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 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."

Lyrics
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 have gone away I'm just trying to find my way I have made a great mistake Pray the Lord my soul to take The ghosts 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 Please I never meant to I never meant for this 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
