Epiphany - Bad Religion

A new age of reason 
Brain treason to trick the mind 
What good is searching 
if nothing's there to find 
We arrive at this place 
of no return my brothers 
Only to discover that our minds have led us away 
so far from the painful truth 
of who we are 

What's right is wrong 
what's come has gone 
what's clear and pure is not so sure 
It came to me 
All promises become a lie 
all that's benign corrupts in time 
The fallacy 
of Epiphany 

Come forth bear witness 
see the profit from your loss 
Beg for forgiveness 
only after you tally the cost 
We arrive at this place 
of no return my sisters 
Only to discover that our values ran us aground 
on the shoal in the sea of what 
we could be 

What's right is wrong 
what's come has gone 
what's clear and pure is not so sure 
It came to me 
All promises become a lie 
all that's benign corrupts in time 
The fallacy 
of Epiphany 

If it's real for me do I have to prove it to you 
Why do revelations fade to cold blue untruths 
It's oh so relative 
Subservient in total to one's perspective 

What's right is wrong 
what's come has gone 
what's clear and pure is not so sure 
It came to me 
All promises become a lie 
all that's benign corrupts in time 
The fallacy 
of Epiphany
