Sanoja: Mary Gauthier. Between Daylight and Dark. I Ain't Leaving.

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 and 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
On this side of those stubborn years, somehow, I ain?t so broken any more
I pushed away what I should?a held, yea, but sorrow taught me well

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

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
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
This time I ain?t leaving
Broken on the inside that?s what I used to say
