Mr Hindsight Mr Brightside Parody
You didn’t know it before
but now it’s happened you’re sure
always need to be right
thus speaking knowingly
It started out as a kid
learnt what embarrassment is
in avoidance commit
voice aloud you’re perfect
Now you’re calling them out
it’s so appalling you shout
send the feeling around
telling what you have found
Stressed out
if you’re wrong
depressed, down
can’t be known
cus you live with fear now
defending lies
nobody will realise
Damn you’re just so very wise
smarter than all other guys
You can only handle life
If you’re Mr Hindsight
Now your plan has a flaw
unrealistically false
you’re terrified of your faults
web of lies has you caught
somehow the confidence lives
but the subconscious exists
the paradox contradicts
falsified by your fibs
Living fake but believe
you shine a light and succeed
high up from those underneath
you better everybody
It’s terrible
you think you’re invisible
deep inside you’re miserable
you are one predictive fool
you live in fear now
telling lies
defend and never realised
damn you’re just so very wise
smarter than all other guys
You can only handle life
If you’re Mr Hindsight
Know it alls
never really know it all
unknowingly showing all
fear bestowed is insecure
you’re living in fear now
Riding high
building up your rising pride
telling lots of lies to hide
really just a feeble guy
You can only handle life
if you’re Mr Hindsight
