Audioslave - Out of Exile: Wikipedia Album Entry

Out of Exile is the second album by American rock band Audioslave, first released on May 23, 2005 internationally and a day later in the United States. It is the band's first and only #1 album on the Billboard 200. Four singles were released: "Be Yourself", "Your Time Has Come", "Doesn't Remind Me," and "Out Of Exile".

Critical response was mostly warm, highlighting the fact that the band was working towards defining its own sound, as opposed to just Rage Against the Machine fronted by Chris Cornell. As drummer Brad Wilk explained: "Audioslave the band has arrived. The first record was people from two other bands with history attached. I don't feel that with this record." The album was chosen as one of Amazon.com's Top 100 Editor's Picks of 2005. "Doesn't Remind Me" was nominated for Best Hard Rock Performance at the 2006 Grammy Awards.

Many songs from Out of Exile were performed at the concert the band held in Cuba on May 6, 2005, 3 weeks prior to the release date, making it the first live performances of the tracks from this album, documented on the Live in Cuba DVD released in October of the same year.

Audioslave - Be Yourself Lyrics

Someone falls to pieces, sleeping all alone
Someone kills the pain, spinning in the silence
To finally drift away

Audioslave - Yesterday To Tomorrow Lyrics

Beauty is what eyes behold
And you burn brighter than most
I chased you through the midnight streets
To be where I could speak freely

Audioslave - Man Or Animal Lyrics

You give me a heart attack
You look like the summertime
You call me an artifact
But I'll save that for another time

Audioslave - The Worm Lyrics

Was a time early in life
When I hated everything
Born too young, top of my lungs
Sitting on the bottom rung

Audioslave - Heaven's Dead Lyrics

Anchor the night, open the sky
Hide in the hours before sunrise
Pray for me not, I won't lose sight
Of where I belong and where you lie

Audioslave - Drown Me Slowly Lyrics

I've got a will this time, I 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

More Audioslave - Drown Me Slowly Lyrics

Audioslave - Your Time Has Come Lyrics

Now one fell asleep in the street and he never woke up
Now one died in pieces in his bed with the mouth full of gold
And one threatened me long ago when I saw him
Melt in the bright light of day

Audioslave - No.1 Zero Lyrics

Listen now, let me speak
I will be the dog at your feet
And come along when you call
Be the little bird in your straw and sing you a song

More Audioslave - No.1 Zero Lyrics

Audioslave - The Curse Lyrics

Help me I don't know what I'm doin'
Help me before I fall to ruin
And if I'm blind, I will lead you on
Come follow me now before our time is gone

Audioslave - Out Of Exile Lyrics

When I first came to this island
That I called by my own name
I was happy in this fortress
In my exile I remained

Audioslave - Doesn't Remind Me Lyrics

I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
‘Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
‘Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

Audioslave - Dandelion Lyrics

Settle down now and sit with me
Let me tell you how this all came to be
A yellow flower with your petals to the air
And flying on paper wings that brought you here
