Rainer Maria is an emo band formed in Madison, Wisconsin in 1995. Bassist Caithlin De Marrais, guitarist Kaia Fischer, and drummer William Kuehn formed the band in the late summer of 1995 and named the band after the German poet Rainer Maria Rilke. They're known for their poetic lyrics and resounding metaphors. The lineup never changed during their eleven-year career.
In its earlier days, the band had duel vocals performed by De Marrais and Fischer; later, De Marrais would become the lead vocalist in the majority of their songs.

Verse 1: Ebm I got flowers round my fingers Branches woven in my hair There is one thing that I value For nothing else do I care Ebm Ornaments I rained upon you C# Ornaments of G#m empty on you
Verse 2: Ebm Up above the clouds conspire Bound together to conceal C# In my hear the sky was darker All the names I can't reveal Ebm Ornaments I rained upon you C# Ornaments of G#m empty on you
Chorus 1: Ebm Did we cause the failing of G#m the light? Who flies to safety
Verse 3: Ebm There's no trace of where we're buried There's no proof of how we felt C# Round and round around I wound around you like Ebm a belt Ornaments
I hung upon you C# Ornaments of G#m empty on you
Chorus 2: Ebm Did we cause the failing of G#m the light? Who flies to safety Ebm my hand? Who wants to stay G#m forever empty?
Interlude: Ebm x2
Verse 4: Ebm I got vines around my fingers Moth wings tucked into my hair Your C# sex is all I value For nothing else Ebm do I care Ornaments I hung upon you C# Ornaments of G#m empty on you

Interlude: EbmG#m x3
Verse 5: Ebm I got flowers round my fingers Branches woven in my hair There C# is one thing that I value For nothing else do I care Ebm Ornaments I rained upon you C# Ornaments of G#m empty on you
