About

Greg’s take on the song:

I hope people learn to question what seems obvious, because usually there is deeper meaning to it that is contrary to what appears on the surface. There is an inner logic."

The song probably refers to the American government and the secrets they keep from the American peop...

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 demonstration
Don't look for a 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 2]
Graduated mentors strolling marbled brick porticos
In sagacious dialogue, they despise their average ways
Betraying pomp and discipline, they mold their institution
Where they practice exclusion on the masses every day

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't ask questions, don't promote demonstration
Don't look for a 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

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
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-worth

[Chorus]
There is an inner logic
(I don't ask questions, don't promote demonstration)
And we're taught to stay far from it
(Don't look for new consensus, don't stray from constitution)
It is simple and elegant
(If I pierce the complexity, I won't find salvation)
But it's cruel and antithetic
(Just the bald and overt truth of the evil and deception)
There is an inner logic
(No equality, no opportunity)
And we're taught to stay far from it
(No tolerance for the progressive alternative)
It is simple and elegant
(No equality, no opportunity)
But it's cruel and antithetic
(No tolerance for the progressive alternative)
And there's no effort to reveal it
