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
