Miles melt
And I am rich beyond my dreams
At least, when we’re together

Not looking for a save
Just wanna go down
Drown in a flood of memories
Of me and Sue
Of me and Sue Nami...

Give more to right the wrongs
Give more for shorter songs
Need’s a shorter song - rAveNswAn

For Rook is Hoke and Hoke is Rook
Such as reflected throughout this book - rAveNswAn
