concrete angel is a great song,
though i can point out where is goes wrong,
the girl shouldn't die at such a young age,
she should be older and filled with rage.

Live to her teens and know everything isn't as it seems,
she lives only on hopes and dreams,
she should know when she's 18 she can leave,
till them her mother she must deceive.

she'll write a song about her past,
the words on paper will forever last,
a song about a girl that was battered,
but lived to see her life mattered.

the words will travel from ear to ear,
and one day she knows her mother will hear,
her song about her terrible past,
and be happy that she was able to last.
