Mary Gauthier - I Ain't Leaving lyrics

Broken on the inside, that's what I used to say Then I'd pack my bags, raise a white flag and drive away I thought that's what made me strong Well, I was young, I was wrong And I ain't leaving any more I'm not walking out that door No more running away Made up my mind to stay I'm gonna stand my ground Stare my demons down I ain't leaving I don't know when it happened But I turned a corner somewhere on the road And on this side of those stubborn years Somehow, I'm not so broken any more I pushed away what I should'a held Yeah, but sorrow taught me well And I ain't leaving any more I'm not walking out that door No more running away I made up my mind to stay I'm gonna stand my ground Stare my demons down I ain't leaving There's still a whisper in my ear That I'm trying not to hear Haunted voices from my past Promises of greener gra** Speaking to me everyday Fighting hard to have their way But I ain't leaving any more I'm not walking out that door No more running away I made up my mind to stay I wanna find out what it's like To live a different kind of life To hang around and fight For something I believe in I ain't leaving I ain't leaving Broken on the inside That's what I used to say
