Lyrics Mates of State

Mates of State

My Only Offer

Bought a home, we bartered right

Two kids, two car delight

Posed pictures on the walls

Small talk in the bedroom halls

Can't make it home tonight

Go sleep but leave the light

I pretend to make a call

Loose talk into bedroom stalls

Oh oh oh, it's my only offer

Stifled copies of myself

Oh oh oh, or someone else

My friends they all agree

(My friends they all agree)

Give in to our defeat

(Give in to our defeat)

In secret we believe

(In secret we believe)

We're nothing nothing nothing that we need

Oh oh oh, it's my only offer

Stifled copies of myself

Oh oh oh, or someone else

I always wanted to be the face in front of me

Debating a life sucked out the energy

Build up a wall made up of finer things

Piled it high so we could barely see it

Oh oh oh, it's my only offer

Stifled copies of myself

Oh oh oh, it's all I have to offer
