Dead Air (for KDHX) 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
