the pattern continues on into the 21st century, as she watches the dark future unfold.
Lyrics:
I begged
the world to heal its scars again
As I cried into oblivion
And the victims passed me by
I said
The curse has kept us spiraling
While the desperate keep on rioting
And the greedy plea with lies
One more summer
And yet another
While the more things change they stay the same
Apathetic inaction
Is gaining traction
While the lost don't play they lose the game
Don't fade out, we'll go off script
The last scene's behind our silent lips
We're signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Seen the first act
Of a hundred stories just like yours
Through the history of an endless war
They've come back
Signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Seen the first act before
And I wept
For the future of humanity
To be free of this insanity
Where the lessons learned repeat
I sent
A message to the least of us
That the greedy are carnivorous
And that hatred fears defeat
One more summer
And yet another
While the more things change they stay the same
Apathetic inaction
Is gaining traction
While the lost don't play they lose the game
And our eyes consume the world today
Just as if the past has been erased
So don't run away, don't run away from time
There's a cycle of our symmetry
As a sign that history will repeat
So start looking back, start looking back to find
All the tragedies we've tried to mend
All the selfish acts with violent ends
We don't learn a thing from conflict
So it finds us once again
"history's doomed to repeat itself if we don't learn from it"
this song takes that message to the next level!
Unfortunately it seems people have watered it down so bad some people forget the tragedies of our history
@@inquellthemediocrenot even the tragedy. They try and change the people in it too.
@@greatjagras6381 Sadly it would seem we are doomed not just to have our history forgotten but have it stolen from us.
How is that this song predicted the next five years to come.
Your music is the best help for depresion a man could hope for
You're so fucking right
You're right
Agreed!
It's quite wonderful to hear that because this is a pretty depressing song... It talks about how humanity just never seems to learn from the past and allows the worst kinds of problems to continuously come back because no one ever seems to learn from it all.
That said, I adore this song and I find myself adoring a lot of his depressing songs too so who knows.
@@demsterclippy4252 Huh, I imagined it more like Mr. Aviator was using "we" along the lines of "hey man, I'm in this with ya" and the unseen act refers to the fact that most struggling people have their struggles never seen by others, but this time (the sequel) the struggle may/may not be seen.
This is the kind of music that speaks to me. Just a brick in the wall of confirmation bias based observations on my part that remind me of what's going on in my life, and my changing perspective on it. The cycles of learning, dying, and relearning. Either society as a whole, or just on my life, where my loneliness is a horrible cycle of learning to accept help, growing detached, and needing to fix things again last minute.
This is the kind of resonance with a song that just makes you wanna animate it even if you haven't animated before just to get it out of your head. The wheels turning on your bike, cycling over and over, driving you forward on a road you can't see in a land of towering neon where everyone has their own lonely road on the bigger wheel, and eventually it zooms out enough to where the world is turning and it resets its cycle the way the rest of the wheels would have many times.
God, that sounded a tad pretentious, lol.
Thank you, Aviators, for the beautiful jam for my soul.
That was beautiful, well done
It's a veery common cycle
i feel the same way humanities mistakes are bound to repeat the only people who will be ready are the citizens of darker times (took that line from a different song of his) i just hope after covid 19 passes people will actually try to make a difference in the world whether it be through music or whatever else they think is good
@@austinevans1703 at this point in america, its an if not a when sadly
THIS is the track i've been waiting for ever since Godhunter was released.
*Don't fade out, we'll go off script
The last scene's behind our silent lips
We're signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act*
Seen the first act
Of 100 stories just like yours
Through the history of an endless war
They come back
Signed on for a sequel
But nobody's seen the first act
Oh my god the VHS effects on this are fucking beautiful, I love this so much
the same effect was in the video to Holy Ground
Each song you make just gets better and better, not to mention I have never followed and watched one person's music for so long. I practically found your music in middle school I think and grew up with it in high school and graduated with it.
Same lol
Recent find for me but DAAAAANG
@@jukehero461 same
Ahhhh, a nice Aviators Synthwave! Been a while, but still as good as ever! Can't wait for the sequel!
