She walks to school with the lunch she
packed
Nobody knows what she's holdin' back
Wearin the same
dress she wore yesterday
She hides the bruises with linen and
lace
The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask
Its hard to
see the pain behind the mask
Bearing the burden of a secret
storm
Sometimes she wishes she was never born
Through the
wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that
she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she
flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete angel
Somebody
cries in the middle of the night
The neighbors hear, but they turn
out the lights
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
When
morning comes it'll be too late
Through the wind and the
rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise
above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place
where she's loved
Concrete angel
A statue stands in a
shaded place
An angel girl with an upturned face
A name is
written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world
forgot
Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a
stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give
her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete
angel.
