This is not a family

What is this place I live in?
Surely its not my home?
Why do I live with people,
And yet Im so alone.

You dont understand,
Even though you try,
He is all you can see,
Even through the tears you cry.

Funny how hes so 'sick',
Yet he knows he can come back,
He knows youll never leave him,
Whenever he goes off the track.

I know you cannot help it,
The kindness in your soul,
But he is sucking your life out,
Hes achieving his great goal.

Dont you know I hate him,
I sometimes wish hed die,
And this isnt coz Im his 'demon'
Its coz with him here I cant survive.

All he is, is darkness,
Sucking all our light,
And I wont stay here any longer,
To watch him win the fight.

Cant you see right through him,
Hes evil, and hes full of decay,
Why cant you see hes killing us,
Soon therell be nowhere left to stay.

He is not my brother,
No matter what you say,
And I am not his game,
That you allow him to play.

Ive tried to be patient for you,
I promise Ive tried to be strong,
But I cant be a rag doll,
That he just pulls along.

I love you I promise you that,
But I cant put up with this jail,
Because with him theres no release,
And I cant be put on bail.

You made your choice awhile ago,
And of course, he knows,
So I guess it comes down to this,
You gain a son, your daughter goes.

We used to be so together,
One for all and all for one,
Able to solve each others problems,
And also have some fun.

But the blue sky faded to grey,
The sun, behind the clouds,
Emotions were not joyful,
And talks became quite loud.

This place is now a prison,
That is caging me,
And with sadness I realise,
That this is not a family.
