    That’s pretty close, actually. The only thing is the line

    I’ll prove it to you somehow
    I’m done with every bit (I think EC messed up a word, since she’s rhyming w/” s***” two lines later.)

    Also, I’ve never been sure on the chorus whether she’s saying “ride things out” or “write things out”, although either one would work, just mean different things.

    Other than that, I’m pretty sure you’re dead-on with the lyrics. I love that song, and find myself listening to it when I need a pick-me-up.

    Thanks again Rachel…once again you’ve proven yourself to be the sweetheart of this forum. ( Next to Lucinda, of course…LOL)

    By the way, I just picked up Escovedo’s “Boxing Mirror.”

    Perhaps I’ll post a review when I have more time, but so far, great sounding album.

    When I think about it…”ride things out” makes more sense with the following line…”shifted gears,” so I think you’re ride (opps..right) about that, too. LOL
