lyrics

once upon a time and it wasn't long ago
there was hometown magic coming through my radio
voices of the city and a song for everyone
but voices have been silenced and our dreams have come undone

and they don't care that it's dead air
what we once shared, going nowhere
it just ain't fair that it's dead air
and they just don't care

once upon a time, in an almost mythic past
people came together just to build a thing that lasts
it survived the lean times and the years of growing pains
but how can it survive when outsiders take the reins?

and they don't care that it's dead air
what we once shared, going nowhere
it just ain't fair that it's dead air
and they just don't care

here's to all the martyrs who were shown the station door
here's to those on thin ice with a sound worth fighting for
here's to those who still remain to carry on in spite
and here's to the villains who are bound to lose the fight

and they don't care that it's dead air
what we once shared, going nowhere
it just ain't fair that it's dead air
and they just don't care
