many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
some belong to strangers, some to folks you know
holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand
beautify the foothills, shake the many hands
there's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
and an illustrated book about birds
seen a lot out there but don't be scared
who needs actions when you've got words?
finished with the mop and you can stop and look at what you've done
plateau's clean no dirt to be seen, and the work, it was fun
there's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
and an illustrated book about birds
seen a lot out there but don't be scared
who needs actions when you've got words?
many hands began to scan around for the next plateau
some said it was Greenland, some said Mexico
others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood
those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could

Act V. THE TRUTH. (Love is hard work. And, sometimes, hard work can really hurt.)
Love is a game. If they didn't tell you before, we will tell you now. Love is a game and if you play you either win, lose, or get ejected before the game is over. There are no ties. Maybe you'll lose and learn some great, meaningful answer from it all (like if it looks to good to be true, it is). It's easy to love something when you don't have to work at it. It's harder when it asks something of you. You just might be afraid to give. Give it anyway. The heart is the most resilient muscle. It is also the stupidest. So if this love you've found is good to you, hold it, keep it, shout about it. If it isn't, then maybe you should just become very good friends. |
