"Oh, no, you tell me how I need to be

That ain't up to anybody else but me"

Intro[]

May-Jailer-Sirens

Find My Own Way is an unreleased track recorded in the mid noughties. It was Track 13 for the album Sirens, which Lana recorded under the name May Jailer, an early alter ego of hers.

The track was written by Grant herself, and is 4 minutes 13 seconds long. It is descibed as Indie/Alternative Folk. The song seems to be about the adolescent struggle for indepence,

appropriate given her age when recording.

Lyrics[]

Snow is coming down like rain

I'm mad at myself again

A little tired, even more confused

Come on, baby, don't be shy

You can say what make you high

I see the way you be lying, be abused


I don't need anybody when I'm down

I don't really find it hard to get around

I'll find my own way back to town

Oh, no, you tell me how I need to be

That ain't up to anybody else but me

I don't care what you think


Breathing, getting fire to them

Now I'll start my worrying

When will I learn that there ain’t nothing I can do

Jesus was a dying man

If he can't do it, no one can

When will you learn that we ain't nothing without you


We don't need anybody when we're down

We don't really find it hard to get around

We'll find our own way back to town

Oh, no, you tell me how I need to be

That ain't up to anybody else but me

We don't, we don't care what you think


I don't need anybody when I'm down

I don't really find it hard to get around

I'll find my own way back to town

Oh, no, you tell me how I need to be

That ain't up to anybody else but me

And I don't care what you think
