Broken on the inside, that's what I used to say Then I'd pack my bags and raise the white flag, and I'd drive away I thought that's what made me strong, well I was young and I was wrong I ain't leaving anymore, I'm not walking out that door No more running away, I've made up my mind to stay I'm going to stand my ground, stare my demons down I ain't leaving Don't know when it happened, but I turned the corner somewhere down the road This side of those stubborn years, somehow I ain't so broken anymore I pushed away what I should have held, yeah but the sorrow taught me well (Chorus) There's still a whisper in my ear, that I'm trying not to hear Promises of greener gra**, haunted voices from my past Speaking to me every day, fighting hard to have their way Yeah but I'm not leaving anymore, I'm not walking out that door No more running away, well I've made up my mind to stay Gonna find out what it's like, to live another kind of life Hang around and fight, for something I believe in No this time I ain't leaving I ain't leaving Broken on the inside, that's what I used to say
