Song lyrics
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 [3x]
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away [4x]

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
Dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption

This song would be good if it didnt suck so much. Talk about a bunch of whiny bitches who have nothing better to do than bitch and cry about how girls dont like them. Grow some balls.

This song is ok, but his voice is really annoying at times.

Is it just me or does he constantly sound like he's bitching about love?!

Every freaking song it's him bitching about how his love life sucks, everyone sucks, piss on me, i'm using big words, I want you back, etc.

Please, go talk to a therapist about your love life, or whats left of it. It's no wonder that your girlfriend keeps leaving you. You whine more than the average woman does.

Girly man.

The Hands Down you like...is that from "A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar" OR from "So Impossible EP"? There are two different versions...Also while Hands Down (old version) is a good song dig deeper into the Dashboard vault...you will find MUCH better...

people who call bands sellouts are just dumb... they have acheived commercial success which is good for them... it is so hard to be a musician today, if they finally made it then their music is touching millions of people, yes unfortunately, there are a lot of 13 year old girls who will only ever listen to the singles and that is unfortunate, but just be happy for them. no more stuggling musicians, how ill.

If you think they're "sellouts", whatever, every artist gets caleld that at some tiem for soem reason.

Their music is awesome. This is no exception, even if it's not my absolute favorite.

i love dashboard! this song is amazing and it just kinda gets you.

i am flawed, but i am cleaning up so well and i am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself...
i love that part of the song, it has so much emotional memory attached for so many people im sure, personally i had an ex sing me that part of the song and i couldnt help but cry... seriously meaningful and dashboard just catches it

DC has an incredible talent for capturing the emotional essence of a moment in their music... like Hands Down, this song has some great snippits and images of love at its most honest. I'm definitely checking out their earlier stuff after some of the impressive plugs throughout these posts

Ahhh French people

Since I live under a rock in NZ, this is the first song of theirs to come out, and it hasn't been out very long. It sounds very mainstream. But it's a good song nevertheless. I had no idea it was on the Spiderman 2 soundtrack, I even saw the movie and can't remember it being on there, until I bought the single yesterday and it said on the cover "from Spiderman 2!!" I really don't get why that matters. Anyway, it has lovely accoustic versions of Hands Down and the Warmth of The Sand. I think what he's trying to say and how it fits in with "Spiderman" is that he is selfish and flawed, but he is on the right side and he's not to blame. Who knows.

I did like it better when it was just Chris acousticly with "Hands Down." bring back the better DC! They're easier to relate to and they have so much drama. such emotion...

Its a good song but i do not see why it is on spiderman 2. Ordinary by Train makes more sense to be on spiderman 2. The song is still very good though
[/offtopic]LoL i hope a bug eats them. WTF is that man
