Glass Hammer - Identity Principle lyrics
[Glass Hammer - Identity Principle lyrics]
Garbage in, garbage out
A world of order compromised by doubt
Random effect without cause
Anarchy with no logical laws
The framework to your life is lost
Your basic program has been tossed
Emotions blow you nowhere like a ship at sea
It all seems so much easier to me
I wish there was a way to make you see
There is a way to make it all make sense
Check the evidence
Check assumptions, check your facts
Find the structure that your logic lacks
Other things you think are true
Based on feelings that you
Don't think through
Can you explain what you believe
Or do you just try to deceive
Yourself and everyone beside yourself is lost
Why can't you tell your wires are all crossed
Why don't you have the tools
To count the cost
As society just gets dumber every day
It just slips away
A equals A equals A equals A is A
It seems so obvious but
Misunderstanding still persists
Is there existence beyond what we sense
Does belief based on faith have any defense
Should we simple reject that
Which cannot be known
Or play our best hunch based
On what we've been shown
There is more out in the
Universe than we directly sense
Sometimes you just make due
With circumstantial evidence
I've never been to China but
I'm pretty sure it's real
I accept atomic theory though it
Nothing I can feel
Is there a goal for which we're meant
Is it all an accident
Is it such a leap of faith
To think that just perhaps
We're born with reason
All creation for a reason, all creation
In His image all is all, all is all
At first there was a big bang
Which made all that we now see
Before that came a big crunch of
A former gala
Collision and destruction oscillating
Like a clock
But did there have to be a hand
To wind the main spring up
Will our consciousness go on
When our bodies are all gone
Is it such a leap of faith
To think that just perhaps
We're born with reason all creation
For a reason, all creation in His image
All is all, all is all
A world of order compromised by doubt
Random effect without cause
Anarchy with no logical laws
The framework to your life is lost
Your basic program has been tossed
Emotions blow you nowhere like a ship at sea
It all seems so much easier to me
I wish there was a way to make you see
There is a way to make it all make sense
Check the evidence
Check assumptions, check your facts
Find the structure that your logic lacks
Other things you think are true
Based on feelings that you
Don't think through
Can you explain what you believe
Or do you just try to deceive
Yourself and everyone beside yourself is lost
Why can't you tell your wires are all crossed
Why don't you have the tools
To count the cost
As society just gets dumber every day
It just slips away
A equals A equals A equals A is A
It seems so obvious but
Misunderstanding still persists
Is there existence beyond what we sense
Does belief based on faith have any defense
Should we simple reject that

Or play our best hunch based
