metalingus the title came from mark's love of metal...they were just throwing it around when working on the tracks during recording so they could call it something. it's derived from the word cunnilingus...but substituting the sexual meaning with the love for metal music.
i can see why you might think it to be a sort of Christian song, but i think that might have to do with the background of the musician's...cause they were in creed and you might be looking at the lyrics to see if the Christian theme is there cause of all the "creed is a Christian band" statements that flew around. you might be trying to see if the same can be said for alter bridge.
i see the song as just about someone that is trying to not live life in regret and "how it feels to be alive"...alive meaning free from regretting past actions and such. i really think mark wrote the song in reflection of deciding to split creed and starting over.
just my thoughts.
