keep it together lyrics

When we all had finally washed ashore
It was clear there was no one else around
We declared a national holiday
A chance to build it from the ground, ground

So far away from everyone and everything starts today
Let's keep it together, can we keep it together?
We're singing a new song now and everything starts today

Can we rise? Can we get along all right?
Can we miss the storm that sucked the whole world in?
And the boats went out at night and the choppers in the sky
They searched but they could find no trace of us

So far away from everyone and everything starts today
Let's keep it together, can we keep it together?
We're singing a new song now and everything starts today

The thunder struck, the clouds appeared
Our fearless crew was not prepared and pretty soon
The boats came for us half a million strong

We gathered arms and fired shells
We built a wall around ourselves
Pretty soon the spirit was a lot like what it used to be back home

So far away from everyone and everything starts today
Let's keep it together, can we keep it together?
We're singing a new song now and everything starts today

Let's keep it together, can we keep it together?
We're singing a new song now and everything starts today
