Vindicated Lyrics by Ryan Hurd
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 and 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
Let me slip away
So let me slip away
So let me swim against the current
Let me slip away
Let me slip away
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
Hope dangles on a string
Like slow-spinning redemption
