About the slide of society, dumbing downs of ideals, that sort of thing mixed with a bit of T.S Elliot referencing and the like. I remember reading in one of Mick Mercer's books someone reckoning it was about witches and covens...mostly because it mentions pagans at one point.

It's the way of sheep to be hearded into flocks and the mentaliity of the masses to be fooled. The Emperors new clothes.

Are full of passionate intensity
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity
