Aviators - Streets Of Gold Lyrics






I see the golden years behind us
I'm getting scared to move along
My inspiration has subsided
Without a muse to keep me strong
I can't remember our last victory
Was it the past or just a dream?
The world we grew to love has crumbled
With my own efforts losing steam

I think I need your hands to lift me
I think I need your light to shine
There lies a trail of fire behind us
From a warstruck, weary time
I'm going to need a guide to show me
To walk me through the streets of gold
When death will meet us at the end
Of our own lost and broken road

I've made mistakes that devastated
Too many battles lost to tell
If I could turn back to time to find you
I'd find our confidence as well
So please forgive the tears and whispers
If you are only in my head
Sometimes I want to think you're listening
When every other voice is dead

I think I need your hands to lift me
I think I need your light to shine
There lies a trail of fire behind us
From a warstruck, weary time
I'm going to need a guide to show me
To walk me through the streets of gold
When death will meet us at the end
Of our own lost and broken road

The last survivor of the fall
Without a will to live at all
The sun is setting as
No one remains to hear my weakened call
I've come a thousand miles alone
Passed every kingdom's empty throne
And I can't shake the feeling
You'll arrange the stars to lead me home

I think I need your hands to lift me
I think I need your light to shine
There lies a trail of fire behind us
From a warstruck, weary time
I'm going to need a guide to show me
To walk me through the streets of gold
When death will meet us at the end
Of our own lost and broken road

Aviators Streets Of Gold Comments
  1. E.... G....

    This is so beautifully sad. It reminds me of when everyone but the bard and my character survived the campaign. The King and Queen held a feast and it was a hollow victory.

  2. R.... D....

    Gosh DAMN this music is good!

  3. k.... m....

    This is like one word from Christian rock 😂

  4. J.... ....

    How have I never heard this song before? Its absolutely beautiful!

  5. P.... ....

    The chorus gives me goose bumps

  6. W.... T....

    >BE ME
    >CASTING TRUE RESURRECTION ON BARD
    > ;(

  7. B.... M....

    Did someone say Kvothe?

  8. A.... G....

    Wow this is just amazing

  9. 3.... ....

    Is there anywhere I could download the font used for the lyrics?

  10. N.... S....

    Damn, right in the feelings.

  11. N.... B....

    Every time I listen to this song I want to like it before I realize it's already liked and I can't like it again

  12. C.... ....

    This song is well... gold. It helped get through some nasty stuff so yeah. Thanks Aviators I love your work.

  13. S.... S....

    When I first heard this, I thought of one of my own characters who is now in a relationship with someone else's character. I sent them the song and said for some reason I see this as being their theme song, and they responded with "The two women who've been through hell and high water and ended up together." and that really got me thinking. It's a perfect song for them on all accounts, so now it's just their OTP theme song :)

  14. T.... R....

    I have to wonder - is the speaker in this song the watcher in Godhunter who warns the immortal 'the hate you hold, she has more'? That would really tie together some of the story

  15. S.... P....

    Great music

  16. D.... S....

    This has become, in my mind, my Paladins theme song. By the end of the campaign two of his friends where dead and beyond resurrection. The apocalypse they had fought so hard to stop had happened, and the group's adoptive son and his young paladin apprentice were also probably dead. Left wandering a broken world, driven forwards by only a desire for vengeance and bleak duty, I imagine this as his theme song.

    D.... S....

    That sounds depressing and also epic. Thats rough though buddy.

  17. P.... ....

    Play this at my goddamned funeral

  18. B.... S....

    Ornstein's theme, singing for his nameless king...

  19. K.... M....

    Avi’s voice makes everything sound so much better 😩💛

  20. J.... S....

    Is this one about the God hunter?

  21. j.... b....

    🙏♥️⚖️⚓

  22. t.... ....

    I almost feel a reply to that would be "My lone hero standing tall, moving through the pain and fall. the moon is rising as I strain my ears to hear your weakened call. You've a thousand more to roam. And when you feel lost and alone, never shake the feeling I'll arange the stars to lead you home."

    t.... ....

    twilightartificer Daaaaaaang

  23. S.... O....

    Add this to my prepare to cry playlist.............wait nevermind I'm already crying

  24. R.... ....

    Congrats on 200K, Avi
    :)

  25. S.... O....

    Explains the story of dark souls 2 so many thrones are empty

  26. E.... K....

    This song reminds me so much of Caleb Widogast from Critical Role.

  27. p.... ....

    The lyrics actually describe clinical depression remarkably well.

    p.... ....

    It sure does

  28. J.... G....

    Such a beautiful, emotional song. It hits particularly hard for me because it reminds me a lot of something else I'm really fond of. That aside, it really is just a great song with awesome lyrics, as expected from you.

