This is the first of my new tracks released for the collection "Dragon's Droppings". It's a crazy prog-fusion blitz that makes a timely statement about the destructive influence of some political movements. Lyrics are below. Thanks to my amazingly talented friends for contributing to this challenging project:
Doug Simpson - lead and backing vocals
Pete Nielsen - rhythm and lead guitars
Marco Meniconi - bass
T. W. Tobin - drums, keys, programming, engineering, mastering

(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.
