    "Concrete Angels" is the main theme of the song is child abuse. The song tells a story about a little girl (named Angela Carter in the music video) who's trying to deal with abuse from her alcoholic mother. Some people, including the girl's teacher, seem to notice signs of abuse, but just try to ignore it. Ultimately, the little girl is killed when her mother beats her to death in a drunken rage. McBride says the song is a true story - it was about her niece. Her mother and father split one day, and her niece's mom started abusing her. She died one day. The song was dedicated to McBride's niece's memory.
