Martina Mcbride - Concrete Angel LYRICS

She walks to school with the 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
Oh....
The teacher wonders
But she doesn't ask
It's hard to see the pain behind mask
Bearing the burden of a sacred storm
Sometimes she wishes she was never born

Chorus: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 light
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
When morning comes
It'll be to late

Chorus:Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she cant 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 shadded place
An angel girl with an upturned face
A name is written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world forgot

Chorus:Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can rise above
But her dreams gave her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
CONCRETE ANGEL
