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
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 appear, our fearless crew was not prepared
And pretty soon the boats came for us half a million strong
We gathered arms and fire shells, we built a wall around ourselves
And pretty soon the spirit was a lot like it what it used to be back home
Far away from everyone and everything starts today
Let's keep it together, can we keep it together
We're singin' a new song now and everything starts today
Let's keep it together, can we keep it together
We're singin' a new song now and everything starts today
