She walks to school with a lunch she packed
Nobody knows what she's holding back
Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday,
She hides the bruises with the linen and lace
The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask,
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask
Bearing the burdon 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 will 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
Her 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.
