The 4th track on the original Green EP.
The song describes a father working to support his family. The constant cycle of bringing home the bacon, just to be able to feed and raise his children, wears him down to the point where once the children leave home, it is not as emotional and poignant a mom...
[Verse 1]
Mouths to feed won't sleep till he arrives
So he brings his work home
Late nights waste away plotting a plan
Tracing the steps he needs to take
Till he says
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
Eyes closed children rest unaware
So he keeps their lights dim
Angels hold their tongues up above
With a scowl shaking their fists
When he says
[Chorus 2]
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
