[Verse 1]
Promise something
Kill me right away, if I start to get slow
And don't remember
How to separate the worm from the apple

Don't wait till tomorrow
Kill me right away, if I start to listen to
To the voices
Telling all the mouths what they need to swallow

[Chorus]
Do that for me
It's the least that you can do
Don't be afraid
I would do the same for you
Burn out any memory of me ever breathing
Till I'm born again

[Verse 2]
I was thirsty
I remember that you gave me some water
I was angry
Everything at once, you gave me no trouble
I was crying
I remember when you gave me your shoulder

[Chorus]
Do that for me
It's the least that you can do
Burn out any memory of me ever breathing
Till I'm born again
Born again
Born again

[Breakdown]
Born again
Born again
Born again

[Chorus]
Do that for me
It's the least that you can do
Don't be afraid
I would do the same for you
Burn out any memory of me ever breathing
Till I'm born again
Born again
Born again
Born again

One of the biggest rock bands out of Seattle, Soundgarden was formed in 1984 by singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron became the band’s full-time drummer in 1986, while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990. While one of the creators of the Grunge alternative rock and the first to sign to a major label, they only rose to stardom once the genre was popularized by Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains in the early 90s. After achieving great success with 1994’s Superunknown, the band decided to call it quits three years later due to internal squabbles. Eventually they reunited in 2010, releasing new album King Animal two years later. Frontman Chris Cornell committed suicide in a Detroit hotel room on May 17, 2017. He was 52 years old.
