I Ain`t Leaving Lyrics

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, drive away

I thought that's what made me strong

But I was young, I was wrong



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



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 shoulda 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 grass

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



Understand I ain't leaving

I ain't leaving

Broken on the inside

That's what I used to say
