I hear the words from his voice
Waiting for me to make a choice
Should I help him fall?
Or should I keep him standing tall?
He's waiting for the answer he wants to hear
All I can feel is fear
I don't want to let him down
He's my brother, he needs to stay around
If I say yes
He will get caught up in a mess
But if I say no
He won't care and will still go
I wish he would realize how much I care
I try so hard but to him I'm never fair
He needs to see if he gets through everything
He will be out and be able to do anything
But all he sees is an open door
That he can just run and ignore
That he has a problem we hate to admit
But he needs to understand that this is where he fits
So I'm going to have to say no
And try not to let him go
And when he's older he will thank me
From stopping him from going back to the way he used to be
