Dashboard Confessional Vindicated Lyrics

Vindicated Lyrics



Hope dangles on a string

Like slow spinning redemption

Winding in and winding out

The shine ahead has caught my eye

And roped me in so mesmerizing

It's 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 tired of the corners of your lips

Part them and feel my finger tips

Trace the moment for 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 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



My hope dangles on a string

Like slow spinning redemption
