Bird’s Nest
Kendra Kimbrel
No more pain, no more tears No more fights, and after all these years
I’ve survived, I’ve begun a new life No more fear of making a mistake Walking on eggshells, afraid they would break
No more hiding behind a smile so fake Sadness piercing through my heart like a stake
I’m so much better without you I didn't know just what to do Cling to misery just a bit longer …
