Set the Stage (Live)

I see you shuffle on the set when you stand inside it
And there's applause raining down that won't last
And it's the lines that I forget that keep me around, I guess
For something better yet

Now there are fair weather friends
And there are fools besides us
Who would learn every turn and twist somehow
And they're standing in the wings, and the the half light flickering

Set the stage
Hey I'll tell you about the part we'll play
Set the stage
Hey I'll tell you about the part we'll play

Well I've been looking to the past
'Cause I've seen the future
And there's a song coming on that won't last long
And it's the roles that I forget that keep me 'round, I guess

Overthrown and unwise
In your mother's eyes
Overthrown and unwise
In your mother's eyes

Set the stage
Hey I'll tell you about the part we'll play
Set the stage
Hey I'll tell you about the part we'll play

Overthrown and unwise
In your mother's eyes
Overthrown and unwise
In your mother's eyes

Set the stage
Hey I'll tell you about the part we'll play
Set the stage
Hey I'll tell you about the part we'll play
