It is the last song on Operation Mindcrime, summarizing the story in the album. It has also been featured on two of their compilations, Greatest Hits and Sign of the Times: The Best of Queensrÿche. It was the band's first single to chart on the US Mainstream Rock chart, where it reached number 35.

Critical reception
Members of the Scottish pop band Win reviewed the song for the May 13, 1989 issue of British music newspaper Record Mirror. Emmanuel Shoniwa and Davy Henderson both found the beginning intro of the track "seriously good" and even "brilliant". But continuation of it brought disappointment to them. Shoniwa supposed that Queensrÿche simply "frightened themselves" and Henderson said that the band were faced with an identity crisis.
