it was after midnight when the truck drivers called to hear their songs
it was my broadcast to the lonely transmitting til the early dawn
im thinking about those days long ago looking down from this mountain
its funny how i found myself back then while i was busy trying to be someone else true believer radio
all i had was my stack of songs and my own rules to play by
now im here with my painted rose and all i learned talking through that microphone true believer radio true believer radio
i travelled through the airwaves bouncing with the sounds of all my heroes
creating the sound track of myself through a maze of ones and zeroes

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
