Concrete angel lyrics

Artist  : Martina mcbride 
Song : Concrete angel
 


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

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'll be too late



[Repeat Chorus]



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



[Repeat Chorus]