This is the sequel, to a first act that no one's seen before.
@@ryaku5 it's a pun... or at least a weak attempt at one
I’m certainly signed on for it
ryaku5 but nobody seen the first act has seen the first act of a hundred stories just like yours!
Aviators Rock to World,
to build a better world,
to save us from the bleeding sun,
and the Ascension of the Dystopian fiction.
If there's no more Heroes,
then Aviators you're Monumental,
Save us from the fear who keep us paralyzed,
Cause you're writing on the walls.
If we're losing control,
you're not gonna to run away,
telling us ''signed for the sequel'',
And the Godhunters gonna to take revenge,
Until it's gonna be game over,
but you will let burn the fire again,
And wake up when it's over.
So Aviators rock the world,
to build a better world on the ashes of the past,
keeping writhing on the walls
by your messages and your songs,
be immortal by your bulletproof behaviors,
cause Legend will made on the ashes of the past.
Hope if there is a end in this game,
we gonna meet you at end.
I wanted to write this composition inspired by all your work aviators,
All the song I liked so much, but, too much is missing, cause love so much of your composition.
So thanks you for your song Avi.
I wonder if he would try and make this a mini song just for fun
Aviators could you make this a song?
Wow... You took words out from my mouth that i never even knew how to say
Whoa
Can Avi please pin this? It's too good
My favourite song of the album by a long shot. Love the rhythmic feel to it, but the lyrics are the best. "Signed on for a sequel, but nobody's seen the first act..." That's a really nice way of saying we should (and need to) learn from history.
My favorite song off of a Godhunter. SO catchy and fun!
Listening to this song as I ponder the turning of 2023 into 2024. Dates that seem unreal written out, dates like those old futuristic media I've loved would be set in. Is this setting one of the 'good' futures of my childhood, or the 'bad' ones? Which direction does the 'plot' seem headed? Why do my answers disquiet me, and how do I fix it?
The world seems a mess, in peril from a thousand human-inflicted injustices and tragedies. It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the sheer _sin_ of our resolute refusal to learn from history.
But hope does exist, that we can find understanding and peace with one another once we learn the lessons of history. Each new year provides us with a new opportunity to learn from the cycles, in some way, small or grand. The grade will repeat until the lesson is learned, too late for some of us, but not for others.
All we can do is try to make use of the opportunity given, and grant our own New Years Resolutions; the only kind of wish we are provided. So here's to peace, kindness, understanding, responsibility, and mutual support in the new year (and righteous anger where necessary to bring those things)!
Well said. Or written in this case.
Avi I can't believe you bought all those cars and buildings just for this lyric video
@@fermland8371 whoosh
@@fermland8371 wooooooshed on that one
A Small price to pay for perfection.
@@joeld.k.7652 Consistency
The story of the Hunter is such an interesting one!
If you wrote a book on it I bet there would be a ton of people who'd buy it!
Myself included ^^
I try to work on it.
@@TheFrommie86 How's the book going?
@@OkamiSun1 Still working on it.
Since the Story around the Hunter and the Bleeding Sun Universe as a whole will still be continued by Avi, I won't be able making much of a Progress since I want my book to fit into the Canon Lore nade by Avi.
Ya know?
@@TheFrommie86 Oh yes I understand that. But hey it's great that you're still working on it! I look forward to reading it someday. I hope Avi likes it too :)
@@TheFrommie86 local fella just straight lies
back to 90's
90 LIKES!
happy coincidence :)
Fitting song for Part 2 of the Gaming Market crash. ;)
gotta go back :)
80's
Yep. This is about how I feel about 2020, and now the first week of 2021. 2021 really is the sequel we weren't looking forward to.
How unfortunately that it is now a trilogy.
'20: Covid + racism + brexit + trump
'21: Covid + partygate
'22: Covid + partygate + war + food shortage
In summary: We have Plague, Death, War, and Famine. We also have Kaos*. So we now have all the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, we just need the Apocalypse...
