Follow My Way Lyrics

Chris Cornell

Little one dont be a fool
Im a wreck when I look mighty
In euphoria Im bruised
In confusion next Im lightning
In complacence I am small
Through oblivion I charge
So follow my way
When Im not leading anyone
Open and frayed
When you can see that Im unsure
Out on my way
Im only pure when I get lost
And youre only needing
When youre finding that Im not
Youre just looking for a boy
Bathed in infrared and sunlight
Im all polish and reward
When Im confident Im hopeless
Just like everybody else
Right before they fall apart
So follow my way
When I am falling from your heart
When Im in pain
Fever and sweet relief in one
Out on my way
Though Im not worthy of your trust
Follow me down into a swan dive
All eyes closed tightly
Lowly, slowly now I know I like
Where you go when youre gone
Warm you hands inside my veins
I might be contagious
Through oblivion I charge
Follow my way
When Im useless to your cause
When I derail
Calm in the patience of remorse
Out on my way
Out on my empty open nerves
