About Vindicated

Released on the 2004 soundtrack for Spider-Man 2. After having received a special screening of the film, Carrabba penned “Vindicated” in a matter of minutes, inspired by and reflecting the theme of the film. However, in an interview with Rolling Stone, Chris said that the song was less about Peter and more about “the emotions of being a young adult.” .

Vindicated Lyrics

[00:26.13] Hope dangles on a string
[00:30.20] Like slow spinning redemption
[00:32.52] Winding in and winding out
[00:35.53] The shine of it has caught my eye
[00:38.68] And roped me in
[00:40.08] So mesmerizing
[00:42.75] So hypnotizing
[00:45.39] I am captivated, I am
[00:49.13] Vindicated, I am selfish, I am wrong
[00:53.27] I am right, I swear I'm right
[00:56.16] Swear I knew it all along
[00:58.85] And I am flawed
[01:01.43] But I am cleaning up so well
[01:04.65] I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
[01:10.24] So clear like the diamond in your ring
[01:14.50] Cut to mirror your intention
[01:17.56] Oversized and overwhelmed
[01:20.07] The shine of which has caught my eye
[01:23.21] And rendered me
[01:24.68] So isolated
[01:27.65] So motivated
[01:29.81] I am certain now that I am
[01:33.93] Vindicated, I am selfish, I am wrong
[01:37.91] I am right, I swear I'm right
[01:40.77] Swear I knew it all along
[01:43.49] And I am flawed
[01:46.09] But I am cleaning up so well
[01:49.39] I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
[01:57.62] So turn up the corners of your lips
[02:01.63] Part them and feel my fingertips
[02:04.48] Trace the moment fall forever
[02:09.96] Defense is paper thin
[02:12.24] Just one touch and I'll be in
[02:14.91] Too deep now to ever swim against the current
[02:18.99] So let me slip away, so let me slip away
[02:24.72] So let me slip away, so let me slip against the current
[02:30.48] So let me slip away, so let me slip away
[02:35.85] So let me slip away, so let me slip away
[02:43.52] Vindicated, I am selfish, I am wrong
[02:47.91] I am right, I swear I'm right
[02:50.72] Swear I knew it all along
[02:53.39] And I am flawed
[02:56.07] But I am cleaning up so well
[02:58.75] I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
[03:04.94] Slight hope dangles on a string
[03:09.51] Like slow spinning redemption
[03:11.25]
