The Inheritance Songtext
von The Dear Hunter

Mouths to feed, won′t sleep 'til he arrives
So he brings his work home
Late nights waste away, plotting a plan
Tracing the steps he needs to take

′Til he says:
"My job is done
You're old enough, it's time to leave
This home and go on your own
I know it′s hard, but it′s not my problem anymore
Not anymore"


Eyes closed, children rest unaware
So he keeps their lights dim
And angels hold their tongues up above
With a scowl, shaking their fists

When he says:
"My job is done
You're old enough, it′s time to leave
This home and go on your own
I know it's hard, but it′s not my problem anymore
Not anymore"


"My job is done
You're old enough, it′s time to leave
This home and go on your own
We had our run
Now you're old enough to run down your track
So don't look back
I know it′s hard but it′s not my problem anymore
Not anymore"
