Bad Religion - The Quickening Lyrics
The quickening is an ephemeral thingThat only happens in the darkLike catching lightning in a jarAnd the pain that it bringsIs just the promise of springIt’s madness on the wayOh, what does it mean…To come aliveTo come aliveTo come alive(To come alive) To come aliveTo come aliveTo come aliveThe entering is soulful conjecturingOh, lost and by the wind grieved ghostPlease come back to me againBecause the way that she bleedsIs in the law that he readsConfusing words and deedsSo what does it mean…[Chorus]To pierce the vein of the sacred and profanePoor science, in service of a faithBut who will bear the mark of Cain?[Chorus]
