Berlin by FIELDS (IRL) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In my head I always said it would never be like this
Til we were foiled by movement
Of people and false design
Carving out an ever-changing crescent
History unfolds
Playing out like a scene too familiar to me

In my heart I always believed
In honesty as an unsung mistress
Careful to deceive
Your traceless face condemned to the early hours
Damage in disguise
Though your eyes bore the consequence of believing

[Chorus]
What have we become?
Oh so far from Berlin dwelling
What have we become?
Sold out long before the point of selling
Who ya telling?
Who ya telling?
[Verse 2]
Heavy hangs the rose in summer rain
Petalless while once so beautiful
Holding on in hope of a refrain
An admirable means to make exit
And I can't help but feel the same
Coming home to an unwelcome winter

[Chorus]
What have we become?
Oh so far from Berlin dwelling
What have we become?
Sold out long before the point of selling
What have we become?
Oh so far from Berlin dwelling
What have we become?
Sold out long before the point of selling
Who ya telling, who ya telling?
