    JJS: This is my favorite Conspiracy song of all time, represented here by our shabbiest (live) recording. That's okay. It's also the first of many songs I wrote about my wife, Sara.

    Lyrics
    Vapor Lock

    Who is she? You don't have a clue.
    Was it worth it, I wonder?
    Was there anything else that you could do?

    With so much time spent on the road
    Without the option to brake and unload
    Until eventually you would explode

    How long does this have to last?
    Can we put it in the past?
    This harsh reality's a swift kick in the ass.

    When you left us in your wake,
    I guess there's only so much she could take
    I never realized what was at stake

    Still we gave it our best shot
    So much fun going against what we were taught
    We were comrades for a cause or so I thought

    I wonder whether we will ever sing those songs
    Or are the things I've done too wrong?
    There's not a day where I don't pay
    For all these crimes
    And try and turn back the time

    It is so hard to admit
    What we know to be true
    You ought to think a little harder
    Before you do the things you do
    And don't pretend it's the end
    Unless you want it through
    You'll end up kicking yourself in the ass
    'Cuz there's no way to alter your past

    It is so hard to admit
    What we know to be true
    You ought to think a little harder
    Before you do the things you do
    And I imagine your pain
    Is almost equal to that that I maintain
    As I kick myself in the ass

    It is so hard to admit
    What we know to be true
    I'm a self-serving egomaniac
    Like all the rest of you
    With all the problems I have,
    There are but a few
    That keep me kicking myself in the ass
