Shannon’s Perspective:
When all our hope is gone, we have to hold on
And holding on to each other is how we have managed to make it 30 plus years.
How could we not follow up last night's Is It Love entry with this song? Even though it came out a few years after that fateful day, it just rekindled that rage flame and felt like it was written just for us. It also reinforced my love for NIN (see Down In It and Something I Can Never Have).
This song was part of our Us Against The World theme and it was Shannon's suggestion to use it today, so hat tip to her.
So I'm just going to leave the lyrics right here where they belong.
We're in This Together
Nine Inch Nails
I've become impossible
Holding on to when
When everything seemed to matter more
The two of us (all used)
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
Awake 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 further 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, but 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
