This weekend has opened my eyes so much. All of this quality time has made me see a lot of things. And I know that our praying and thinking about it is definitely working and we are definitely in the right place. All of the conversations that have been brought up have taught me a lot about who and what I want. It really has been one of the best weekends I’ve ever had, even though it was as simplistic as ever. It’s just what I needed. I don’t think it’s by chance…You and I both know that God has a major plan. Patience is definitely the key here, but I’m willing to wait and see what happens. As it has been brought to our attention throughout the weekend through different things (signs, I’m telling you…they’re everywhere), “the best things come to those who wait”.

These glimmers of hope should be stomped upon, but I can’t bring myself to raise my feet. No expectations, no broken promises. From now on, I will only hope for the best, but expect the worst. I will still be optimistic and excited about things but I will also know and keep in mind that everything I could possibly do or say could fail. That’s a hard thing to do, to keep both sides in perspective…but it will be done.

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

[Chorus]
I am Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I’m right
I 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 intentions
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so isolated, so motivated
I am certain now that

[Chorus]

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]

[Chorus]

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