Chris Cornell » Follow My Way Lyrics

Little one don't be a fool,
I'm a wreck when I look mighty.
In Euphoria I'm bruised,
In confusion next I'm lightning.
In complacence I am small,
through oblivion I'm charged.

[chorus]
So follow my way,
when I'm not leading anyone.
Open and frayed,
when you can see that I'm unsure.
Out on my way,
I'm only pure when I get lost,
and you're only needing when you're finding that I'm not...

You're just looking for a boy,
bathed in infrared and sunlight.
I'm all polish and reward,
when I'm confidant I hopeless.
Just like everybody else,
right before they fall apart.

[chorus, different from the 1st]
So follow my way,
when I am falling from your heart.
When I'm the pain,
fever and sweet relief in one.
Out on my way,
though I'm not worthy of your trust.
Follow me down into a swan dive,
all eyes closed tight...

[bridge]
Lowly, slowly, now I know I love where you go when you're gone...
Warm your hands inside my veins,
I might be contagious,
through oblivion I charge.

[chorus]
So follow my my way,
when I am useless to your cause.
When I derail,
calm in the patience of remorse.
Out on my way,
Out on my empty open nerves.
When all you know is that I don't know where we are.
When all you know is that I don't know,
Follow my way...
