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'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
Slight hope
It dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
