Arab Strap – Preface Set The Scene Lyrics

I must have been missing the point for years,
I used to love misery, heart-break and tears,
But thats just a memory now youre sleeping here,
And whats yours is mine.

I wasted so long keeping hollow hearts near,
Panic and drinking when they disappear,
And Im not a prophet, no Im not a see-er,
But I think well be fine.

But first we should set the scene with some songs,
That deftly describe the rights and the wrongs,
That led me to you and my unwritten skill,
That takes a few minutes, well its worth the wait.
