  • This is the girl
    For whom all tears fall
    This is the girl
    Who was having a ball
    Just a dark smear masking the eyes
    Spirited away, hurrying inside

    This is the girl
    That crossed the bind
    This is the song about smothering vine
    Twisted as laurels to crown her head
    Raised as a reef upon her bed

    This is the girl
    This the blind that turned in wine
    This is the wine of the house, it is said
    This is the girl who yearned to be heard
    So much for cradling a smouldering bird

    This is the girl
    This is the girl

    This is the girl
    For whom all tears fall
    This is thegdirl
    Who was having a ball
    This is the girl
    For whom all tears have shed
    This is the wine of the house, it is said

    This the blind that turned in wine
    This is the wine of the house, it is said
    This is the girl who yearned to be heard
    So much for cradling a smouldering bird

    This is the girl
    This is the girl
    This is the girl Writer/s: CRAIG ASHLEY DAVID, FRASER LANCE THORNEYCROFT SMITH, KANE BRETT ROBINSON, STEVE HURLEY
