Come one, come all!
Let’s play a game.
The prize:
Her heart.
The challenge:
That wall.
You must break it down.
It’ll take strength
And wit.
It’ll take love
And kindness.
It’ll take honesty
And respect.
It’ll take hope
And hard work
And a little bit of reality.
But don’t be discouraged!
The prize is well worth
Any struggle
You may endure.
The girl, you see,
Is brilliant
And beautiful
And everything you could want.
But she’s behind that wall
And she built it strong
And sturdy.
It’ll take all you’ve got
To get to her.
But once you get to her
She’s all yours.
So come one, come all!
Take part in this game!
Break that barrier
And take your prize!
Show her the world
And teach her this fact:
That wall of hers,
It’s locking her in.
She’s missing out
On the beauty around.
Come one, come all!
Beat this game!
Help this poor girl
And give her everything
You have to offer.
Show her she’s not
The Freak Show
That she perceives.
Make her realize
She’s well worth the fight.
Come one, come all!
Let’s end this game.
