Mary LeStrange


Mary, Mary, please let me dull the powerful pushing being done on your skull Mary, Mary, don’t leave us yet your daughter’s poor heart can’t handle more fret Mary, Mary, your children’s frowns will only get longer when you’re lowered down Mary, Mary, running out of air death’s grey fingers writhe in your hair Mary, Mary, your battle not won the darkness descends your life comes undone
