All I'm offering you is love
What is it you're so afraid of
When you hurt and you hide all away
I implore you to take me on
I reach for you and then you're gone
Now I call out and ask you to stay
But the flesh is weak and my will's not strong
I tried so hard but I can't hold on
I lived my life by my lust so long
And I hate myself for what I've become
I hurt myself so I don’t feel numb
It feels so right when it’s all so wrong
The flesh is weak and my will's not strong
The flesh is weak, my will's not strong
We're both alone in our separate rooms
Rubbing salt into open wounds
Bashing heads against the walls
In our worlds we fail and fall
‘Cause the flesh is weak and my will's not strong
I tried so hard but I can't hold on
I lived my life by my lust so long
And I hate myself for what I've become
I hurt myself so I don’t feel numb
It feels so right when it’s all so wrong
The flesh is weak and my will's not strong
The flesh is weak, my will's not strong
All the failings of my feelings
Dashed against the walls and ceilings
I was standing, now I'm kneeling
Vulnerability revealing
If you were here today
Than our tomorrows could be better
I'd be your raft to cling to
Get you through this stormy weather
All I'm offering you is love
What is it you're so afraid of
When you hurt and you hide all away
When you're lost and you have no hope
Stand by me we'll find ways to cope
Where there's will we can still find a way
You are all that I want to keep
But the flesh and my will is weak
You are all that I want to keep
But the flesh and my will is weak
