Keep It Together lyrics

When we all
Had finally washed ashore
It was clear there was noone 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 alright?
Can we miss the storm that sucked the whole world in?

And the boats went out at night
And the choppers in the sky
And they searched but they could find no trace of us.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/g/guster/keep_it_together.html ]
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.
I feel this crew is 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
And pretty soon the spirit was alive 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.
