Tom Morello and Chris Cornell were Audioslave bandmates and friends playing together in the band from 2001 to 2007. Chris Cornell was legendary. Sadly he was found dead in his hotel room after a show 😥

"I don't think I'll ever recover from his passing, but we have so many great memories. And I was just really glad that I was able to… We played an Audioslave show — the first one in 12 years — in January" - Tom Morello

Tom Morello shared his poem on the 4th Anniversary of Chri's death via His Instagram, account, with the hashtag, #ChrisYouWillNeverBeOutshined
"I wrote this 4 years ago, the night Chris Cornell died" .....

"You're a prince, you're a snare, you're a shadow/You're twilight and star burn and shade/You're a sage, you're a wound shared, you're masked/You're a pillar of smoke, you're a platinum heart/You're a brush fire, you're caged, you're free/Your vision pierces, you do not see/You are pieces strewn on a hillside/You're open-armed, you're armed, you're true/You're a revealer of visions, you're a passenger, you're a never fading scar/You're twilight and star burn and shade/You're the secret veiled, you're the secret revealed, you're surrounded no more/You're not there, now you're always here/You're a handsome groom, a loving father, a haunted stairwell/You're the clear bell ringing, the mountains echo your song/Maybe no one has ever known you/You are twilight and star burn and shade."
