Fluke
Deception and Self-Reflection: Mates of State's 'Fluke' Unraveled
Lyrics
We lied in so many words
We made false statements or misled using many words
We say that we'd take you down
We claimed that we would bring you to the edge of the water and observe as you drown
To the water's edge and watch you drown
Continuing the deception of intending harm or neglect
We lied in so many words
Reiteration of the earlier deception using numerous words
We don't need to drive
We don't require transportation
Hang us out to dry
We are exposed and vulnerable
About to bust
On the verge of breaking or collapsing
We don't need to drive, oh no
We don't need to travel by vehicle, definitely not
What you got?
What possessions or qualities do you possess?
We lied in so many words
Similar repetition of falsehoods using many words
I said that I'd take you down
I falsely claimed that I would escort you to the water's edge to witness your drowning
To the water's edge and watch you drown
Repeating the deceit of planning harm or negligence
We lied in so many words
Restating the initial deception using numerous words
We don't need to drive
We do not need to use a vehicle
Hang us out to dry
We are left without help or support
About to bust
On the brink of collapse or failure
We don't need to drive
We have no necessity to travel by vehicle
We don't need to
We truly do not require it
I saw you walking on the sidewalk
I observed you walking on the pavement
Your head was taller than the trees
Your stature appeared taller than the surrounding trees
The reconstruction had just started
The rebuilding process had just commenced
And I knew we'd view it piece by piece
Implying the gradual observation of the reconstruction
I can't say, who do I believe?
I'm uncertain whose words to trust
Chance would have it that way
Fate or circumstance led to this situation
I can't say, who do I believe?
I'm uncertain whose words to trust
I'll follow it at the same pace
I'll keep up with events at the same speed
What do you think you see?
What perceptions or interpretations do you have?
The horses their collision courses
The horses, in their predetermined paths of collision
I know exactly what you mean
I completely understand your perspective or viewpoint
Cause I'm obsessed with what would happen
Because I am fixated on the hypothetical outcomes if we hadn't altered anything
If we'd had never changed a thing
Contemplating the potential consequences of maintaining the status quo
I can't say, who do I believe?
I'm uncertain whose words to trust
Chance would have it that way
Fate or circumstance led to this situation
I can't say, who do I believe?
I'm uncertain whose words to trust
I'll follow it at the same pace
I'll keep up with events at the same speed
I'm about to bust
I'm on the verge of losing control or breaking down