*discworld reference, sorry not sorry
I've loved music my entire life and there have been a lot of artists over the years that I've loved, but Aviators has completely taken over my playlist. There's such a wide range of styles and all of it is fantastic. I really hope you get the acknowledgment that you deserve - consistently tremendous content. All time favorite artist.
Retrowave is in my blood.
And in your profile picture
and your nickname
lol
@@adenentertainment7365 (late) hewwo
@@Peak_Antelope oh hai
god damn how can you still be underrated?
it's imposible
Definitely the best Aviators song so far: production and mix is cleanest yet, best lyrics since stargazers, likewise instrumentals are in top 3 aviators tracks easily. Finally a true testimony to synthwave!
This represents 2020 as a whole.
more like 2021
Hopefully i don't have to come back and say that you both didn't wait for 2022
@@tiredtraveler4536 you could say we'd be signing on for a sequel
Heading for world War 3 in the coming years
@@sillyputtyisfun7567 Nobody has seen the first act before
You are legitimately my favourite musician. I will never be tired of listening to your songs.
And the song makes sense. Makes you think about your mistakes ...
Okay, I have loved a lot of the new songs that have come out recently, but I swear to god, this one song is seriously one of my favorites... ever. I've been stuck with it for months now and it never gets old. Thank you for this masterpiece.
Next to "Way of the Strong", this is my most favorite song you made. God, I don't understand why you have not more subscribers. Your music is so awesome and I've been listening to it almost 24/7 for several months now. It's also great to listen to while writing new stories and such.
Your music is just so unbelievably amazing!!!!
I'm suddenly a teenager again . Very 80s electro new wave. Brilliant lyrics and a great production. Another favourite.
Can never go wrong with Aviators and Synthwave. Gonna be listening to this on repeat for weeks.
As we gear up for round two, let's look to history for answers. Things like this have happened time and again all over the world. This is the reason history is so important! Let's get ready, everyone!
Best song on Godhunter, its PERFECT
This song is so good, such a pity that I've only found this hidden gem recently.
Never thought I'd like Synthwave till I found Aviators. Great song!
same here
I feel the desire, the desire for revolution, feels like a wake up call.
Song never gets old. Still listening to it till this day & beyond
I don't comment here often but man
Your work is so fucking awesome, each of your music's just take my ears and brain to outer heaven
You're my favourite music artist !
Keep going !
OHHHH YESSS, Signed on for a Sequel!! :D
Gotta say, this one's my 2nd fave of the Album (First one being Whenever It Rains)!
I really like the bridge, it contains so much truth.
Lyrics and themes like this are what hooked me on your music years ago and this song reminds me of that every time I listen to it.
Thank you for writing music with meaning. Even if it's to add to a fictional narrative, these lyrics still carry weight.
what a bop this one is. i love it.
With each passing year this message gets increasingly more important and clear.
I hope we can turn the world around before it’s too late.
Signed on for a Sequel is out! Beautiful work as always!
Oh dear. Looks like another sequel again. I'm getting tired of waiting for the situations all to end before I start to live, and now I face the terror of having to figure out how to start a life after putting it off for years AND in dark times.
Another day, another wonderfull song, which fills me with so much emotions. I can't say, how much those song have grown on me. Thank you for the wonderfull job, you're doing.
Those screen effects make me happy
Reminds me of older TVs in simpler times
(And the city view is also really nice)
*That moment when Aviators uploads a new song on your bday*
Me: OMG YES, Perfect timing! Awesome work! :)
Happy cake day
@@imzulhu7545 the cake is a lie
Happy birth anniversary
Lol
Happy Birthday! I hope it's a good one, and I hope the sequel's even better!
happy birthday hope you have a good life
This song makes me feel , a mixture of sick and sad, because i know this song holds true for humanity, given leaders, corperations, current and past.
This video is amazing :0
I think this song sums up what Avi does best. Catchy af songs with a great message. 💙
This and Whenever it Rains are my favourites 😅
Absolutely
I love the 90's, I love synth, and I LOVE THIS CHORUS. Holy cow, it's so...complex and catchy and meaningful...
Seriously, Avi, you're too powerful for this world.
