Audioslave - Cochise
Well I been watchin'
While you been coughin
I've been drinking life
While you been nauseous
And so I drink to health
While you kill yourself
And I got just one thing
That I can offer
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me yea
Well I'm not a martyr
I'm not a prophet
And I won't preach to you
But heres a caution
You better understand
That I won't hold your hand
But if it helps you mend
Then I won't stop it
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me yea
Drown if you want
And I'll see you in the bottom
Where you crawl
On my skin
And put the blame on me
So you don't feel a thing
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me
Go on and save yourself
And take it out on me yea
In an interview, guitarist Tom Morello said this about the song: "Cochise was the last great American Indian chief to die free and absolutely unconquered. When several members of his family were captured, tortured, and hanged by the U.S. Cavalry, Cochise declared war on the entire Southwest and went on an unholy rampage, a warpath to end all warpaths. He and his warriors drove out thousands of settlers. Cochise the avenger, fearless and resolute, attacked everything in his path with an unbridled fury." "Cochise" was one of many songs to be included in the PlayStation 2 video game Guitar Hero. The song was also featured in the 2006 film Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. A short clip of the song was also used in the 3rd episode of season 19 of The Simpsons, "Midnight Towboy". The song was used in a montage after the New York Giants beat the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. The song was used in trailers for the film Iron Man.
