Fieldworks I Lyrics

[Verse]
Switching places was great fun
All my twisted bones
They felt straight for once
You don't need a plan
Beauty is the devil's shade
And I'm a god-fearing man
I'm a god-fearing man
You don't need a plan
Beauty is the devil's shade
And I'm a god-fearing man
I'm a god-fearing man

[Outro]
I fell into it (I fell into it)
I fell into it (I fell into it)
We fell into it (We fell into it)
Just fell into it (Just fell into it)
Just fell into it (Just fell into it)
Just fell into it (Just fell into it)
(Just fell into it)
(Just fell into it)
(Just fell into it)
(Just fell into it)
(Just fell into it)

What did Squid say about "Fieldworks I"?
Genius Answer

Ollie Judge: :

Anton [Pearson, guitarist] described this as the problem child of the album. The first idea for the track was written in 2021 and I think we finished the final structure for it maybe a week before we went into the studio. It was originally all one track but got separated into two because it has two quite distinct sections. This was the one that set the tone for the record, I think, because it had just been with us for that long.

@BlastkinS or maybe he’s reminding himself he’s just as “evil” as the bandits he cruelly murders

@Garbage_Trash i was thinking maybe the first line was implying he used to be a bandit but you are right it could mean so much

fieldworks i and ii seem to be talking about an ex-criminal working as a policeman/guard and killing bandits, what he once was (in my head. if anyone could word it out better if they see what i mean that would be sick. excellent lyrics tho)

@Garbage_Trash i was thinking maybe the first line was implying he used to be a bandit but you are right it could mean so much

@BlastkinS probably not policeman/guard but soldier/PMC/mercenary
