The Armchair Quarterback
Points out the ways I lacked
If I knew then what I know now
Could it be saved somehow
They say that hindsight is 20/20
I'm looking back and all I see is nothing
Ideal versions of our former selves
Revising events of the stories we tell
Painting our past in different light
Until we can't remember
Which version is right
The Back Seat Driver still
Believes in force of will
Just blink and make it so
Or pack your things and go
They say that hindsight is 20/20
I'm looking back and all I see is nothing
Ideal versions of our former selves
Revising events of the stories we tell
Painting our past in different light
Until we can't remember
Which version is right
The Angry Prophetess
Has things she can't accept
She makes promises
And some are never kept
They say that hindsight is 20/20
I'm looking back and all I see is nothing
Ideal versions of our former selves
Revising events of the stories we tell
Painting our past in different light
Until we can't remember
Which version is right
Making predictions of future events
From fading mental pictures
Of what's now past tense
If we knew the future
We'd bet and make some money
And then we'd forget
All the things that made us happy