Q: Is there a bad Aviators song, at all?
A: No.
The worst aviators song is still a good song.
10 points to griffindor
dont look far into his upload history
@@Alexander59059 I don't mind the pony shit, if that's what you're vaguely hinting at.
Still good shit.
@@Alexander59059 Some of my favorites are his early songs.
My favorite off of Godhunter & favorite Synthwave song from you, Avi! Just pure retro goodness, catchy lyrics, & that signature synth solo is just amazing
The best song in the album, you can listen and listen.. It is as if a long pleasant journey.
Good job!
Pleasant?
Dude, is this your first time listening with the vocals or something?
Aviator's synthwave is just top notch. Always amazing to hear more of it.
i Wasn't a big fan of Synthwave before. But since I've discovred Aviators, I listen to all his song with it.
still here from your mlp days my friend love your music so much
That thing has super intense energy, it's unbelievable.
And once again, amazing work!
I love your synthwave themed songs! They are wonderful
Really cool, moody and catchy song! 😎👍
Lots of nice little synth-melody-hooks everywhere, great mix and just very genuine heartfelt music, it seems to me. This track has some real soul behind it. BIG thumbs up! 🤍
Now I know it for sure..You are a truther!
I love this song! Can listen to this all the time 💖
This track is far my top favorite cause it has a lot of 80's and 90's vibes and I loved the VHS old effect, which made me feels like I'm watching my old favorite movies back in my early childhood! 😍
I missed my old days where I had a lot of VHS!🥲
Well, that song has never been this relevant after this week
This made me smile. It’s too true today.
This is another great song from Godhunter! I love seeing all these get uploaded, especially with all of the background images/videos that accompany them. This is probably my second favorite song from Godhunter after Pop Cult Crucifixion. I really hope that gets uploaded soon, too. I'll keep this one short since I don't have much to say aside from this song being amazing. I hope everyone who reads this has a great day, and I hope you all keep listening to Avi for years to come! :)
I just got back from school, and this seems like the best way to enjoy a Tuesday afternoon.
and another beautiful song by one of the best musicans on this planet (pls excuse the spelling mistakes if there are any)
I'm a simple man, I see Aviators + Synth, I like
I really really love the album. I don't get tired of it no matter how many times I listen to the songs on repeat.
There are many songs from Aviators that I absolutely love, but for some reason, this one is just so catchy, it stays on the mind and I'm never not in the mood for this song and it never fails to fill me with a wonderful feeling of motivation
Has to be my favorite song from this album
Still amazing as always!!!!!! Godhunter is an awesome album bro! Thank you for what you do!
whee early for once to listen to yet another amazing song
even turned up my headphone audio! great work as always, avi
Most usually post a message on social media or make an article about signing on for a sequel, Aviators makes an incredible song. This is why this band stands above!
I came to your channel looking specifically for a new synthwave song for me.
Well you never cease to disappoint.
I had NEVER heard this song....and I gotta say, a really good one, you nailed my emotions and pulled them to the surface. BEST SONG EVER!
Love this! Well done for making another amazing number, this album is quickly becoming my fav of yours
This song is your best! I can hear this on repeat all day long haha 💖☺
And yet another great song of the Great Aviators
Another fine Avi. Song to add to my collection.
The last time I was this early, college wasn't meant to open for another hour.
Amazing song as always, keep up the brilliant work, Avi!
:)
At least I find some good creators of different music type, that respected the old types of music and bring it back to life. Love it!
2023 and still listening to this beautiful song 🎉🎉
One of the Best songs of 2019
I love this song, great work! Really fun and enjoyable to listen to :D
Your videos have improved! This came out so great! The song and the video! Keep up the good work!
This song is absolutely amazing! :)
Sounds like Scandroid, i like it :)
"Let's go save Gohan!" "Aren't you my enemy?" "NOBODY WATCHED DRAGONBALL!"
Amazing as always!
Much Love!
This song, played loudly in the car while on a road trip with the windows down = utter perfection.
I mean it's also perfect as is, but still.
One of my fav Synthwave songs !!
Amazing song you have, Aviators.
