She left the water, grabbed by a rusty plate
It sliced her hand. That was her fate
Mary looked up in dread at a gaping hole
Too far above to get a hold
Through which the moon smiled down upon here
Smiling sadisticaly at poor Mary's tears
Mary, helplessly, looked around
Only darkness, leaving the sight bound
With no other way than following the path
Made out of rusty bolts, corroding in Wrath
Each step is a crack of metallic rust
The darkness hides feats that master she must
The light of the moon, it faded behind
As a new light arose in front her eye
The burning of flesh from the deepest of cuts
Mary shed a tear, a pain wreaching her gut
But she didn't back down. Her hope led her farther
Her want to come home led her even further
And then she reached the demon light
Blinking red, with a malovent shine
Naively, she tapped the glaze
As of a sudden, the darkness disperse
A mean robot voice emerged from above
