No One Will Save You
Aviators Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hear music in the air tonight
One familiar fading tune
Something pulls at my infected soul
I think I remember you

I burned your world away
Devoured by my conviction
I left you home afraid
While mother's ventured out
Don't cry when lanterns fade
Soon we'll be awakened
But it breaks my heart to say
No one will save you now
(Instrumental)
I could be your own avenging angel
But this dream is ending soon
Don't you scream when all the wolves come find you
Underneath this bleeding moon

I burned your world away
Devoured by my conviction
I left you home afraid
While mother's ventured out
Don't cry when lanterns fade
Soon we'll be awakened
But it breaks my heart to say
No one will save you now
(Instrumental)
Listen closely for your sister's footsteps
Lest you fade here all alone
I have never seen a night this haunting
In these streets of blood and bone
I can't hold the beast that crawls through my veins
Sacrificing my own eyes
No confessions left to purify me
Something's watching from the skies
(Instrumental)
I burned your world away
Devoured by my conviction
I left you home afraid
While mother's ventured out
Don't cry when lanterns fade
Soon we'll be awakened
But it breaks my heart to say
No one will save you now

(Instrumental)

I hear music in the air tonight
One familiar fading tune
I can't save you from the monsters coming
But we'll wake up very soon





Forgive me...

Overall Meaning

The song "No One Will Save You" by Aviators is a haunting and intense piece that speaks of the aftermath of a disaster that has consumed the world. The lyrics introduce the idea of a character listening to an unfamiliar music, which eventually reminds them of someone they know. The character is then tormented by their memories and guilty past and is consumed by their conviction, making it impossible for them to save anyone, including those they care about.


The lyrics go on to describe how the character has burned the world away and left their loved ones alone, while they battle the beast that crawls under their skin, sacrificing their own eyes. The character acknowledges that no one will save them or anyone else in this world, and the haunting melody that continues throughout the song seems to reflect this desolation and despair.


The song's ultimate message is that in times of chaos, there is often no one to turn to for help or solace, and the only thing left to do is to face the horrors head-on.

The song is about the family of father Gascoigne. Since it's more of a sidestory told within the game, I'll tell you one of the better interpretations somewhat below (I put it far enough down because of the spoilers.) It's rather long, but there's no way to tell this tale in a shorter way without it losing too much of the feeling.

So, when exploring Central Yharnam there's a house that has some sort of melody coming from it. A little girl is all alone at home playing a music box. She tells us her father hasn't come home yet from the hunt so her mother went looking. Yet, she hasn't returned yet either. She tells us that her father started to have trouble recognizing his family, so they play the music box to help him remember.

Her mum forgot to take the music box, so the little girl asks us to look for her and give it to her. An inscription on the music box has 2 names: Gascoigne and Viola (probably the father & mother). Before we go searching, she tells us her mum wears a beautiful red jeweled brooch.


One of the first bosses we encounter in the game is Father Gascoigne, a former hunter of the church recognizable by the garb he wears. He seems to have finally gone mad, lost in bloodlust instilled by the hunt & the church's healing blood. Playing the music box seems to cause him serious mental pain, until he finally abandons all his humanity and transforms into nothing more than a beast.


Near where we fought Gascoigne there's many corpses, but amongst the cut up beast lies a dead woman, wearing a red brooch. She's likely Viola, Gascoigne's wife and the mother of the little girl.


Now, we go back to the little girl. You can give her the brooch, but I didn't have it in me to do that. (This choice doesn't affect her questline other than dialogue). I just told the little girl I didn't find her mum. She tells us she can't stay all alone all night and ask us if we know of a safe place.

There's one truly safe place you can send people to: Oedon chapel. We of course choose to tell her of this place (choosing to withold information from her causes her to venture out on her own, sending her to Iosefka's clinic is basically letting her get experimented on until she's no longer human), and she thanks She, still being a little girl, is overjoyed in how much we tried to help her. She says she loves us almost a smuch as mum & dad... and granddad.


She never arrives at Oedon chapel... The great bridge is closed during the hunt, and the only way to Oedon chapel is through the sewers. She got eaten by an enormous maneater boar blocking her passage. If we return later to the little girl's house, we notice her older sister has returned home. She, upon hearing the terrible news of her familt, commits suicide.


What's truly sad is that the little girl probably would've encountered someone known if she had gotten past that monstrous pig. Just slightly further after leaving the sewers lies the tomb below Oedon chapel (the place where you killed Gascoigne).

We are warned by Eileen the Crow, a hunter who hunts other hunters that have gone blooddrunk, that a now mad hunter, Henryk, roams there. He's her mark, and she will go take him down (Eileen is old, but stubborn. She needs our help taking down Henryk, even if she won't admit it).

We learn later that Henryk was Gascoigne's hunting partner, and because the little girl mentioned a grandfather, he's probably also Viola's father.

Gascoigne kills Viola, we kill Gascoigne. The little girl dies trying to get to safety, her sister jumps to her death out of despair. Henryk falls into madness after finding his daughter and best friend dead, so we must kill Henryk.

"Beasts all over the shop... You'll be one of them... Sooner or later."

One of Bloodborne's most chilling lines of dialog, especially when you really take into consideration what you're doing.

NorisTS

Finishing off old yharnam like the church intended meanwhile killing djura's friends and himself then when the hunt is over and you start having nightmares about the past you'll slaughter a bunch of peacefull villagers and anyone protecting them just out of curiosity like the old hunters did for eyes meanwhile you rob a mom of her infant

Pity they deleted his first encounter dialogue.
Meeting him before the fight would have had even more of a impact

"Sometimes the worst things are done with the best of intentions..." All Father Gascoigne wanted was to make his family safe, but in the end, he helped usher in their doom.

As the saying goes, "The road to Hell is paved with good intentions".

Laurence tried to used the old blood as a healing resource to cure all diseases but everyone turned into beasts because of him

lindinle

@moonlight so the only way for the hunt to end is for the blood to end. in ALL its forms.

Grim The Reaper

@Warrior1Spartan "so they say"

Mage Black

Such a sad story with a grand lesson. Though, which lesson is true?
