One of Rain's artworks
Xe's been a musician, so we thought it best to use the lyrics to one of xer public-facing songs as a quote
This is xer song "Night Owl"
*** loose within I got lost; I got blindsided What's up with him? It gets under my skin and I'm waiting to get wise :|| ** aimless within I got lost and I rolled with it What's that she said? It's planted in my head and I'm waiting to get wise :|| so much love I'll never know, again I'm feeling so tired of all the rest of mindful breathing It's just a moment with all that pails to notice Now figures slip and storm the sense.
