We're In This Together (song)
About
We're In This Together is the fifth song on the left disc of The Fragile. It was also released as a single, receiving the designation of Halo 15, and is among the rarest of halos. Live drums were played by Jerome Dillon.
The Video
The video for this song first aired in 1999, and was directed by Mark Pellington. It shows an army of Trent Reznor look-a-likes running frantically through empty buildings, streets, and eventually a desolate field. The video was filmed in Mexico.
Performed Live
Although "We're In This Together" is a single, the song was never performed live, presumably due to the vocal strain required to sing it as it appears on the album. However, the song was performed for the first time, in a lower key, on 2007/02/11 during the Year Zero Warm-Up Tour. This was a dream come true for many fans, who had given up on thinking that it would happen after years of waiting.
Lyrics
I've become impossible Holding on to when When everything seemed to matter more The two of us All used and beaten up Watching fate as it flows down the path we have chose You and me We're in this together now None of them can stop us now We will make it through somehow You and me If the world should break in two Until the very end of me Until the very end of you Aware to the sound as they peel apart the skin They pick and they pull Trying to get their fingers in Well they've got to kill what we found Well they've got to hate what they fear Well they've got to make it go away Well they've got to make it disappear The farther I fall I'm beside you As lost as I get I will find you The deeper the wound I'm inside you For ever and ever I am a part of You and me We're in this together now None of them can stop us now We will make it through somehow You and me If the world should break in two Until the very end of me Until the very end of you All that we were is gone we have to hold on All that we were is gone we have to hold on When all our hope is gone we have to hold on All that we were is gone but we can hold on You and me We're in this together now None of them can stop us now We will make it through somehow You and me Even after everything You're the queen and I'm the king Nothing else means anything
