Birds in the background
Singing a song
Reminding me that this
Life will go on
The good times and bad times
And times in between
There's birds in the background
Of everything

I can remember
Getting the call
The sound of your voice

Breakfast [?]
Stuff all boxed up
Fresh paint on the wall

Birds in the background
Singing a song
Reminding me that this
Life will go on
The good times and bad times
And times in between
There's birds in the background
Of everything

They're so small that you could miss them
Under [?] sirens and unwashed dishes
If you close your eyes, and listen
I almost guarantee
They'll almost always be

Birds in the background
Singing a song
Reminding me that this
Life will go on
The good times and bad times
And times in between
There's birds in the background
Of everything
There's birds in the background
If you're listening
