Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
And so motivated
I am certain now that I am
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
So turn up the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my fingertips
Trace the moment, fall forever
[Bridge]
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I'd be in too deep now
To ever swim against the current
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
Slight hope dangles on a string
Like slow-spinning redemption
