"Follow Me" is a song by the English rock band Muse, written by Matthew Bellamy for their sixth studio album, The 2nd Law. It appears as the sixth track on the album. The song was released as the third single off The 2nd Law on 7 December 2012, just over two months after the album was released.

"Follow Me", which is co-produced by Nero, contains influences from dubstep, like the early promotional, "The 2nd Law: Unsustainable". The song also contains instrumental elements from their previous two studio albums, Black Holes and Revelations and concept album The Resistance, both of which were electronically inspired, like The 2nd Law. The beginning of the track features Bellamy's newborn son Bingham's heartbeat, recorded on Bellamy's iPhone. According to Bellamy, the song is about "having a baby and all that." This was later confirmed in an NME article where the song was described as Bellamy's "ode to fatherhood." The instrumental version was featured in the end credits of the film World War Z.

"Follow Me" was originally released to radio stations as a promotional single from The 2nd Law, alongside "Panic Station" on 24 September 2012. In October, it was confirmed that the song would serve as the third single from the album, after much speculation and debate. In the lead up to the single release, Muse issued another single, a live version of the song, recorded during the band's performance at the O2 arena during the 2nd Law Tour. It was offered as a free download on 31 October 2012. Muse released a lyric video for the song on 1 November 2012.

The music video for "Follow Me" was released on 11 December 2012. Similarly to the video for "Resistance", it consists of live footage from the O2 Arena and Atlas Arena during the 2nd Law World Tour.
