20 Little Angels (Watching over Newtown)

We're broken from the inside out
tell me where do we go now
in these dark nights and hopeless times
when all our faith runs out

there's breaking new and breaking hearts
in Newtown Connecticut
20 Little Angels
went to heaven
It's doesn't make sense
no, it never makes sense
how anyone could harm innocence
but there's 20 Little Angels in heaven
watching over Newtown

I think about their faces
and their little hands
and their wide eyes
and their gap-tooth smiles
imaginations and their dreams so wild
My prayers are with the families
who will never see
their little boys and girls
all grown up

there's breaking new and breaking hearts
in Newtown Connecticut
20 Little Angels
went to heaven
It's doesn't make sense
no, it never makes sense
how anyone could harm innocence
but there's 20 Little Angels in heaven
watching over Newtown
