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

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
A 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
Concrete Angel

THE ROSE

Some Say Love, It Is A River
That Drowns The Tender Reed
Some Say Love, It Is A Razor
That Leaves Your Soul To Bleed
Some Say Love, It Is A Hunger
An Endless Aching Need
I Say Love, It Is A Flower
And You Its Only Seed

It's The Heart Afraid Of Breaking
That Never Learns To Dance
It's The Dream Afraid Of Waking
That Never Takes A Chance
It's The One Who Won't Be Taken
Who Cannot Seem To Give
And The Soul Afraid Of Dying
That Never Learns To Live

When The Night Has Been Too Lonely
And The Road Has Been Too Long
And You Think That Love Is Only
For The Lucky And The Strong
Just Remember In The Winter
Far Beneath The Bitter Snow
Lies The Seed That With The Sun’s Love
In The Spring Becomes The Rose
