[00:24.49]She walks to school with the lunch She packed
[00:30.61]Nobody knows what she's Holdin' back
[00:36.78]Wearin' the same dress She wore yesterday
[00:42.74]She hides the bruises with linen And lace
[00:47.37]
[00:55.24]The teacher wonders but she Doesn't ask
[01:01.17]It's hard to see the pain Behind the mask
[01:07.35]Bearing the burden Of a secret storm
[01:13.52]Sometimes she wishes she was Never born
[01:18.27]Chorus:
[01:19.20]Through the wind and the rain
[01:21.27]She stands hard as a stone
[01:24.25]In a world that she can't rise above
[01:30.62]But her dreams give her wings
[01:33.43]
[01:35.48]And she flies to a place where
[01:37.03]She's loved
[01:41.16]Concrete angel
[01:56.69]Somebody cries in the middle
[02:00.31]Of the night
[02:02.87]The neighbors hear' but they turn
[02:05.99]Out the lights
[02:08.86]A fragile soul caught in the hands
[02:12.19]Of fate
[02:14.45]When morning comes
[02:17.26]It'll be too late
[02:19.81]Through the wind and the rain
[02:22.62]She stands hard as a stone
[02:25.81]In a world that she can't rise above
[02:32.17]But her dreams give her wings
[02:34.92]And she flies to a place where
[02:38.52]She's loved
[02:42.15]Concrete angel
[02:58.88]A statue stands in a shaded place
[03:04.24]An angel girl with an upturned face
[03:10.36]A name is written on a polished rock
[03:16.22]A broken heart that the world forgot
[03:21.28]Through the wind and the rain
[03:24.15]She stands hard as a stone
[03:27.33]In a world that she can't rise above
[03:33.26]But her dreams give her wings
[03:36.44]And she flies to a place where
[03:40.01]She's loved
[03:43.62]Concrete angel
[03:46.55]
[03:49.29]
