Riddle me<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Something you\u2019d say<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Because you\u2019re curious<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unexpectedly exit the abode with intention<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Leave me with an\u00a0<\/span>impossible Question<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
