I Ain't Leaving (Album Version) - Mary Gauthier
Written by：Travis Mead
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
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 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 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
And this time
I ain't leaving
I ain't leaving
Broken on the inside
That's what I used to say