    I kinda wanna hear a slower acoustic version, though. If you're gonna make one, i have a feeling bagpipes and a tin whistle would make a great edition to the instrumentation for some reason

    J.... G....

    This has to happen.

  29. H.... P....

    I wonder what a legit novel based off of this would bring.

  30. L.... A....

    This song just became one of my favorites

  31. C.... P....

    Streets of MOOD

  32. A.... D....

    This would be ideal Jaime Lannister song.

  33. H.... D....

    I'm just discovering this band and I love this music already

  34. L.... ....

    What are the chances of getting karaoke versions of these videos..? 🥺

    L.... ....

    Your funny

  35. J.... B....

    Looks kinda like Waterdeep...

  36. w.... 2....

    Love your stuff keep making it

  37. K.... M....

    Mistake the in the description-lyrics:
    Says "No one remains my weakened call"
    instead of "No one remain to hear my weakened call"

  38. M.... T....

    I see the golden years behind us...

  39. �.... /....

    GIVE ME GOLD NOW

  40. F.... ....

    I love this song on its own merits, then someone took it and did an AMV with it for RWBY Volume 6 (Very spoiler heavy, but still... ) And now I love it even more~! https://youtu.be/HOFRV4wYBcM

  41. C.... S....

    When the bard is the only surviving member of the party, there is no Traveler’s Song for the path home. Just the lonely silence, walking these familiar roads... these Streets of Gold.

    C.... S....

    Ed The King It’s not stealing if you have permission. Please take it.

    C.... S....

    @Chris Schoenthaler Thank you, person

    C.... S....

    Like it you have a talent for what you do 🤗

    C.... S....

    I applaud your wit kind, sir, truly worthy of being titled as bard

  42. W.... S....

    I always drink some Bourbon with honey when I listen to this. Whenever I have some wild turkey, I think of this.

    W.... S....

    Don t forget cinnamon for spice

  43. S.... K....

    Amazing song!

  44. F.... ....

    I hate listening to your songs. They always remind me that adventures are a hope of the past and that's super depressing. Good music though.

  45. F.... ....

    Holy crap I read the description and I almost cried.

  46. M.... S....

    Real tears, man.

  47. C.... T....

    This is one of the best songs I've ever heard.

  48. D.... E....

    You keep getting better and better ^^

  49. R.... ....

    Wait, is that Whiterun in the Background?

    R.... ....

    ReconJoltX ya think so I guess this would be the Storm cloak song of memory’s.

    R.... ....

    It looks a little more like Irethyl to me, but I could be wrong

  50. R.... S....

    This feels like it could describe someone's real life.
    It makes me cry sometimes, it's so relatable.

  51. �.... �....

    Who are you and how do you make such perfect things in different ways?! It's magic, really

    �.... �....

    You're a wizard, Avi!

  52. T.... ....

    This song is actaully gold ❤

  53. d.... ....

    Reminds me of the ringed city

  54. B.... M....

    Thank you aviators...

  55. T.... ....

    I used to not like Aviators at all. Now im not so sure. Heres what my problem always was: if your not some magical knight or supernatural being, then these songs wont really be relatable, just cringy and edgy in how the lyrics goes. Then theres the added salt to the wound of *describing the meaning of the song in description* . Like why would you do that? Not only are the descriptions Edgy-McEdgelord but you shouldnt describe the meaning of every word in your song if you want it to resonate with people from all walks of life throughout all points of time. Idk, just my opinion on the matter.

    P.S: Ill ask everyone to please be civil if you want to have a conversation about this. I wont waste my time dealing with triggered fanboys. Thank you.

    T.... ....

    A fair opinion, and not one that I will attack. I can concede that some lyrics to some songs are indeed overly edgy or cringy (Shadows comes to mind) but honestly, for most songs that doesn't much matter to me. So long as the lyrics aren't completely awful or overly repetitive and I won't mind. I normally listen to instrumental music with a few exceptions (Aviators being one such exception) so I mainly care about the sound of the music with the meaning of the lyrics, while still important, coming second. The thing about the meaning in the description isn't really a problem for me anyways. Once I learned the meaning was in the description I made it into a game, where I try to figure out the meaning after a bunch of listens and then I see how close I was. I suppose it can't be that different from googling the meaning, so really I don't think it matters.

    Then again, I'm hopelessly optimistic and view most things in a positive light, so who knows for sure

    T.... ....

    @Alexander Reid Thats one way to look at it. Its just that i personally *hate* when artist describe the meaning of their work, ruins alot of things for me. Theres this one guy called Stan SB who when asked what the meanings of his songs are he always responds with "I could say the meaning, but i know many people who have been helped in life from my music and i feel like if i gave the true meaning, id ruin theirs."

