Vindicated
Hope dangles on a string,
Like slow spinning redemption.
Winding in and winding out,
The shine of it has caught my eye.
And roped me in,
So mesmerizing,
So hypnotizing.
I am captivated, I am
Vindicated, I am selfish,
I am wrong, I am right.
I swear I'm right, swear,
I knew it all along.
And I am flawed,
But I am cleaning up so well.
I am seeing in me now,
The things you swore, you saw yourself.
So clear like the diamond in your ring,
Cut to mirror your intention.
Over sized and overwhelmed,
The shine of which has caught my eye.
And rendered me,
So isolated,
So motivated.
I am certain now that I am
Vindicated, I am selfish,
I am wrong, I am right
I swear I'm right, swear,
I knew it all along.
And I am flawed,
But I am cleaning up so well.
I am seeing in me now,
The things you swore, you saw yourself.
So turn up the corners of your lips,
Part them and feel my finger tips,
Trace the moment, fall forever.
Defense is paper thin.
Just one touch and I'll be in,
Too deep now to ever swim,
Against the current.
So let me slip away, so let me slip away,
So let me slip away, so let me slip against the current.
So let me slip away, so let me slip away,
So let me slip away, so let me slip away.
Vindicated, I am selfish,
I am wrong, I am right.
I swear I'm right, swear,
I knew it all along.
And I am flawed,
But I am cleaning up so well.
I am seeing in me now,
The things you swore, you saw yourself.
Slight hope dangles on a string,
Like slow spinning redemption
