| Somekid i believe you might be right. It seems like alot of Wiretap Scars has been written about the break-up of a girl,it must have played a big part in Jims life, but who knows we could all be wrong....only Sparta knows...Anyways this song kicks ass. | |

| This song is simply amazing. It's the one that got me hooked on Sparta and remains one of my favorites. Anyway, I think it's about this girl who has become a different person. "I'll try to find to find a place in your new life" may refer to him trying to be a part of this girl's new persona or whatever. And the chorus is talking about how she tries to hide who she used to be with "cover your tracks" and such. I don't know, I may be off but that's what I think. Great song. Love the part where the second guitar kicks in. | |

| to me, this song is about a man's struggle to let go of something-maybe a girl-that is not good for him.......and the pain it unleashes | |