    T.... ....

    I'm going to agree with you there. I haven't really read the descriptions of a lot of the videos as it's not something I normally pay much attention to, but to describe a set meaning in your work of art leaves it in a closed method of interpretation that takes away the feeling of exploration and discovering the meaning. It would almost be a betrayal of the idea that each person has their own interpretation of things.

  56. P.... B....

    This song is literally perfect for a story I'm writing. It's a knight who rebels from his King, fights the King and his armies, and wins against all odds, only to wonder what he was fighting for the whole time, because everything he had done was rooted in love for his King and desire for recognition from him, not a desire to rule. I dunno, the song just feels perfect. Thank you, the song is beautiful either way!

    P.... B....

    I agree would add now he looks for his twin flame and hopes somehow be it stars or road or destiny to lead him to her for they been with each other through all theirlifetimes and never had a chance to meet and fall😉

  57. N.... A....

    you made a mistake with the lyrics in the description where it's supposed to say "no one remains to hear my weakened call" is what should have stood, but there is only "no one remains my weakened call"

  58. K.... M....

    I am honored! All of your songs are so beautiful. You and your fans and all people should walk trough the streets of gold.

  59. J.... M....

    Bruh I thought that was gospel music for a sec

  60. A.... C....

    This song makes me think of the Doctor after the Time War! It just really makes me think of him, with everything he's seen, everything he's done, and everyone he's lost. Especially Gallifrey, his home planet, which he had to destroy to stop a horrible war that spanned all of time and space.

    A.... C....

    Doctor paradox?

    A.... C....

    @•Alcrast • Who? I'm talking about The Doctor, from Doctor Who seasons 1-6 of New Who

  61. E.... ....

    Roses are red


    Violets are blue


    This song makes me cry


    How about you?

    E.... ....

    Epicface11 Particularly if you listen to it right after Traveler’s Song.

    E.... ....

    @Chris Schoenthaler Exactly what I did. I don't know if it was a mistake or just perfect ;w;

    E.... ....

    Roses are read
    Violets are blue
    u got me
    and fvck you

  62. M.... ....

    Absolutly beautiful. It kinda reminds me the new Zelda game Breath of the Wild. I think it fits the plot perfectly. Thank you for all your beautiful music. Cheers. :)

    D.... t....

    Yes you are, as long as you give credit.

    D.... t....

    wow I really cool I will

  72. K.... ....

    When I'm driving across the country in my semi and this song comes on my spotify I have to stop, put it on repeat and then continue driving. This is such a fantastic song

  73. W.... G....

    Any Tolkien fans here? This song reminds me so much of Maglor that it's painful. Absolutely stunning!

  74. C.... ....

    This is my favorite non-tribute song on the album. So lovely and mournful and hopeful in every way....

  75. A.... G....

    Hey Avi, in the description wouldn't be
    "No one remains to hear my weakened call"
    instead of
    "No one remains my weakened call"
    in the last part?

  76. h.... h....

    Depressing, a gem of music, but depressing

  77. W.... W....

    Aviator: *Stand up* Hold my gasoline for my heart of FIRE

  84. d.... ....

    What a fantastically relatable song! Definitely one of my personal favorites from Aviators. Keep up the great work!

  85. Y.... ....

    Stop making songs that tear my heart! :::(
    (jk never stop them but I'm still crying)

  86. x.... *....

    This song is how I feel about New Aatrox Rework. As an Aatrox Main, my every reason to play League of Legends is gone... Old Aatrox's W... His old passive, everything about him was perfect to me. I grew emotional, and this character meant a lot to me as a kid growing into a teenager, he is one of the greatest gaming icons for me. I am ... scared of change. Be it on my favorite games. Tv shows, movies, music. Anime, manga. You name it... But worse of it, my comfortable daily life. This song quite remarks that, that feeling of being on your own, and needing a guide when being lost. That no matter what, we all need someone to lift us up when we are feeling down, support from our closest friends and family, our loved ones. It's called hope, happiness, and over all. It makes us feel secure, secure and knowing. Knowing that we can get through everything and anything fate throws in our way. No matter how unreasonable it is. That is human nature, when we all decide to bear through the pain; together.

    x.... *....

    After all, isn't that what formed nations? Solidarity and sacrifice.

  87. L.... 9....

    I love this song keep it up❤️👍

  88. N.... W....

    Aviators is my "golden" brick road to freedom. (pun intended lol)

  89. f.... f....

  91. K.... 2....

    This song is like a street in a big city full with other streets. But this one is different. It is a street of gold.

  92. G.... ....

    Love ever

  93. S.... ....

    Praise the Aviators!! \o/
