The song - Concrete Angel - is by Martina McBride
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 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 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 heard 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
