Find My Way Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lord my path has gone astray
I'm just trying to find my way

Wandered here from far away
I'm just trying to find my way

You were never meant to see
All those things inside of me
Now that you've gone away
I'm just trying to find my way

[Chorus]
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh, ooh
Ohhh

[Verse 2]
I have made a great mistake
Pray the Lord my soul to take
The ghost of who I used to be
I can feel them come for me
It looks as though they're here to stay
I'm just trying to find my way

[Chorus]
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh, ooh
Ohhh
Ohhh (Please)
Ohhh (I never meant to)
Ohhh (Please)
Ohhh (I never meant for this)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

Downtempo, atmospheric and contemplative, the song prominently features a beat loop that is constantly augmented with echoes throughout, reminiscent of trip hop beat programming. The verse vocal melody closely resembles and recalls that of “Somewhat Damaged”, while the chorus vocals remain wordless, backed by a simple high-register piano melody.

The section following the second chorus seems to feature female vocals backing Reznor’s wordless melodies. The coda of the track, featuring ‘swarm’ guitar atop the bassline and piano from the chorus, includes lyrics alluding to those from the coda of “I Do Not Want This”.
