We Are Together is the seventh song on the album A Million Degrees by Emigrate.

Background

  • The song was first recorded during the sessions for the first album Emigrate. It was found in the GEMA database in 2006 with the length of 07:03 and the work number 9325187. This version is still listed in GEMA to this day.
  • In a track-by-track interview with Kerrang!, Richard said the following about the song:[1]

This is actually a song I wrote in dedication to my band Rammstein. I’ve always felt that if we can stay together, than anything is possible. I’m proud that we’ve managed to do that for 25 years. It’s hard to be in a band. A lot of great bands take off and then break up thanks to personal problems and egos – which we definitely have too. The difference is we’ve managed to just go through that. There was a lot of work, a lot of talking, a lot of caring and love – so I was trying to write a song about that, to say I’m very proud that we’ve had the patience and managed to stay together for all these years. Everything we’ve achieved, singing in German, who would have bet on that (laughs)?!

Lyrics

Album version

All the ways that we hold on to time
Such a shame it's passing us by
Holding on to you
Oh, don't disappear

All the roads tried to make them unwind
No windows blinding outside
So much more and still
I want to stay here

Hold on tight
To an explosion
It is better
When the sting is keeping us here

We are together as one
As one we will stay
We've been forever as one
And so we'll remain

All those nights lived out the day inside
Memorising flickers of light
See the clouds of smoke
Till you become clear

'cause all we have
Is this moment
It's better
When the sting is keeping us here

We are together as one
As one we will stay
We've been forever as one
And so we'll remain

We are together as one
As one
As one

We are together as one
As one we will stay
We've been forever as one
And so we'll remain

We are together as one
As one we will stay
