Michael Braun - We Want a Test Lyrics

You want significance?
Isn't that meaningless?
Think about meaning
And how it's made
Think about humans
And what we share
Think about creation
And the role we play
Think about the void
And we're on our way

We want a test that can tell us
Right from wrong
Real from fake
Or if we're coming on too strong

You want outcomes?
What about the process?
We work to agree
And that means
We can disagree
With civility
Here's a reminder
For when it's tough
Difference now
Is union in rough

We want a test that can tell us
Right from wrong
Real from fake
Or if we're coming on too strong

You want differences?
You want divisiveness
You keep us apart
When it suits your aims
And we start to split
While you sit and grin
But that makes us fight
And we need no spin
We'll always test
Won't just accept
We can make meaning
From nothingness

We want a test that can tell us
Right from wrong
Real from fake
Or if we're coming on too strong
