Inner Logic lyrics

[Verse 1]

Automatons with business suits swinging black boxes

Sequestering the blueprints of daily life

Contented, free of care, they rejoice in morning ritual

As they file like drone ant colonies to their office in the sky

[Pre-Chorus]

I don't ask questions, don't promote demonstrations

Don't look for new consensus, don't stray from constitution

If I pierce the complexity, I won't find salvation

Just the bald and overt truth of the evil and deception

[Chorus]

There is an inner logic

And we're taught to stay far from it

It is simple and elegant

But it's cruel and antithetic

And there's no effort to reveal it

[Verse 3]

Graduated mentors stroll in marbled brick porticos

In sagacious dialog they despise their average ways

Betraying pomp and discipline, they mold their institution

Where they practice exclusion on the masses every day

[Verse 4]

Decorated warriors drill harmless kids on pavement

Simulating tyranny under red alert

Protecting the opulent and staging moral standard

They expect redemption of character and self-growth

(No equality, no opportunity

No tolerance for the progressive alternative)
