Awesome track Terry!  Sounds very cinematic meets prog.  Mix sounds great!

As soon my co-writer played me the riff in this song my imagination went straight to an alien invasion. I even wrote an alien chant.

Alien Season
Pack up your shit boys
It’s goin down
It’s a good day to die
On this hallowed ground
You’ve seen what they can do
When they get inside of you
Mount up Let’s ride

Chant;
Ensenta halli haley 
Entomba da sen
LaMari band a saye 
Dark Del tooh tha hunday

This day is for heroes 
that die for the one
and fall for the many
Just remember who you are
You fight for the stars

In this alien season
we kill for love and reason
That’s who we are

Ensenta halli haley 
Entomba da sen
LaMari band a saye 
Dark Del tooh tha hunday

Chant: repeat

(I originally wrote the chant in this
song to represent the military chant of 
an alien army marching out to defend their  
home world against impossible odds)
I personally dedicate my part in this song (lyrics, melodies and singing) to the heroic efforts of the Ukrainian armed forces.

Alien Season

This is the first of my new tracks released for the collection "Dragon's Droppings".

Thanks to my amazingly talented friends for contributing to this challenging project:

(DEATH TO THE) MIND SEND

Hail to the mind send
I hope you think you’re ready
Hail to the mind send
They hope you think you’re ready

And if you’re not, that’s okay
They don’t know you anyway
But if you talk like you know
They just might let you go

Hail to the mind send
It’s got you undercover
Hail to the mind send
You’ll never be discovered

Now that you’ve found them, you can say
That theirs is the only way
And if you talk like you know
They might never let you go

Did they teach you anything,
like who you ought to be?
Did they teach you anything,
like what you shouldn’t see?
Did they give you anything,
like words that make you dream?
Did they make you anything,
like part of their machine?

Is that what you want to know?
Is that where you want to go?
Is that what you want to see?
Is that who you want to be?

If you don’t, it’s okay
They don’t need you anyway
They’ll always talk like they know
But you know where they’ll go

Death to the mind send
We hope they know we’re ready
Death to the mind send
They’ll always know we’re ready

And if they don’t, that’s okay
They don’t know us anyway
But if they talk like they know
We might never let them go.

A new mix of this original song the Hop 'N' Barleys recorded back in 2002, which gives the track a lot more punch, clarity and openness, though there are still some issues due to the limitations of the raw tracks. 
Steve Barrodale: vocals
Ken Champoux: guitars
Gwyn Barrodale: bass
T. W. Tobin: drums, engineering, production

Can't Lie To You [2018 mix]

This song explains that love is the driver when we're in it and we're just 'taking our chances in the passenger side'

Love in Drive

Wrote this song about a girl I met in New York City... and what Avenue A looks like at 5AM.

Lyrics:

Wanting your love to come into me
Feeling it slow, over this dream
Touch me with a kiss, touch me with a kiss

Now you’re above feeling it still
Tell me it’s love, tell me it’s real
Touch me with a kiss, feel me on your lips

Because this is where I want to be
Where it’s so sweet & heavenly

I’m giving you all my love

Needing you now to come into me
Feeling it slow, over this dream
Touch me with a kiss, feel me on your lips

When you’re above feeling it still
Tell me it’s love, tell me it’s real
Touch me with a kiss, touch me with a kiss...

& when you’re far away I still feel it all
& when you’re far away I still feel it all the same...

Heavenly
