Lyrics Explanations

Hello! I don't understand phrase from "Okkervil River's song "A glow": "the thing that is making its home in your radio". Can you help me?

Is that the only thing in the song that you don't understand? The whole song seems mysterious. I would guess the song is about the effects of illicit drugs, which can drastically alter one's view of reality, like giving you a "glow," and delusions, like there's something making its home in your radio.
