Song lyrics:
Background Noise
Vs 1
So another bomb goes off
Two kids killed in a stolen car
A young man screams in the dead of night
A family mourns by an early grave site
CH
You hear the cries from the different sides
A bullet hits again
Take a look in anybody’s eyes
Our tears are all the same
Our tears are all the same
Vs 2
No shattering explosion – just background noise
A man and woman’s final words – just background noise
The sound of someone’s breaking bones – just background noise
The mothers grateful words of mercy – bring my son home – Bridge
Bridge
What the hell do I know!
What the hell do I do?
When every child needs to hear
The words of love in their ears – CH
