Emotionally Involved

I sit and listen to the sound, your dampened footsteps on the ground Watching as you stare into the crowd I named my angels after you, I thought you'd do it for me too But I'm not who your stories are about, 'cause you wrote me out You tell me it's so nice, to have someone to call your vice And that's good, good for you, you got back on the ball No, I'm not emotionally involved I gave you such a good excuse, you struck the match and lit the fuse 'Cause you never had anything to lose You locked me in a room, with a figment of my wildest dreams And taught me to assume, what I wanted was a slate to clean We're inches from the edge, and I'm begging you to catch me when I fall, did you care at all? 'Cause You just keep calling shots, they always hit, target or not And it's not, not your deal, that I'm stuck, to the wall Never got, emotionally involved And it's not like I'm in love with you, or jealous, or sad Just tell me what you're doing with a loser like that I know it's not my problem, doesn't need to be solved Like I said, I'm not emotionally involved I just think you could do better and I'm standing right here I won't give my opinion, 'cause I think that it's clear But take with this more than a couple grains of salt 'Cause I'm always emotionally involved You kick me when I'm down, and you tell me all the wildest tales You spin me all around, 'til I fall into your bed of nails, and They say you're a snake, but I knew that it wasn't true My friends all told me not to get emotionally involved with you, but I don't do what I'm told, your iron chains looked just like gold But it's cool, it's alright, no big deal, not at all But I watch, as you joke, and I beg, while you stall All I do, is I wait, for your steps, down the hall But I'm not, emotionally involved
