Intro: Girl Under The Grey Cloud.

    Allow me to set the scene
    Our story begins at 2:27 AM on a rainy night in Paris
    Cue the thunder

    Autumn leaves blanket the concrete, the sky is dark
    A woman in her late twenties walks from a bar to her hotel
    She has no umbrella, she is seven Negronis deep
    And she nurses a hole she is desperately trying to fill
    Her eyebrows were plucked
    She wore fake eyelashes and a red dress
    Yet no one at the bar would notice her efforts
    Though disappointed, she is no stranger to rejection
    She has weathered many storms that she herself has become
    The girl under the grey cloud

    Continues after the ad

    As she was walking alone in the rain
    Chin to her chest, arms wrapped around her waist
    A perfect storm was brewing
    This night in November would prove to be the catalyst
    A culmination, the perfect recipe
    For the girl under the grey cloud must finally make way for the rain
    Ingredients as follows
    Her loneliness, the Vermouth
    The scratching of the zip on the left hem of her dress
    The echo of a belittling assessment she'd received from a man earlier that day
    And a voice note
    From her grandma
    That would say
    Call me, please
    We need to pray
