1. An… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least two music groups under the name 'Aviators':
1. An independent electronic music project created in Vermont, USA by Tyler Shaw in early 2011.
Being skilled in music theory after 8 years of violin lessons and teaching himself how to play the guitar, he created his first EP, Never Say Forever, using the digital audio workstation GarageBand, but removed it later, due to his lacking production skills at the time.
After switching from GarageBand to FL Studio and figuring out how to use it, he released his debut album, Reflections Of A Dream, in December 2011.
Before the release, he asked the indie musician Yoav Landau, better known as The Living Tombstone, to remix one of the songs on his debut. Landau agreed and shortly after the remix was uploaded on YouTube, Shaw's fanbase began to grow.
As of September 2019 his discography consists of 11 full-length studio albums, 1 TV-Show based album, 10 EPs, 5 remix albums, 2 soundtrack albums, 2 compilation albums, and 22 singles, as well as a number of free-to-download songs on YouTube and SoundCloud under the name 'Aviators'.
His most recent 12th studio album, titled 'The Cinematic Future', released March 6, 2020.

Bulletproof
Aviators Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Words will not die
I'm warning you, they'll resist
If you dare try
Put down your guns
The more you hate us, the stronger we'll become
Take a life, silence one
Two will scream louder
Beyond the gunpowder
Hear that sound?
My thoughts are immortal now
Scream, burst at the seams
Won't let you quiet us now
Our thoughts will not be burned
By the lies spreading all around
Cry, don't close your eyes
Our story's written in the sky
You can shoot me down, but you're never gonna hide the truth
'Cause words are bulletproof
Tear it down, rip it up
Fan the flames higher
We are crying out
Like a dissonant choir
The sound lives on
And the soon the silence will be gone
War is hell, blood is shed
Show us your power
Holding fast, we'll resist
Screaming still louder
You can lie
But the truth will never die
Scream, burst at the seams
Won't let you quiet us now
Our thoughts will not be burned
By the lies spreading all around
Cry, don't close your eyes
Our story's written in the sky
You can shoot me down, but you're never gonna hide the truth
'Cause words are bulletproof
Sticks and stones
Are gonna break my bones
But the words are gonna break you
The truth is gonna shine through
Fire will rise
You'll fight us to no surprise
Though burning pages trail behind
You'll never stop what's in our minds
This is my voice
This is my heart
These words of mine
Will tear you apart
Scream, burst at the seams
Won't let you quiet us now
Our thoughts will not be burned
By the lies spreading all around
Cry, don't close your eyes
Our story's written in the sky
You can shoot me down, but you're never gonna hide the truth
'Cause words are bulletproof
Words are bulletproof
(No, you can't shoot me down)
(Ideas are solid ground)
(Words are bulletproof)

It's a genius song!
Probably the most favorite song of aviators, although I watched the film only six months ago. Epic introduction, like a ticking clock, a wonderful first verse, an incredible pause before the chorus... This is a masterpiece!
I think this song is even more atmospheric than the movie. It causes tears.
I remember listening to this song then, in the fall of 2014. And how it helped me deal with problems. Since then it’s in my playlist. Thank You, Aviators!
P. S. "Our story's written in the sky" is my favorite quote written on the first page of my diary.
P. P. S. And how much I love the text in the last frames of the video... it's so nostalgic...
P. P. P. S. Another favorite quote is “You can lie, but the truth will never die” - makes you tremble, because it is a terrible truth.

I feel like having a character sing this song and then be brutally shot by the authorities would be a very powerful/heavy way to start a movie with a dystopian setting.

And playing again after the last surviving member of the main cast slowly bleeds out in a captured radio station. It's fine though, because they've already broadcast the message that starts a revolution.

I have not.

I'm actually constantly thrown back to 2014 Ukranian crisis by this song.

Fading in a cut montage of isolated free-thinkers reprising the song independently, yet in a chorus, while preparing their own way to face the omipotent.
