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, and 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

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'd be in
Too deep now to ever swim against the current

So let me slip away
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away

Slight hope
Dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
