==Versions==
===Find My Way===
This is the original album version. 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 features a falsetto vocal from Reznor, backing Reznor's his 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]]".The lyrical line "it looks as though they're here to stay" is also used in the next track on the album, "[[All Time Low]]", and the lyric may be a reference to the [[David Bowie]] song "Oh! You Pretty Things".
===Find My Way (Oneohtrix Point Never Remix)===
'''''Running Time: 4:47'''''
This version is included on the deluxe version of ''Hesitation Marks''. It strips away the original instrumentation and prominently features church organ and other keyboard textures with the original vocals.

==Lyrics==
Lord my path has gone astray
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 have gone away
I'm just trying to find my way
I have made a great mistake
Pray the Lord my soul to take
I can feel them come for me
I have been to every place
I have been to everywhere
I'm just trying to find my way
Oh dear Lord hear my prayer
The third line of the second verse is changed on the final recording to:
Ghosts of who we used to be
