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
 Oversized 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 fingertips
 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
