Here are the song lyrics, as provided by the artist:

She’s got a mask painted deftly,
Like curtains across her face.
Sunnys hiding beautiful black eyes,
And ev’rything’s right in its place.
He says: “You just can’t walk out and leave me,
You’ve gotta pay your debt,
You made your bed, now you lie in it,
And don’t you ever forget…

That I can settle this with a blind word,
And you know you’ll hang onto a touch.
You’ll never break free, ‘cause you know deep inside,
Girl, you love me too much.”

She met him last year at the Local,
Lookin’ so lonely and lost.
Looking’ like life had short-changed him,
And only she could make up the cost.
She said: “I only want to be near you,
For every hour of the day.”
He looked right through her and he melted her heart,
But there was nothin’ to say.

Now it didn’t take long ’til he hit her,
While he was leaning on his liquid crutch.
She said: “I’ve got to forgive you, and it’s prob’ly my fault,
And boy, I love you too much.”

Solo

She’s going her way down the road now,
Into the great beyond.
Who knows what she will find there?
Who knows where she belongs?
She says she’s gonna kick over the traces,
This time she’s gonna be strong.
But she’s looking in all the wrong faces,
And she is just too far gone.

It never takes long ‘till they leave her,
Stinging from the loneliest touch.
Will she ever break free or just surrender again?
You know it happens too much.
