We Came Through is the fifth track on Scott Walkers third album Scott 3. About the track Walker commented: "Brel's influence at its strongest, I use it to refer to people who put themselves on pedestals. I saw a picture of a gargoyle. It summed up the 'Holier Than Thou' attitude, I wanted it to sound military and gave it the 'Mathilde' treatment. My best lyrical accomplishment. But we really failed on the recording of it."
