She left a stain
Left a dirty stain in my heart I can't refute
No, I can't, no, I can't

[Chorus]
She done worked a root, mm-mm
In the name of love and war (In the name of love) took my shield and sword (And sword)
From the pit of the bottom (Bottom), that knows no floor (Oh-oh-oh)

From the Alpha creation (Oh), 'til the end all time
Yeah, 'til the end of all time

Like the rain to the dirt, from the vine to the wine
From the Alpha creation 'til the end all time
