Metal scholars, "Fields of Elation" is a song by the British progressive metal band Sleep Token, and like much of their music, the lyrics are often open to interpretation. However, based on the themes and imagery presented in the song and also on Thread the Needle, there are a few possible meanings behind it.
One interpretation is that the song is about finding peace and happiness in a higher power or spiritual belief system. The lyrics reference "the divine" and "the gods," suggesting a sense of reverence and awe towards a greater force. The "fields of elation" themselves could represent a metaphorical paradise or afterlife that the speaker hopes to reach through their faith.
Another interpretation is that the song is about the search for a lost love. The "fields of elation" could represent a metaphorical state of being where one has found a quiet and loamy place to cherish this imaginary and nostalgic yearning.
What's your story on it? Please share with me in the comment section. :)
Lyrics
The daylight recedes in unison, this room
Buries the hours like death, in motion
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
Your name is a sin i breathe, like oxygen
Caught in the careless arms, of lust again
Nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
And nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
And nobody else can pull me out
The fields of elation, quiet and loamy
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart
I'm losing my faith in our lives apart

I think you hit it right on the head with it being a sort of state of drowsiness before you nod off and fall asleep, and if you analyze the both EPs as a whole from that perspective, you find that there's a pattern in the song structure, and to the trilogy of albums as a whole after those EPs. Song one (Thread the Needle/Calcutta): Sundowning right before sleep/going to sleep. Song two (Fields of Elation/Nazareth): Dreaming/In Dreams/With Sleep. Song three (When the Bough Breaks/Jericho): Waking up to go through it all over again with new perspective. In that same token (Ha, see what I did there?) Sundowning: Obviously about the processes and emotions one goes through while sundowning. TPWBYT: Dreaming/In a dream/With Sleep. TMBTE: Waking up to go through it all over again with a brand new perspective.

Thanks again for the insight. …I woke up laughing hysterically for the first time ever this morning. Not only that, but the funny bit was the result of a series of occurrences that lead up to it; which suggests a design. Thank you, SLEEP. I could use more alarms like that to start my day with a literal smile.

Another great insight Alex. I’d also wondered if there was a lyrical story involving the seven deadly sins in these early songs. I’m really looking forward to the interpretation of ‘When the Bough Breaks’ W O R S H I P

Hey Dale! I can't remember where it was, I think it was on Reddit. Someone had this really cool idea about the seven sins and how they can be linked to the early songs. I'm going to look it up and see if this can help in future analyses. My take on When The Bough Breaks will be released on March 25th, I will post about it on the community tab soon :)

@@alextamulis I’ve fallen down on the seven deadly sins theme. ‘Thread the Needle’ and ‘Calcutta’ don’t fit. As you’ve already explained they appear to be about the birth of Vessel and completion of that process. None of the songs from ‘One’ and ‘Two’ suggest sloth as a subject for example. ‘Jaws’ and ‘The Way that You Were’ feel completely separate and centre around trauma. I suspect you’ll fare better than me. March 25 can’t come around soon enough. W O R S H I P
