flames
I hurt myself again 
  It seems I'll only lose and not win
  If I had another choice
  Believe me I would voice
  A statement of worthy opinion 
 
  I took him down to my river
  To Jesus I would so soon deliver
  Pour water to baptize
  And wash away these lies
  It's something that he just had to give her
 
  I keep my head up
  It's never enough
  I keep him so happy
  I let him love me
  The flames go up
 
  I let my self go to waste
  I wondered how it would taste
  I let my ambitions down
  I got my own new sound
  But it just won't leave this haste
 
  I took him to my bible school
  I told him secrets of my fool
  I got carried away
  And he told that day
  If we didn't wed then he was a fool
 
  I keep my head up
  He's just enough
  I want to win
  Let's do it again
  My flames go up
 
  I went to go play in the sand
  But Joshua took my hand
  He drug me to the shore
  And he had planned much more 
  That's when he kneeled and said I'm your man
 
  I'll always love to be in bed
  And let these rumors leave my head
  I never want to be alone
  I'm freezing to the bone
  I almost dread
 
  I keep my head up
  I'm getting enough
  I knew I'd win
  Will you do it again
  I think you fill my cup
  I hope you're keeping up
  Cause I did it again
  Give it up my friend
  The flames go up
