...like slow spinning redemption...

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
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 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

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

Like hope
Dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption...

First off, thanks to everyone for all the kind words and stuff over my last few posts - you guys are the bestest!!! ^_^ Thanks for all the loving! I'm so honored!

Patrica left today at noon so now I can breath for a bit *big happy sigh*

So slow sort of day as a whole...so sleepy...it was all rainy out this morning which of course made it harder to get up...I was so tempted to call in sick so I could do my favorite rainy-day activity: curling up in bed with a good book and movie :D *contented longing sigh* Maybe next time...

Thanks to spike_buffy I've been on a "Gilmore Girl" kick today ^_^ Can't wait for the season premiere next Tuesday!!! *snuggles icon*

Really in the mood to get home soon so I can settle down and write - talked to Karen last night online and she read "Homecoming" and loved it!!! ^_^ I was so honored...now I NEED to write more!!! People demand it so - hehehe right Candice ;)

Oh and if you haven't seen it yet, you guys should check out the music video to "1985" by Bowling for Soup - they make fun of old 80s videos - it's great! You can see it here...Enjoy!
