An angel fallen from heaven,
Fallen from all she knows.
Down on the streets of the city,
She has no where to go.
Beauty is etched on her angelic face,
Her long hair bleached from the sun.
Tears start to spring up in her eyes,
Her life has lost it's fun.
Her thin white dress reveals,
The thin and delicate form.
Pain ranks through her body,
Her wings are crumpled and torn.
The buildings tower around her,
She feels so helpless and small.
And in the shadows of the streets,
Theres no one to hear her call.
The damsel is an outcast,
In a world full of pain,
Her life has been broken
And her heart is filled with shame.
