The lyrics of awfultune's song "Prologue" starts off with a conversation between two people where one person asks, "Guess what?" but admits that they are not good at this. It then goes on to talk about a memory from fifth grade where someone refused to do something, and the other person stood up on a chair. The second person exclaims, "No!" and questions if the first person really did that, to which they confirm that they did. The lyrics then end, leaving the audience to wonder about the significance or meaning behind this memory.
The conversation in the song may represent the power dynamics between two people, where one is trying to impress or entertain the other with a story of their past. However, the memory shared is mundane and lacks any real significant meaning. This could signify the themes of nostalgia and the search for meaning in the insignificant events of our past.
The song itself is a short, minimalist track with only a few lyrics and a repetitive melody. Its simplicity and vagueness allow the listener to project their own thoughts and emotions onto the lyrics, creating a unique experience for each person who listens to it.
