Angel

Roaming the hall as she’s pushed through the door

Her eyes filled with tears she don’t want any more

The last to get picked the first to get picked on, but that’s her world

As they push and they tug and she’s shoved to the ground

She has scrapes on her hand and sand in her mouth

You just can’t believe all the pain inside of this little girl

She always spends all her time on her own

Much too innocent heart to be left all alone

But she realizes...

That Most kids are laughing but nobody's askin'

For her to come over and play

She fakes a smile, wipes her tears and she lies

When her mother asks how was her day

If there's a God up there

Then there must be an angel somewhere

She keeps her head down with her nose in a book

She keeps her eyes forward when they give her looks

Holds in the broken as the days keep rolling

She survives

Most kids are playing but she’s steady praying

For the strength just get through the night

The dreams in the distance keep up her resistance

As her broken wings try to take flight

Maybe life isn’t fair

But there must be an angel somewhere

She walks through the door with her eyes to the floor

And she steels for a typical day

Her eyes meet a girl

Who resides in her world

And she know it'll all be ok

She's no longer scared

Cause she knows there's an angel somewhere
