The Quickening
Bad Religion

The quickening is an ephemeral thing 
That only happens in the dark 
Like catching lightning in a jar 
And the pain that it brings 
Is just the promise of spring 
It’s madness on the way 
Oh, what does it mean… 

To come alive 
To come alive 
To come alive 
(To come alive) To come alive 
To come alive 
To come alive 

The entering is soulful conjecturing 
Oh, lost and by the wind-grieved coast 
Please come back to me again 
Because the way that she bleeds 
He’ll sit alone when he reads 
Confusing words and deeds 
So what does it mean… 

To pierce the fame of the sacred and profane 
For science, in service of the faith 
But who will bear the mark of Cain?
