Actual comment on SongMeanings.net re: the song “Vindicated” by Dashboard Confessional:
yup. my ex should be singin this to me right about now, cause I had to break up with him over someum [sic] stupid (apparently he stopped liking me, but it was most likely cause we were on spring break, and we couldn’t see each other, or talk to each other much.

it’s rare that song lyrics stand out to me, but this song immediately grabbed my attention. This “person A” was feeling lost and confused, for whatever reason, and is singing about “person B”, who saved them from heading down a dangerous path. I think there is something keeping them from being together - whether it be distance, etc. This had caused Person B to give up hope of ever being happy and just wanted to settle for less (“swallowed in the sea” of fish), but Person A had completely selfless feelings for them and knew that they deserved better. . I’m not sure if I believe in the idea of soulmates, but I think this song pretty accurately describes it. Two people who are meant to be together in the end, no matter what. Fate only takes you so far, the rest is up to you.
I’m dealing with something like this right now, it’s tough and it hurts - but I have faith. complete faith. it seems ridiculously naive but I can’t change the way I feel. I refuse to settle for less. I kind of feel like a tool for writing this, I just felt like letting it out.
awesome hair, awesome song.
