We cried out, wizened and wearied
A wilderness is not a home
Called apostates for asking for water
And then we knew we're alone
At Massah, we asked the questions
And we watched our why's rust
Told again and again, He is who He is
But that's not something to trust
You gotta test sometimes
You gotta test to see
The answers are sometimes disturbing
But it's better to know than believe
Ever since we've known God, we've known evil
Both made us part of their game
Both play for control and for power
No surprise they're one and the same
At Massah, it was time for changing
And we found a new path
Told again and again, He is who He is
So we set aside faith for facts
You gotta test sometimes
You gotta test to see
The answers are sometimes disturbing
But it's better to know than believe
After Massah, nothing was easy
Even though we were blind no more
No more did we say, He is who He is
We found meaning in the absurd
You gotta test sometimes
You gotta test to see
The answers are sometimes disturbing
But it's better to know than believe
