Hindsight
Echoes of Regret: Unraveling Family Hahas' Hindsight
Lyrics
Oh yes a regular Antoinette
Describing someone similar to Antoinette, possibly implying extravagance or a certain demeanor.
She rolls her own cigarettes
She makes her own cigarettes, possibly indicating independence or a certain level of self-sufficiency.
Never takes second best
She always aims for the best and doesn't settle for anything less.
I was going to say hello
The speaker intended to greet her but feels time constraints.
Before it's time to go
A sense of urgency in interacting with her before departing.
She used to be a rebel
She used to defy conventions or rules but still retains a rebellious spirit.
Still wears denim though
Despite past rebellion, she still embraces denim, possibly a symbol of a rebellious attitude.
I said that I like your coat
The speaker compliments her coat.
She don't act surprised
She doesn’t show surprise at the compliment.
She's talking but I know
She talks, but the speaker senses that she's not fully engaged or present in the conversation.
She's only listening half the time
She only pays attention to half of what's being said.
These days will all seem better in time
Future optimism that the current difficult times will improve with time.
Waiting on that hindsight
Expecting a clearer understanding of the past in the future.
I caught you sleeping in my bathroom
Discovering someone sleeping in an unexpected place.
I should drive you home now
The speaker considers taking the person home due to their state.
Every drug you've ever wanted
A mention of various substances or experiences the person sought.
Tell me are you happy now
Asking if the person is currently content or satisfied.
Halfway to passing out
Almost reaching a state of unconsciousness.
By the time you get the chance to reflect
Anticipating a moment for reflection on life.
Fondly on your life
Hoping for a positive recollection of life experiences.
Congratulations I know there's regret
Acknowledging that regrets may exist despite achievements.
Somewhere in your eyes
Sensing regret in the person's expression.
Don't tell me I didn't try
Asserting effort in an unspecified situation.
These days will all seem better in time
Reiteration of optimism about future improvement.
Waiting on that hindsight
Awaiting a clearer perspective on past events.
These days will all seem better in time
Repeating the expectation of a brighter future through retrospection.
Waiting on that hindsight
Anticipating the revelation that comes with hindsight.
