The Flesh Is Weak - Judie Tzuke

I know there's a tiger down inside of me
And though I try hard to tame it
It's always fighting to be free
Sometimes I try to be open, but doors keep closing
I try to show that I'm okay outside
But inside I'm exploding
The flesh is weak and the heart is willing....
In the eye of the hurricane I seem to always live
I hold back affection with the friendship I can give
And when my heart's in a safe place, then I get reckless
I try to show that I'm okay outside
But inside I'm exploding
The flesh is weak and the heart is willing....
I know there's a tiger down inside of me
One foot in the doorway of my sanity
And when I call out to someone that I need helping
I try to show that I'm okay outside
But inside I'm exploding
The flesh is weak and the heart is willing....
