Arrested

I'm too involved and too invested to help
I threw it all away
Arrested myself

I received a pardon in the mail
The crimes that I'd commit in the future
would fail to alarm them
I fold it up and put it along
with the rest
You gotta ignore the warning
Sunday morning's here again
The end of another era
creeping nearer
when we sin and repent

But I'm too involved and too invested to help
I threw it all away
Arrested myself

I put up a cordon around my home
to keep out the ones that I love
and to keep in the boredom
It hangs on the wall like a portrait of death
You gotta release the pressure
built by measured restraint
The end is a perfect pleasure
A hidden treasure awaits in the flames

But I'm too involved and too invested to help
I threw it all away
Arrested myself
I'm too involved and too invested to help
I threw it all away
Arrested myself

You knew it all along
You got a lot of attention from your followers
and all of us were fooled
You called the words a song
but all you wrote was a repeat of all
the cautionary warnings you refute

But I'm too involved and too invested to help
I threw it all away
Arrested myself
I'm too involved and too invested to help
I threw it all away
Arrested myself
