knuckle down

• albüme adını veren parçanın sözleri ise şöyledir:
  
  that's just my cowgirl alter-ego
  riding on her bar room bull
  dripping with the sweat of irony
  as the cowboys whoop and drool
  shooting glances at the mirror
  to see if her scar is showing
  she is truly going nowhere tonight
  
  lecherous old lady wanna-be
  much too young and shy
  flailing her whole life
  just thinking she can teach herself to fly
  vehement romantic
  frantic for forever right now
  but forever's going nowhere tonight
  
  sick of goading her self-loathing
  she thinks, i think i'd better leave
  'course whiskey makes me smarter
  and i'm happy as can be
  but please excuse me darlin
  it's not you
  it's me
  
  and there's a dusty old dust storm on mars, they say
  so tonight you can't see it too clear
  still i stood in line to look through their telescope
  looked like a distant ship light
  as seen from a foggy pier
  and i know that i was warned
  still it was not what i hoped
  yes i know that i was warned
  still it was not what i hoped
  
  i think i'm done gunnin to get closer
  to some imagined bliss
  i gotta knuckle down
  and just be ok with this
  i'm gonna knuckle down
  just be ok with this
  'course that star struck girl is already someone i miss
  
  i swear some stuff you just see better from further away
  and i think i communicate best now, the less i say
  and i can't dance if the band can't play
  and the vibe is going nowhere tonight
  
  'cuz somewhere between hollywood and its pretty happiness
  and an anguish so infinite it's anybody's guess
  is a place where people are all teachers
  and this just one long class
  and that ass will get you nowhere tonight
  
  there's a dusty old dust storm on mars they say
  so tonight you can't see it too clear
  still i stood in line to look through their telescope
  looked like a distant ship light
  as seen from a foggy pier
  and i know that i was warned
  still it was not what i hoped
  yeah i know that i was warned
  still it was not what i hoped
  
  i think i'm done gunnin to get closer
  to some imagined bliss
  i gotta knuckle down
  just be ok with this
  gotta knuckle down
  just be ok with this
  
  'course that star struck girl
  is already someone i miss
