	Another off the Me-CD. Faster, meaner, with a burglar alarm and a sprinkler system. Or something. This is about as close to rock as TV's Adam can get with just his acoustic guitar.

	Story Behind the Song Conspire got pieced together over a good long time, and I think that shows. ...is that a bad thing? It used to be called "Again," but the irony of the repetition of that word in the song and then its use as the title, "again," as it were...it just made my head hurt. I remember writing the bridge in Florida, while hanging out in the time share we were supposed to be considering buying at the time. You know, like when they pay your way up there and let you hang out for a few days just so long as you go to a meeting or two? It really was a beautiful place, but come on. Is my family the kind of family that buys time shares in Florida? ...I guess you wouldn't know. Well we're not. This is one of the angrier songs I've written. There are few angrier. It's kind of an attack on apathy; or maybe it's a testament to the songwriter's inability to let go of anything. One or the other. You can ask about the "cough out a moth for me" line if you like, but the explanation is sad and disappointing even for me. Lyrics a pair of disembodied eyes staring out across an ocean of blind and smiling faces here's me in the arms of a lovely dream of civility could it be that underneath everything you've been emptied out? look me in the face i am still angry i've been running circles around your logic and your actress but i'm running out of patience waiting for you to hand me a way in and i know you never notice but you're turning up offensive again "but come on, let's be reasonable here you can't expect nothing to change" she says it with a shrug and a smile cuz she knows that it won't matter when she comes back again i think you got too pretty i think it's your contentment that's making me nervous you don't need anyone so maybe i'm not here so if you don't remember then none of this is happening "let's not get crazy this is just the way it is there's no use asking the questions that won't ever get you an answer" but if i'm not asking anything then i'm just giving in and i know it doesn't matter but i'm tired of being ignorant again "but come on, let's be reasonable here it's really not that big of a change" she says it with a different voice than she used to have and i'm upset again don't let me scream this time she's next to me and trying to go to sleep when she wakes up i guess she might just cough out a moth for me don't let me scream this time they're outside and trying to make it worse "don't you know anything? we'll just pretend that nothing's different" this changes everything because after all i do not act i only conspire "but come on, let's be reasonable here you can't expect nothing to change" and if i'm coming or going she's happy but maybe i won't be here when she comes back again
