Audioslave were formed in 2000 from the ashes of Rage Against the Machine. It was when the three remaining members (Tom Morello, Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk) jammed with ex-Soundgarden vocalist Chris Cornell that the touch paper was lit producing a rich, produced rock sound which owed more to the polished influence of Soundgarden than the rougher RATM.
I've got a will this time don't care what you say I've got a feeling this will all go away It's in the wind this time it's in the southern sky I can't walk on water yet won't even try
[Chorus] So drown me slowly Enclose me Drown me slowly alright Drown me slowly Enfold me Drown me slowly
All that I took with me was a bad taste in my mouth Went all around the world just couldn't spit it out Just like ground zero was the surface of the sun That's a sickness I can't fix it not all at once
[Chorus] So drown me slowly Enclose me Drown me slowly alright Drown me slowly Enfold me Drown me slowly
Don't let them take you down You'll leave a better world than you found Don't let them take you down You'll leave a better world than you found Don't let them take you down Don't let them take you down Don't let them take you down Don't let them take you down
[Chorus] So drown me slowly Enclose me Drown me slowly alright Drown me slowly Enfold me Drown me slowly
