Lyrics:

She walks into work on Monday
Too much makeup on her face
As if there is something more than time and lines
She's trying to erase

Secrets shadows
Paint and powder cannot hide
And for everyone she covers up
A new one grows inside

She's the last to leave the office
She's afraid not to go home
She's afraid to be with people
She's afraid to be alone

And when courage feels like cowardess
It all gets too confusing
It's a twisted garden where you grow
Black eyed Susan

And your momma says Run for your life
From a path not freely chosen
You can't last
It's crazy maze of tangled weeds
And your footsteps are all frozen in the past
It's a game of chance you can't win for losing
Black eyed Susan black eyed Susan

There's a peaceful garden somewhere
The wind is soft and warm
And the sun and rain
And brown earth keep the flowers safe from harm

And nobody likes to see your pain
It nothing that's amusing

And your momma says Run for your life
You can change a path not chosen
You are no mans right
Save your heart before it's frozen
And your peddles fade and fall from all the bruising
Black eyed Susan Black eyed Susan Black eyed Susan
