Lyrics

(Eb5)Hope dan gles on a (Cm7)string like slow spinn ing re (Bbsus)demp tion. Wind ing in and wind ing out. The shine of it has caught my (Eb5)eye and roped me in. So mes mer iz ing, so hyp no tiz ing I am cap ti vat ed. I am vin di cat ed. I am (Absus2)self ish. I am wrong. I am right. I swear I’m right. Swear I (Bbsus)knew it all a long. And I am (Eb5)flawed but I am (Absus2)clean ing up so well. I am (Cm7)see ing in me now the things you (Bbsus)swore you saw your self. So clear, like the dia mond in your ring cut to mir ror your in ten tion. Ov er sized and ov er whelmed, the shine of which has caught my (Eb5)eye and ren dered me so i so lat ed, so mot i vat ed. I am cer tain now that I am (Bbsus)swore you saw your self. So (Absus2)turn up the cor ners of your lips. Part them and feel my fin ger tips. Trace the mo ment, fall for ev (Absus2)er. De fense is pa per thin. Just one touch and I’d be in too deep now to ev er swim a gainst the cur rent. (CN.C.)So let me slip a way. So let me slip a way. So let me slip a way. So let me slip a (Absus2)gainst the cur rent. So let me slip a way. So let me slip a way. So let me slip a way. So let me slip a (Absus2)way. Vin di cat ed, I am (Absus2)self ish. I am wrong. I am right. I swear I’m right. Swear I (Bbsus)knew it all a long. And I am (Eb5)flawed but I am (Absus2)clean ing up so well.
