When the barbarians approach on the frontiers of a civilization,
It is a sign of a crisis in that civilization.
When the barbarians come, not with weapons of war, but
With songs and icons of peace.
It is a sign of the crisis in one of a spiritual nature.
That a spiritual nature.
We have forgotten our spiritual nature.
Cause we are wrapped up in too much shit all day, all night.
